Om Shri Narayanāya Namah
His holiness Baba Shri Buddhanath Das, under the instruction of his Guru, initiated and got constructed the Jagannath temple at Garoi in the year 1993. The temple is more than 100 ft in height and is circled inside a reasonably sized temple-campus. The worshipped deities are Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra and Goddess Subhadra. The place Garoi is considered by the devotees as second "Shri-khsetra" and the "fifth dhaama". River Gobari has been declared as Gupta Ganga.
Along with temple of Lord Jagannath, also exists a temple of Lord Mahadev (Lord Shiva). The worshipped form is a Narmadeswar Shivling.
Worship of "Shiva and Shakti" forms an important part of the hindu tradition. Also present is a a temple of Tri-Shakti. Tri-Shakti means "the three powers" and combinedly refers to three Goddesses: Maha Kali, Maha Laxmi, and Maha Saraswati. Combinedly, the form is also sometimes referred to as Dakhsina Kali. Lord Shiva without Mother Shakti is Shava (corpse), hence, Lord Shiva is mostly accompanied with the Mother.

The Lord-Jagannath culture is probably the only culture and tradition, where Brothers and Sister are together and are worshipped together. They are Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra (elder brother), and Maa Subhdra (the youngest of the three and their sister). However, worship of Maa Mahalaxmi (the consort of Lord Jagannath or Lord Vishnu) holds an important part. In the temple premises, there is also a temple of Maa Mahalaxmi (image shown below).
Garoi is rightly termed as the second "Shri-Khsetra" as it is constructed as a transit house of Lord Jagannāth. All the houses and debris have got a limited life, The Jagannāth temples (the temple at the first or primary "Shri-Khsetra") life will be exhausted, and again after limited time will be re-constructed. Garoi will serve as the transit-house in this period of transition. The transition also includes transition of Kali Yuga to Satya Yuga. The temple has been built for the Satya Yuga. Satya, which is stepping in slowly, will have its foot established with full-might on about 22nd June 2017. There is no overnight change anticipated in this extremely difficult Yuga Karma (duty and work of the era). Mahapurusha Shri Shri Achyutananda Goswami has hinted in his Bhabisya Malikā (an oracle about the events of the future), that this Yuga Karma game will be played in secrecy (Shunya Khela or The Game of Shunya) with a Sandhi Kāla (i.e. with a transition period) of about 12 years. Many will remain ignorant of the game, some will have some hints but cannot dig and understand further, some devotees will be able to witness the happenings with a conscious, and will secretly wait for the re-establishment of the truth.
