Aum. <br><br>BH\u0100SHYA<br>Because of its holiness, a \u015aiva temple is most often and properly established by God \u015aiva through His devotees and not founded by men. Once the site is known, hereditary temple architects, known as sthapatis, are commissioned to design and construct the temple. By tradition, every stone is set in place according to the sacred architecture found in the \u0100gamic scriptures. When properly consecrated, the temple becomes a place upon the Earth in which the three worlds can communicate for the upliftment of mankind and the fulfillment of \u015aiva\u2019s dharmic law. \u015aiva has deliberately established many temples to communicate His love to His children throughout the world, who live in every country of the world and long for their Lord\u2019s ever-present love. They build temples in His name and install His image, chant His praises and thus invoke His presence. Lord \u015aiva accepts all these temples as His own and sends a divine ray to vivify and vitalize them. \u015aiva\u2019s Vedas annunciate, \u201cBrahman is the priest, Brahman the sacrifice; by Brahman the posts are erected. From Brahman the officiating priest was born; in Brahman is concealed the oblation.\u201d Aum Nama\u1e25 \u015aiv\u0101ya.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Are Temples Founded and Built? \u015aLOKA 102\u015aiva temples are founded by God Himself, often designated in a vision or dream of a devout \u015aaivite, then erected by temple craftsmen usually following \u0100gamic law.
