We have a great delight in presenting an account of the HTCC activities during the Financial Year 2008-09.

It is said that have 366 festivals for the 365 days of the year. This was certainly felt very acutely during the year. There was never a time when preparations were not being made for some celebration or the other.

This report contains a record of the activities we had during the year. The activities are listed under a few different headings and the three chief divisions being Devotional, Educational, and Cultural activities. It will be seen that a good balance was achieved during the year.

Five aaratis were performed each day, most festivals were celebrated on the day itself, and many other worship ceremonies took place.

Educational activities include weekly classes, Hindi courses, weekly Sanskrit classes, meditation classes, and many special lectures and discourses.

In cultural activities we had the second Ramayan Sammelan in Australia, Navarang, Dandia, & Deepavali Melas, Girmit Day celebrations, food‐fairs, and many other programs.

A few years ago HTCC started celebrating every festival on the day of the festival itself and not shifting it to the nearest weekend. This seems to have gone well with the devotees. At many of the festivals on weekdays there has been a presence of up to two hundred devotees. On the days of almost all religious festivals bhojan‐prasad has been prepared by a few devotees persuaded by Punditji. This humble service has been provided during both the Navratries and the week leading upto Janmashtami. This will continue in future too. Devotees are requested to make use of this service and if they so wish they can provide this service in return to other devotees on the days of their choosing.

Devotees have been generous with their donations. It was remiss on the part of the committee not to have special fund‐raising campaign and yet due to the generosity of the devotees we again crossed the hundred thousand mark. Here is a snapshot of the financial status of the organisation.

Devotees have been generous in financial donation and yet very miserly in one of the most important community activity ‐ volunteer work. In spite of repeated requests for volunteers to help with maintenance, cleaning, and construction work, few devotees showed up. On most occasions Punditji was the most prominent volunteer cleaning, gardening, and doing all manner of tasks!

Everyone is busy and thatʹs perfectly understandable but what is needed is for people to set aside at least one hour a month to do volunteer work at the Temple. Devotees can work on projects or tasks of their own choosing. One doesnʹt have to do manual work as a part of volunteer service, your presence, appreciation and bringing a few cups of tea or coffee or drinks for the volunteers working at the Temple is a gesture which will go a long way in encouraging the volunteers who work with dedication. Please show your generosity by a pat on the back for the working volunteers or joining hands with them in devotional service around Temple.

Monthly food‐fairs have started to attract larger numbers but most of them are not our members. Imagine the encouragement your will provide to the volunteers by your coming to the food‐fair and getting a good, tasty, healthy meal for yourself for five or six dollars. If you are not hungry just come and buy a can of coke or a plate of pakoras. Even a little gesture as this is significant. Please come to the food‐fair and encourage our volunteers. This is such a simple task and yet the returns are very high.

We have a unique opportunity to create a culture of appreciation and encouragement. Unrealised by many, the mere presence of positive thinking, appreciative, and encouraging devotees is enough to drive out the unfortunate culture of denigration and intimidation.

Let us hope our members will be generous ‐ not only with their financial contributions but also with volunteer work for the Temple.

We thank the community for providing us with an opportunity to serve. We seek forgiveness for the mistakes committed during the course of service.

We ask for forgiveness from the devotees whose Condolence names have been inadvertently omitted from this list.
