"...I have some good news. Following
Mahalakshmi Homam which you performed for me in 2004, my life has
experienced very positive developments in the last one year. Homam was done
in Feb 2004 and in Nov-Dec I fell in love with a lady who changed my life
economically. We tied the knot in July, I resigned from work where I was
earning less than 3$ a day, then relocated in Sept and two months later we
were blessed with a beautiful baby girl. When I look back and wonder what is
it that I did to experience so much changes in my life, the answer comes
down to Saranam Homam. Thank you so much for making this service available
to all."

"Thanks
to the miracle of modern technology, Indian temples bring your prayers
to the Goddess and bring the blessings of the Goddess to you when you
order a puja on line through www.saranam.com
, an organization that places puja orders for people from
around the world, and typically cost at around $59 (the prices are in
rupees on their website, so clarify before you buy). You can request to
be part of the worship services at Ashta Lakshmi Temple, in Chennai,
Tamil Nadu; at MahaLakshmi Temple, in Mumbai, Maharashtra; or in one of
150 temples. They Fed Ex you a DVD of the worship service, as well as
the prasad (dried flowers, cum-cum, sandlewood ash, etc)."

"I
‘ve been very pleased with the services from Saranam.com. It’s easy to
make payments online at a secure Web site. The payments go through much
faster than the sites in which I use to pay my bills here in America.
Saranam.Com is an excellent site for pujas and homams. If you decide to
use Saranam.com (monthly puja subscription program) for example,
remember that six months of pujas, plus a few yagyas thrown in, will
improve almost any situation."

religion to online aartis, from personalised puja rooms to a shopping
mall...

India. Offerings are offered on their behalf from amongst 600
franchises, and are then shipped to their doorstep within seven days.

The site’s USP
is its puja service in 387 temples in India and is expected to shortly
touch 600. Devotees have to log onto the site and order for the puja.
The pujas are then executed by over 600 affiliates all over India.

Not only
do important pilgrimage places in India have their own websites, but
sites like Saranam.com allow worshippers to order a puja, or
worship ceremony, at the Indian temple of their choosing for a small
fee...Hindus generally agree that a temple in cyberspace is the next
best thing to actually being at a temple in India.
-Asia Source, January 03,
2001 |
You can buy religious artifacts and order a
Hindu puja (act of devotion) from the site. If you want to find other
temples Saranam.com enables you to order pujas from 250 temples across
the subcontinent.
-AsiaWeek Magazine, December 8, 2000 |
The Hindu diaspora has taken East Indian
people to every corner of the world. Ingrained with the darshan from
visits to childhood temples, these devotees long to experience the sweet
bliss of these sacred places, but don't often get the chance. Now they
can get digital blessings at www.saranam.com. Pujas can be purchased
from temples in every state of India for as little as $9.75.
