The Temple Am David, which has been in receivership since November 2015, is now under absolute control of Rhode Island Hindu Temple Society Inc., as it is reflected in society\u2019s website.\u00a0The temple is now being developed by the Society phase by phase.
\nTheodore Orson, the temple\u2019s temporary receiver, conveyed earlier that\u00a0the Rhode Island Hindu Temple Society (RIHTS) Inc. signed a purchase-and-sale agreement in June, 2015 for $400,001. Kent County Superior Court approved the agreement in July that year, said Orson, of the Providence law firm Orson and Brusini Ltd.
\n\u201cI was absolutely thrilled that the purchaser was a group that intended to keep the building for the purpose that it was created\u201d and that it would not be razed for commercial use, Orson said.
\nThus the worship place for the Almighty remains for the same holy purposes. Instead of Thorah, the Vedas, Upanishads, Gita, Brahma Sutras, Purans will be more important there, but nobody will disregard Thorah anyway!
\nAs per the note, the org\u00a0confirmed as \u2018RIHTS\u2019 has completed acquiring the property and building located at 40 Gardiner Street in Warwick, RI\u2019 on\u00a010\/03\/2016.
\nThe facts remain that the synagogue had been experiencing financial constraints and had even bought out the contract of Rabbi Richard Perlman about two\u00a0and a half ago. He had been the rabbi and cantor at the temple for 15 years. According to Temple Am David President, Beth Veltri, some people from the congregation chose to follow the rabbi, while other left for other temples. The congregation then became so small that they felt it was in the best interest to file for receivership.
\nActually, the purchased synagogue property at\u00a040 Gardiner Street, Warwick, RI 02888 is now\u00a0functioning as a Hindu temple with its highest sacredness since January (Jan 14) this year\u00a0with its Sri Lakshmi Narayana Swamy Pooja on Makar Sankranti first time there.
