We are very pleased to provide more information about spiritual retreat which was first announced a few weeks back.
The purpose of this retreat is to have a better and comprehensive understanding of Indian / Hindu religion, philosophy, and spirituality, which has guided millions of people with a very broad outlook over thousands of years to obtain fulfillment towards individual excellence, peace, and prosperity as well as international harmony and universal well being. Revered swamijies of the Vedanta Societies of Portland, Providence, and Los Angeles who are well versed in these subjects have kindly consented to be our speakers. Various topics relevant to all ages and other activities including inauguration of the temple library will be pearled together to make the program an enlightening experience.
Your active participation and support will be of paramount importance to bring forth success to this noble occasion. Please email hccna2@gmail.com to get more information. We look forward to extending a warm welcome to your gracious presence.
