About the Dham

A place for devotion and humanity

Shiv Shakti Kashi Dham was established in 2019 by Mahant Shivbalak Upadhyay Ji with the blessings of Maa Durga. His vision was for a spiritual place that also supports families and neighbours in need.

Guided by devotion to Maa Durga and Lord Shiva, the trust brings prayer, Indian traditions and practical service together. We believe every person deserves dignity, opportunity and compassion.

“Service to humanity is service to the Divine.”
