Dear Friends,
On behalf of the Hindu Cultural Center of Connecticut (HCC), thank you for being a part of our ninth
Heritage India Festival. This state has been so welcoming to my family and many others who are part of
the HCC community, which makes us all very excited to host the Heritage India Festival. As in years past,
we are particularly grateful to the Town of Fairfield for allowing us to hold this major event on the Town
Hall Green. The Green affords us an open and sprawling venue to share our culture and traditions with
the broader Connecticut community, and we are so happy to return to this location for another year.
The festival is designed to share the diversity of India with you. Through food, music, dance, and, most
importantly, conversations with people today, we hope you will learn more about India as well as the
Indians who, like me and you, have chosen to call Connecticut home.
Year after year, the Heritage India Festival also serves as a major fundraising event for the HCC. Your support
is critical to both the existence and growth of this organization. By providing cultural and religious services
for children and adults, we serve as an anchor for Indians throughout southern Connecticut. HCC’s leadership
spent our early years establishing roots in the community. We are now focused on deepening these roots, and
this means having the physical capacity to support the needs of Indians in the area.
To that end, we will soon be submitting our conceptual plans for a mandir (a Hindu temple) to the Town
of Stratford. As with so much of the HCC’s success, this growth is only possible if the community takes
ownership of the project. We hope people across the state, and especially those in Southern Connecticut,
will support the organization. You can do so by becoming a member or making a contribution to help us
meet the goal of building this new temple and, in turn, helping our organization continue to grow.
Finally, I would like to thank the Heritage India Festival Committee. This event would not be possible
without their hard work and also the support of donors, sponsors and vendors.
Thanks for sharing this day with us. Enjoy the festival!
Sincerely,
Balkrishna Sharma
Chair, Board of Directors

RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES
In addition to daily rituals done at the temple and certain days dedicated weekly to Lord Shiva
and Hanumanji we have added the following:
The HCC Community Center is comprehended as a place where anybody regardless of their
age, race or even thoughts can find comfort in various facets of their culture, preserve and
practice unique traditions. They celebrate festivals, share social thoughts, and spend time in
an organized and welcoming environment.
In addition, HCC also decided to retain and deliver the same dedication, social and cultural
responsibility, bonding and unity to all level of generation. So uniting the diverse community
also becomes one of the HCC’s goals.
At the same time HCC also actively offers and runs a large number of programs for the
community, including classical dance, Bollywood Dance, Yoga, Fitness, sports, Language
classes, Karaoke, Music, Kids’ Summer Camps, and much, much more than the expectations.

Gentle Yoga & Pranayama Classes
Hindi Pathsala
The Hindi Pathshala was established four years ago when HCC was established.
It started with four Levels but due to parents request now it has gone to six
Levels. We have our own text books. We also have qualified teachers. The
classes start from PreK Level, Level 1A and 1B, depends upon the age, Level
2 to Level 6. This year we started our classes in August 30. These classes start
in Sunday's at 2:15 pm with Prarthana at the temple. We hold one solid hour of
class. After classes we do Aarti at the temple.
Our Mission
Our mission is to have a student learn to read, write and speak basic Hindi.
Students are encouraged to join HCC's other cultural programs, i.e. Rang
Tarang, Holi, Janamashtami and many more cultural programs.
Part of the Pathshala's requirement, students will participate in our Annual
Kavita Pratiyogita. Each student will be texting poem in front of the Judges
who will score them and award trophies to the winners.
We offer mud-term and final exams. Students from Level 1A to Level 6 must
pass the final exams to be promoted to next Level. At the end of the year we
have Hindi Pathshala picnic where we hand out the certificates, play games
and enjoy varieties of food
For more information please contact HCC on the website or call Balkrishna
Sharma at 293-258-2982.
Bring a yoga mat and wear comfortable, loose fitting clothes.
Please join us on Saturdays and Sundays from 9:30 to 10:45 am for gentle yoga
asana (poses) and pranayama (breathing techniques) classes. These are ongoing,
mixed, beginner and level 1 classes where we work with breath, alignment,
flexibility, and strength in a way that is nurturing for all. Modifications and props
are available to help the each individual stay safe and comfortable. Our goal is
for the student is to find peace, calm, and serenity while gently restoring and
healing the body, mind, and spirit.
Taking time to still the mind and focus inwardly as one comes to the
mat enhances the practice, and so we begin with a short meditation
and several pranayama breathing exercises. The breath is integral
throughout the entire session. We gently start to warm up the joints and
muscles
of the body. After moving through a series of classical yoga asanas and cooling down with some
easy stretches, we take a deep relaxation (savasana). These practices help to reduce stress, calm the
mind, and promote wellness. You will leave the class feeling renewed and relaxed.
Here is a partial list of yoga’s benefits on participants:
• reduces stress
• promotes sound sleep
• reduces cortisol levels
• improves many medical conditions
• relieves allergy and asthma symptoms
• lowers blood pressure
• lowers heart rate
• creates a sense of well-being
• reduces anxiety and muscle tension
• increases strength and flexibility
• slows aging process

Hindu Cultural Center Youth Council
HCC Youth Council is a nonprofit organization
run by actively involved students, in the
endeavor to volunteer and fundraise for the
benefit of our community. Our efforts will be
widespread across many disciplines (food/
drinks sales at events, clean-ups, charity
walkathons, etc.). This past year, under the
guidance of our advisors, Mrs. Anu Wadhwa
and Mrs. Indu Aggarwal, the Youth Council
has successfully completed multiple food and drinks sales, an HCC garden clean up and landscaping
job, and our magnum opus, the Nepal Earthquake Walkathon. From these various efforts, we
have raised almost $2,000 for charitable causes. 2015 was our first year as a council, and now
we are focusing on keeping the youth involved by hosting and executing activities the entire
community can participate. Some of these include stationary and clothing drives, social gatherings,
and performance shows. We certainly hope we will amass a greater number of members this year,
as our growth is indicative of our support. In order to be a part of the youth group, you must:

National Anthem of India
“Jana Gana Mana Adhinayaka Jaya He
Bharat Bhagya Vidhata
Punjab Sindh Gujarat Maratha
Dravida Utkala Banga
Vindhya Himachal Yamuna Ganga
Ucchala Jaladhi Taranga
Tubh Shubha Name Jage
Tubh Shubha Ashisha Mange
Gahe Tubh Jaya Gata Jan Gan Mangaldayak Jay He
Bharat Bhagya Vidhata
Jaye He! Jaye He! Jaye He!
Jaye, Jaye, Jaye, Jaye He”
Translation of The National Anthem – Jana Gana Mana
Thou are the ruler of the minds of all people, dispenser
of India’s destiny.
The name rouses the hearts of Punjab, Sind, Gujurat and
Maratha. Of the Dravid and Orissa and Bengal.
It echoes in the hills of Vindhyas and Himalayas, mingles
in the music of Yamuna and Ganga and is chanted by the
waves of the Indian Sea.
They pray for your blessing and sing thy praise. The
salvation of all people is thy hand, thou dispenser of
India’s destiny. Victory, Victory, Victory to thee.
The Jana Gana Mana was composed by Shri Rabindranath Tagore and first sung at
the Calcutta session of the Indian National Congress on December 27th, 1911. It was
adopted as the National Anthem of India on 24th January, 1950 by the Constituent
Assembly. The first stanza (out of five stanzas) of the song forms the National Anthem.
