How Downs Berune fouls
This is a great and peaceful Jain temple ever outside India. I come from London and tried hard to find one over there as good as this. I'm so happy and thankful to all the people who have put in their efforts to successfully establish and maintain this temple!

Derasar is amazing. It feels like we are somewhere in India at "Shetrunjaya Tirth where you can find all the 24 Tirthankar" at one place. The environment is so peaceful, where you can relax your mind from the outer worlds tension
I feel very lucky to be here on my birthday, do pooja and have a nice lunch. This is an excellent and clean temple. I love all the Gods in this temple. I know all of my wishes will come true and not only mine, but whoever comes to the temple
MIT
We had the unique opportunity to visit the temple. This temple is the product of hard work of the dedicated Jains of the community. The exhibits of art work in the temple hallways and stairs are very educational and easily understandable. This is a great place to teach the principles of Jainism to the young generations
LAIN CENTER
All paintings and posters related to Jainism are very nice and are ap preciable. Ashtapad Tirth here is very unique and we can't find it at any other place. This place is Jain Shikhar in America and is a Koh noor of all lain temples in America that I've ever seen.
