SMVS Swaminarayan Mandir – Newark, CA

A Divine Space for Spiritual Growth, Culture, and Family Connection

 

At our Newark Mandir, we aim to create a peaceful, devotional, and family-friendly atmosphere where everyone can grow spiritually while staying connected to our culture and values.

 

Every Saturday from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM, families gather to experience satsang, spiritual learning, and cultural activities that nurture the heart and soul.

 

We offer a range of engaging programs for all ages:

 

🎵 Tabla Class (Ages 7+) | Saturdays 4:00 – 5:00 PM

Learn the art of rhythm and devotion through tabla. Kids develop focus, coordination, and a love for music while connecting deeply with bhakti.

 

📚 Gujarati Class (Ages 5+) | Saturdays 5:00 – 6:00 PM

Children learn to read, write, and speak Gujarati in a fun and interactive way — preserving their cultural roots, language, and values with joy.

 

🌸 Kids Satsang Sabha (Ages 5+) | Saturdays 6:00 – 7:00 PM

A lively and engaging session where children learn moral and spiritual values through games, stories, and activities — helping them grow in virtues and connect with their divine heritage.

 

🪔 Adult Satsang Sabha | Saturdays 5:00 – 7:00 PM

A serene spiritual gathering for adults to gain peace, wisdom, and happiness through enlightening discourses and devotional bhakti.

 

At the end of every Sabha, we all join together for Aarti — a beautiful moment of light, gratitude, and devotion — followed by delicious Prasad (Dinner) lovingly prepared by our volunteers.

 

We also host special cultural and spiritual events such as kids’ camps, family satsangs, and youth workshops, offering a joyful way to learn and live with values.

 

The atmosphere at our Mandir is warm, divine, and welcoming — a perfect place to find peace, connect with community, and experience true spiritual growth.
