On October 10th at 10am we will celebrate Dussehra, it will be a quick meet at the HTS parking lot, we will be giving each Balvihar student a boxed lunch.
You may remember that before Modi Toys became famous, we had them sell one of their first batches of Baby Ganesha at Hindu Temple Society at a discounted rate for Balvihar. This Dussehra, we are getting Durga ma books. They are perfect for our R1 kids but would also be a perfect gift for younger siblings, cousins or friends.The proceeds of this fundraiser will go towards HTS Balvihar. We have limited books, so if you are interested, reach out to us now to book your book.
In our Balvihar tradition, we will be selling greeting cards made by Ajai Ananthan who recently graduated from Parkland High School! This friend of ours is a special needs champion who expresses himself with arts. These are a great purchase for Diwali time, so get as many as you can. You will be supporting our local Indian American Special needs student. If you are interested in learning more about how to help Ajai, spend time with him, play video games, sports, learn art or teach something that interests you, Ajai is looking for friends! Let us know.

Namaste,

The name Yugadi is derived from the Sanskrit words Yuga which means era and Adi which means beginning. Yugadi falls on Chaitra Shuddha Paadyami which means the first day of the bright half of Chaitra month.

Monday, April 12 / 13 is Yugadi, Navreh, Gudi Padva, Cheti Chand, Sajibu Nongma Panba and we wish all our Balvihar Families a Nutan Shubh Varsha! Since we follow the Lunar Calendar to mark our festivals, the auspicious hour or date to celebrate is determined by what time Pooja can be done.

Please join us at 9:30 am for Mantra and Aarti followed by links provided by your teachers for Language and Religion classes. We will meet at this link again at noon for Satsangh!

Satsangh :
To celebrate the New Year Festival on Monday, we will discuss the traditions of what is also termed by many as the Hindu New Year. We encourage students to share what you do for New beginnings. We will learn about the lesser known traditions of Sindhi, Kashmiri and Manipuri regions so that we are further united in our understanding within diversity of Sanatan Dharma.
