Kali Temple

American Babaji Yoga Sangam Kriya Babaji Grahamsville Brahmanoor Kali Temple flourishes in the Catskill mountains of New York.

This temple has its roots in the distant past. The great Master Kriya Babaji, more than 1200 years ago, instructed his disciple Adi Sankara to seek the Grace of Divine Mother Mukkambikai for his mission in restoring Sanatana Dharma to India. In the Twentieth century Babaji instructed His direct disciple Yogi S.A.A. Ramaiah to win the Grace of the Divine Mother for the important mission of founding International Babaji Yoga Sangam. Yogi Ramaiah’s intense Spiritual practices at the Brahmanoor Kali Temple in South India led to the establishment of the Sangam. Later, in 1991, Babaji instructed Yogi Ramaiah to win the Grace of Mother Kali for the construction of this western counterpart of the famous Brahmanoor Kali Temple. 

The Temple’s central peatam is blessed with a murthi of dancing Maa Kali, along with Babaji Thandava, and a rare three-dimensional Sri Chakra Yantra which is invested with the sadhana shakti of extensive tapas. Outside are murthis of Ganapathi, NagaLingam Siva, Thulasi Devi and Siddhar Karuvurar who, along with Nandiswarar, is presiding over the spiritual awakening of North America.
