Prayer

We, Shivalayam Canada, value all religions. We aim to host people of all cultures and ethnicities to come in the morning and evening for prayer. We intend to follow the prayers according to Hinduism. During the time of prayer, we will say mantras, offer flowers, fruit, water, and incense to the God or deity. As we pray (during puja), an image or statue of the God is used as a way of communication to the God to pray.

Food

After we finish our prayer, we will offer meals to those who attend the temple for prayer. This food is offered to the gods, and given to the people as a blessing.

Meditation

After prayer, the priests, a part of Shivalayam Canada, will host a meditation circle for the people to utilize. We intend to give the people who utilize these resources to practice peace and mindfulness.

Yoga

After prayer, yoga instructors, a part of Shivalayam Canada, will provide yoga sessions for the people to utilize. We intend to give the people who utilize these resources to practice physical activity, promote a healthy lifestyle and promote positive mental health and mindfulness.

Spiritual Counseling

Outside the hours of prayer, the priests, a part of Shivalayam Canada, will provide group or individual spiritual sessions for the people to utilize. We intend to give the people who utilize these resources to allow the people a place of confinement in a group or individually to receive advice and counsel on their spirituality and lifestyle.
