About

Our 353-acre sanctuary on this tropical isle is a theological seminary, publishing center, home of Iraivan Siva temple, and a destination for Hindus who come on pilgrimage from around the world. Established in 1970 by Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami (left, 1927-2001), affectionately known as Gurudeva, Kauai's Hindu Monastery is under the spiritual direction of his successor, Satguru Bodhinatha Veylanswami (right). It is part of the Saiva Siddhanta Church, founded in Sri Lanka in 1949. Its spiritual heritage derives from the Nandinatha Sampradaya, which goes back to 200 bce. The monastery is also home to Hinduism Today magazine, Hindu Heritage Endowment and Himalayan Academy.
