I visited this temple with a sincere desire to learn and practice meditation, but I left feeling deeply concerned. Although I arrived during posted hours, the office was locked and the grounds were deserted. More troubling, however, is the visible deterioration of the buildings and property. I believe that the physical environment of a meditation center should reflect the care and mindfulness taught within its walls. It is difficult to find a sense of peace or reflection when the space feels neglected. I truly hope the leadership can prioritize the upkeep of these grounds so the temple can become the sanctuary the community deserves.

We visit the temple first time last year 2022 on Song Kran Festival. My mom and my baby like the temple. Finally we moved from NYC to Katy and will definitely visit the temple again.

Disgusting, they market it as a meditation center, I like to go and chill and meditate, it's pretty run down but understandable when I assume they only run on donations. My favorite location is the koi pond. I was thinking about donating some money to help the cause, but glad I did not when they flatly told me they didn't want me there anymore. It's not a mediation center anymore the head lady stated today. I was shocked, been going here for years, participate in the festivals. They know me, I'm not some random stranger. I assume it's because I'm white (antiwhiteism)/jewish (anti-Semitism) that because I'm not some form of asian, I am rejected. The indian temple next door have chased me out, after I wanted to visit through the connecting gate they have there. I wanted to see the temple and understand and appreciate the culture. But they literally tried to lock me in by closing the gate at the front entrance, and chased me like they were going to kindap me. Bizarre! Crazy because I've helped the community several times, you would think I would be accepted. Nope, racism is apparently on the rise! Come at your own risk!

This is one of most disgusting awful places in Texas, they have signs about meditation, doing good, being good, praying… what they do? They just ask for money and keep taking ignorant people’s money, first of all they should have some hygiene since a lot of people visit this place to give them more and more money. With all the money they get, they can’t even have a decent restroom. Everything around there smells like poop, you go there and the smell won’t even let you meditate because it’s like you are praying and meditating in the middle of poop, this place it’s like a mix of poop and trash smell everywhere. Something must be really wrong with anyone who can’t notice the smell, either you are used to live in places like a dump and sewage to not notice the smell. Candles won’t stop the terrible smell. Beware of the danger you are putting your health into.
