Kauai's Hindu Monastery

Kauai's Hindu Monastery, founded in 1970 by Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami (left, 1927-2001), is under the spiritual direction of his successor, Satguru Bodhinatha Veylanswami (right). It is part of the Saiva Siddhanta Church, founded in Sri Lanka in 1949. Its spiritual heritage derives from the Nandinatha Sampradaya, which goes back to 2,200 bce.

This website, provided by the monks of the Saiva Siddhanta Yoga Order, is a window into the monastery's many facets, including our guru lineage, temples, spiritual teachings, publications and study programs. Our 353-acre sanctuary on this tropical isle is a theological seminary, publishing center, home of Iraivan Siva temple, and a destination for Hindus who come on pilgrimage from around the world.
