Selfless Service by Swindon Hindu Temple

Selfless service (or Sewa) has always been the essence and at the heart of Hinduism. As Sri Ramakrishna said “When the goal of spiritual life is reached, there remains only compassion in the heart”. Swindon Hindu Temple & Cultural Centre feels privileged to have the opportunity to undertake several charitable initiatives to help those who need it the most. Here is a brief snapshot:
