Welcome to the Shiv Mandir, Temple of Joy, a magnificent Hindu Temple centrally located in the city of Warren, near Troy, Sterling Heights, and Madison Heights in Michigan, USA. This temple is a common place of worship and cultural activities. We promote a peaceful, harmonious life and the well-being of the community. The Shiv Mandir was founded by the neurologist and philosopher Dr. Debasish Mridha and his wife, Mrs. Chinu Mridha. Inaugurated on the 27th of September, 2021, this temple is organized exclusively for charitable, religious, cultural, and philosophical development, as well as educational purposes.

At Shiv Mandir, we embrace the rich tapestry of Hinduism, offering a wide array of religious rituals that cater to the diverse spiritual needs of our community. Whether it's daily prayers, pujas, or special ceremonies, our dedicated priests lead these sacred rituals with deep reverence and devotion, providing a space for devotees to connect with the divine.
