Donation Guidance
Introduction
Donations at Pashupatinath should move through official channels. The goal is clarity, accountability, and respect for the temple's own systems.
Use this page to understand where to donate, how to avoid unofficial intermediaries, and what to confirm before making a larger contribution.
How to donate responsibly
- Avoid handing money to unofficial intermediaries outside the formal support points.
- Keep cash organized before you reach the counter so you do not slow a busy queue.
- If you are unsure which channel applies, ask the nearest staffed desk first.
