A Religious Experience Like No Other
In addition to providing a virtual darshan experience, Temple 360 also plans to offer a range of online services, including:
E-Prasad: Devotees can receive prasad (offered food) from the temples they virtually visit. This is a traditional practice where food is offered to the deity and then distributed to the devotees as a symbol of divine blessings.
E-Arti: Arti is the ritual of offering light to the deity as a form of worship. With E-Arti, people can participate in this ritual virtually, further enhancing their spiritual experience.

E-Donation: This feature allows individuals to make donations to the temple through the website, supporting the maintenance and activities of the temple.
The aim of these services is to make the temple experience more inclusive and accessible to a wider audience, including those who may not have the opportunity to visit the temples physically.
