Adult and Youth Volunteers
In Hinduism, seva is the concept of service to God and humanity without expecting a return. According to Hindu scriptures, seva is the highest form of dharma (righteousness). Seva has been said to provide good karma, facilitating the atma (soul) to obtain moksha (emancipation from the cycle of death and rebirth). HATCC and Temple are fortunate to have volunteers helping the Temple in various Temple, cultural and religious activities throughout the year. These good souls come forward with total devotion to assisting devotees in having a good experience on their visit to the Temple. In addition, the Temple organized cultural and religious events. Many committees were formed to achieve Temple's objectives and activities and help devotees.
