Bhajan session at Hindu Centre — devotees in a semicircle around a lit brass oil lamp, harmonium player mid-recitation, warm tungsten evening light, marigold garlands on the back wall

Worship

Devotion is not performance. It is the quiet turning of the heart toward something larger than itself. At Hindu Centre, we create space for that turning.

Bhajan & Satsang

The room fills slowly. Someone lights the lamp. The harmonium begins, and for two hours, nothing else exists — not the workweek, not the MRT commute, not the argument you had this morning. Just voices, together, reaching for something they can't quite name.

Second Saturday of each month, 7:00pm – 9:00pm. No registration. Just come.
