Shree Balaji Sannidhi

Everybody has ups and downs in their life. Even we were experiencing a severe low during December 2013. When we went to Raghavendra Matha in Jogeshwari, Mumbai, they told us that there is another Raghavendra Matha in Virar. We also thought perhaps that would be closer to our place. When I went about searching for the phone number and address on the net, I found a Balaji temple close to our place. When we started visiting this temple, slowly our difficulties started disappearing one by one.

The Garbhagriha of Nagaraja is also small and is located on the left side of the main sanctum sanctorium.

On the right side of the main Garbhagriha is located a permanent stage made of concrete and tiles. This stage is often occupied by the wedded couple during their marriage. The stage often hosts music programmes and Yakshgana performances. Every normal day, on the other hand sees the residents of the Matha together with devotees sing Bhajans in front of the stage after placing photograph of  Balaji and Satyanarayana. On the right side of the stage is located the office. They are planning to introduce black stone idols of Ganapathy and Padmavati as well. There is even one large deepa stambha in the compound, which has a high roof, protecting the compound from weather changes.
