Welcome to Dharmasaastha Temple

It was a humble beginning of few Ayyappa devotees of the adjoining areas, to celebrate Ayyappa Pooja during the Mandalam season in 1995. A large participation and keen interest of the devotees, made this samithi in a wider manner. The Samithi has registered in Delhi under Societies Act, in the Name of “Pushpvihar Ayyappa Sewa Samithi”. Then the Samithi took a step forward with the aim of constructing a Ayyappa Temple in the south Delhi near Pushpvihar, Saket, and continued to celebrate every Mandalam season with Pooja and Annadanam etc.

Mythological Importance

The land earmarked for this temple has been of great religious and spiritual importance as it was deeply associated with our Hindu mythology as famous Astrologers revealed it. According to the astrologers, it was the place where the Pandavas lived during the period of their exile. The Arjun middle pandava did a fervent penance to acquire the holy boon called ‘Pashupatham’ from Lord Shiva, who is the custodian of it.
