Satya Sanatan Dharma Cultural Sabha of Canada (Devi Mandir) is committed to teaching Sanatan Dharma through various religious services. The organization aims to propagate Hindu teachings through Puja, Pravachans (discourses), and Bhajans. They focus on ensuring today's youth are well-equipped to carry Hinduism into the future. Devi Mandir describes itself as "More than a place of worship," serving the community through spiritual support and cultural education.
Devi Mandir primarily serves the east side of Toronto, specifically in Pickering, Ontario. The temple is located at 2590 Brock Road, which was purchased in 1989 by eight founding families. It has grown to become the predominant Hindu temple in eastern Toronto. The organization works closely with local partners like the Durham Regional Police Service for cultural awareness training.
Program highlights include daily religious services with the temple open seven days a week. Devi Mandir offers various Samskaras (Hindu rituals performed during different life stages) conducted by their Pundits. Their Kirtans Mandali provides music for religious functions. The organization has received recognition for environmental initiatives, including a 2006 City of Pickering Civic Award. They installed solar panels as part of youth initiatives and participated in the Greening of Sacred Spaces program.
