PUTTIGE MUTT or PUTTIGE MATA IN NJ, USA

venkymr — Sat, 15 Aug 2009 17:14:00 +0000

I have been to puttige mutt while I was living in Phoenix, USA. I love the detailed pooja during all the time and the familiar language speaking people around in this place.

Later I moved to Philadelphia and did not had a chance to visit puttige mutt in edison, NJ in the year 2008. I recently visited the puttige mutt during “Raghavendra Swamy Aradhana Mahotsav” and really suprised by the number of people gathered on that day. The function was wonderfully organized(Closer to 1000 people were there) and also visited the mutt for “Shri Krishna Janmastmi” festival. I loved the location of the mutt (It is being closer to OAK TREE ROAD. It is just 6.5 Miles from this MUTT) and also the spacious facility.It gives me an immense peace and pleasure when I visit this mutt with all the hectic life in Philadelphia.

I get to hear people speaking the kannada language and loved to hear the “matrodhghoshane” atleast during the festive season. I am planning to visit this mutt regularly and if you are in search of the address of the mutt, please visit this web site www.krishnavrunda. org and you will get all the details.

Adddress of puttige mutt in NJ is below
