Shri Hari Mandir, Porbandar, Gujarat

Porbandar celebrates Krishna in more modern structures too. Very close to the airport is the Sri Hari Mandir, also called the Sandipani Temple. There are five shikars, or spires, in the temple. The sculptures on the doors and pillars are magnificent. Shri Lakshmi Narayan is the principal deity housed in the sanctum sanctorum.

Shri Hari Mandir, one of the temples in Saurashtra, Gujarat, was built with love and took eight years to complete. Shri Hari Mandir was perhaps Pujya Bhaishri's most beautiful, albeit difficult, vision, which was pushed by Pujya Krishnashankar Dadaji, who would mention the necessity for a temple at Sandipani on each visit. It is situated between the two renowned temples of Dwarka and Somnath and is supported by 66 segments, measuring 105 feet and covered by wonderfully cut vaults. It is possibly the greatest temple in Gujarat, India. The chapel is surrounded by a meandering, aimless nursery that smells deliciously of blooms. Within glows in the evenings, greeting all with a wonderful, warm, and friendly hello.

The incredible subtleties on the parts would take a long time to fully appreciate. Inside, white marble cools the air while highlighting the magnificent colors of divine creatures and craftsmanship that adorns the wide areas. The beautifully organized commitments of vegetables and food sources, which date back to the temple's early stages of development, are a source of honor and beauty in and of themselves. The divinities inside are the embodiment of Pujya Bhaishri's certainty and determination, while the plan is visual happiness.

Shri Lakshmi Narayan Bhagavan, Shri Radha Krishna Bhagavan, Shri Janki Vallabh Bhagavan, Shri Chandramauleshwar Bhagavan, Shri Karunamayi Maa, Shri Ganesh Bhagavan, Shri Hanumanji, and Shri Veda Bhagavan are among the heavenly creatures who reside in Shri Hari Mandir. According to Pujya Bhaishri's vision, the temple provides sufficient planning in executing customs for the Rishikumars of Sandipani, and the Mandir transforms into a place of convergence of culture and supernatural qualities.

According to Pujya Bhaishri, the temple was erected to offer Rishikul students actual instruction in performing Hindu rites. Currently, the temple is one of the most prestigious educational institutions offering Vedic education. The temple was finished in 2006, and a festival called 'Sandipani Mandir Mahotsav' was held to commemorate the occasion. The temple features an auditorium that can seat 2000 people and is used for cultural and spiritual events.
