The Ottawa Shiv Shakti Hindu Community is a volunteer-driven, community-supported, non-profit organization that promotes and practices the ideals of Hindu religion through worship and education. It is a place where hundreds of people come together for collective prayers each Sunday morning. 

The Temple’s culture is one of inclusiveness and celebrates festivals from all corners of India. The Temple strives for spiritual richness and human excellence through assimilation of the values emphasized in Hindu scriptures and applying them in our daily lives, while recognizing and respecting other religions and belief systems in their due context.
