This temple which resembles a palace is the spiritual abode of Goddess Raja Rajeswary. Raja Rajeswari is the presiding deity of Sri Yantra. Sri Yantra is a configuration of nine interlocking triangles. The five downward pointing triangles represent Shakti, and four upright triangles represent Shiva. Goddess Raja Rajeswari has four hands, three eyes and wields a noose, goad, sugar cane bow and five flowered arrows. The temple was established in 1974, and is the pride and the joy of its departed founder, Mr. K Suppiah. He had taken a considerable amount of his time, effort and creativity to develop this previous empty piece of land into a spiritual architectural delight. The temple is abundant with neem, bael, champa, and jamun trees. Also found are tulasi (holy basil), jasmine shrubs and sugar cane. The entrance of the temple is adorned with a water fountain, whilst the rear end of the temple has a spectacular water cascade. The temple has become a spiritual oasis for Hindu devotees of Klang Valley.
Due to his devotion to Goddess Raja Rajeswary, Mr. K Suppiah has been blessed with several visions of this Goddess. During the Mahakumbhabishegam, the committee members of the temple along with several priests went to the bank of Ampang river to collect soil. This religious ceremony is known as “Punitha Man Eduthal” translated as collecting of sacred soil. As they were departing back to the temple, Mr. K Suppiah noticed that Goddess Raja Rajeswary followed them after partaking in this religious ceremony. He was astounded by this beautiful vision of the sacred Goddess. As the years passed, Mr. K Suppiah’s health deteriorated. A few months before his loss, he had another vision of Goddess Raja Rajeswary. He dreamt of the Goddess walking from the temple inner sanctum towards the entrance of the temple. At the entrance of the temple, the Goddess laughed joyously. She then proclaimed that she was contented with her palatial residence and thanked Mr. K Suppiah for his endeavour. Although Mr. K Suppiah has passed away, he has left an immense spiritual legacy that benefits the entire Hindu community of Malaysia.

Just to share................. There is another Raja Rajeswari Amman temple in Menglembu,Ipoh.
Not as big, But the temple already here more than 30 years!!
Do visit when drop by to Ipoh!!
How exactly do you get to this temple? I can't find Jalan Ulu Kelang on any maps at all. Would you be able to provide detailed directions from Ampang Point?
Thanks
Michael
Thanks for this write up. It made my eyes tear up. K Suppiah is my grandfather. My father is his eldest son, and i am my father's eldest son.
He spent his whole life devoted to the temple. He was very strict with cleanliness and it can be seen in the spotless floor and stairs of the temple. You walk barefooted and look at your soles and it wont even be dust on it.
Mike,
if you can find ampang point, you are already around the corner. follow the MRR2 (that is the new name for jalan ulu klang) head towards the zoo from jalan ampang, and make the 1st U turn. You will see it on the left hand side. Make sure u always keep left or you make over shoot and go up the flyover which is a long way for a u turn back.
I am actually unhappy now with the politics and power struggle that ensued after his demise. He would have hated this things going on if he was around. But still, the temple belongs to HER, Goddess Rajeswari, and not the committee members!

Dear Ramesh,
Thank you for providing the directions. There are many Hindu temples in Malaysia that have problems with their committee. Perhaps it is best to leave it in the hands of the deity to decide the future of the temple.

Raja Rajeswari Temple is very dear to me as my grandfather (Late Mr.R.V. Naidu) was 1 of the founder member of the temple and my father was the architect who designed the first structure of this temple.
Feeling touched to read about the temple as the memories are very dear to my heart.
Best regards,
Premlatha Naidu
