A San Francisco letter to the Portland Oregonian describes Golden City hosting a new Hindu temple supervised by Vedante priests led by Prakashananda. The three story structure blends Indian temple style with American design, featuring a Brahmancharing hall, Moorish columns, and an American eagle on the roof. An assembly hall seats 400 and seven American women have taken Vedante vows in a secluded nunnery. The temple serves largely wealthy Americans and swamis lead annual pilgrimages to San Antone valley near Mount Hamilton. The faith was established in the United States about 16 years ago, with San Francisco as the origin.
