Ratings & Reviews for Hindu Priest
Sridhar priest exceeded our expectations with his exceptional service! He performed Ganapathi Homam, Navagraha Pooja, Durga Pooja and hayagreevar homam at our home with utmost dedication and attention to detail. His ability to explain cultural significance through storytelling captivated our kids, making the experience enjoyable for all. We're extremely satisfied with his professionalism, patience, and timely execution. Sridhar Vathiar will undoubtedly be our go-to priest for future ceremonies. Highly recommended!
We know Gopal ji from the last 13 years. He performed various pooja at my home. He has in-depth knowledge of Vedic rituals and performs them to Yajmaans utmost satisfaction. He is simply Amazing. Always right on time and very accommodating to his yajmaan's needs. below pictures are some examples. I have pictures from many more rituals.
Thank you Pandit ji for helping us do the housewarming. Excellent puja and Homa with detailed explanation of the rituals. Very kind and patient.
Pandit Tirumala was very professional. We had to arrange a short wedding ceremony for our son in Austin while we lived in New York. We talked to Pandit over the phone and he agreed to perform the ceremony within allotted time. We asked him to come for a rehearsal with a short notice and he did show up. The first photo is Pandit being picked up by an ATV as the wedding was held outdoor in a large ranch. He was very pleasant. The actual ceremony happened 2 days later. He came on time to the venue, and conducted the ceremony when his time came. The wedding setup was fairly simple and was arranged to accommodate 4 different religious ceremonies. He guided the Western audience by clapping at the right moment, like the pinnacle moment of adorning the thaali (gold necklace). He managed the time by reducing the number of phases in a typical wedding event. He is young and has strong voice in case the audio system turned out to be weak. We were delighted to have him conduct the ceremony for our son, and will recommend him without hesitation to any one.
