Koustubha Pancharatra Agama Samsthanam (KPAS) Temple, now known as Sri Mahalakshmi Temple, began with a divine vision. Sri Pradeep Archakam, a highly respected priest from a lineage of swayam acharyas, had a vision in 2012 in which Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi herself appeared in his dream, urging him to build a temple in her honor. This vision soon materialized when a devotee gifted him a Mahalakshmi idol, and shortly the temple was registered. Since 2014 the temple has been conducting religious programs at Sri Pradeep residence in Fremont, later in Pleasanton, in Sunnyvale and now in San Jose. With growing devotion and support, it is now time to move into a dedicated space for the deities and the community.

Mission

A temple devoted to Absolute Surrender to Lord Sriman Narayana through Sri Mahalakshmi as a sure way to attain Salvation.

Activities

We carry out the temple mission through a multi-pronged approach: practicing faith through regular religious programs, strengthening the community through educational programs, cultural events, and serving the community through outreach efforts like annadhanam.

• Practicing faith through regular religious programs such as monthly thirumanjanam on thiruaardhra nakshatram for Sri Ramar and acharya Sri Ramanujar, kalyanotsavams, dolai utsavams, thivaaradhanam, etc.
• Strengthening and providing space for the Hindu community through educational classes, upanyasams, reciting 4000 divyaprabhandham, the vedas, & stotra padams with help of goshti swamins along with bhagavathas.
• Giving back to the community through outreach programs like annadhanam/Preeti bhojan/ Thadhiaaradhanai, and providing common space for Hindus to find their community.
