The Project

 

 

The Project


The BAPS Shree Swaminarayan Mandir ( Hindu Temple) and Cultural Complex will become a new center for the ongoing spiritual, social and charitable work of the BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha. The new complex will be built on a 20- acre site, just northeast of the 71 Freeway, set between Monte Vista   and Central Avenues in the City of Chino Hills, California.

The cultural complex will become a unique resource for Chino Hills, and also will generate ancillary economic benefits. The project will beautify the freeway corridor, creating new, open, public spaces with beautiful gardens, walkways, fountains and other landscaping. Both the temple and its grounds, and the cultural complex itself, will be open to the general public for visitation. The cultural complex will provide unique educational opportunities for the surrounding community and schools.


The Cultural Complex will aim to:

•  Meet the needs of our changing world to improve the quality of life
    as a whole.
•  Promote inter-religious and inter-cultural harmony.
•  Channel the creative energy of the younger generation.
•  Create a society free of addiction, violence, crime and drugs.
•  Nurture a society that is morally, spiritually and socially strong.
•  Provide a means for knowledge seekers to complete their spiritual
    quest.
