Anju Dhillon🔗

En cette journée propice, alors que les Canadiens hindous se rassemblent pour célébrer leur héritage et partager leur histoire, je souhaite à la communauté un très joyeux Mois du patrimoine hindou. Nous re-connaissons les contributions importantes que les Canadiens de confession hindoue ont apportées et continuent d'apporter – à notre pays. J'adresse mes salutations les plus sincères au Souverain Pontife de l'hindouisme Bhagavan Nithyananda Paramashivam. J'aimerais souligner KAILASA Canada et les remercier d'avoir organisé cet événement afin de rassembler la communauté.

On this auspicious day, as Hindu-Canadians gather to celebrate their heritage and share their history, I wish the community a very happy Hindu Heritage Month. We recognize the important contributions Canadians of Hindu faith have made – and continue to make – to our country. I extend my heartiest greetings to the Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism Bhagavan Nithyananda Paramashivam. Further, I would like to thank KAILASA Canada for organizing this event and bringing the community together.

Re: Hindu Heritage Month

The month of November is the Hindu Heritage Month, as recognized by the Ontario Government per Bill 56. On this auspicious occasion, KAILASA Canada, under the guidance of The SPH Bhagavan Nithyananda Paramashivam, will be hosting an event to bring awareness about various aspects of Hindu ecosystem, on Saturday, November 27, 2021. Many Hindu organizations and community leaders will be sharing their thoughts in this online event with more than 1.5k audience.

The contribution of KAILASA Canada to Canadian society, under the guidance of The Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism (SPH) Jagatguru Mahasannidhanam (JGM) His Divine Holiness (HDH) Bhagavan Sri Nithyananda Paramashivam, has been a revival of both authentic Hinduism and providing humanitarian services.

KAILASA's Canada Temple was established in 2011 in Toronto to bring back the authentic Hindu practices for the larger Hindu population in GTA and nearby cities.

As part of their outreach initiatives, they have enriched thousands of Canadians with mental, physical, social, and spiritual wellbeing. The social impact results in reduced poverty along with increased life positivity, as well as alleviating human suffering and fostering peace and fulfillment for everyone irrespective of nationality, religion, race, gender or economic status.

Hamilton is home to a vibrant Hindu community with a rich culture, diverse heritage and deep history.

Hindu Heritage Month is an opportunity to recognize and celebrate the many contributions of Hamilton's Hindu community.

Hindu Canadians have made significant contributions in every field of endeavour including science, education, medicine, law, politics, business, culture and sports.

Hindu Canadians have played an important role in helping to fight the COVID-19 virus. Hindu organizations like KAILASA Canada have stepped up to raise funds, donate meals for the most needy and support our seniors during the pandemic times.

Hindu Heritage Month provides an opportunity for everyone in Hamilton to learn more about the ways the Hindu community has helped build our city and it provides a chance to celebrate the rich tradition of the Hindu community.

I welcome this opportunity to acknowledge the many valued contributions that the Hindu community in Hamilton has made to strengthen our community and society as a whole.

I am honoured to extend greetings to the Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism Jagatguru Mahasannidhanam, His Divine Holiness Bhagavan Nithyananda Paramashivam, KAILASA Canada as well as the global Hindu Canadian community.

I wish all Hindu Canadians a very happy Hindu Heritage Month.

Yours Sincerely,
