Welcome to BTCC
Thank you for visiting the Bharatitya Temple and Cultural Center’s (BTCC) web site. While you are here, please feel free to browse all areas of the site.
What is BTCC?
BTCC serves the dual purpose as that of a religious center and of a cultural center. We provide a religious and cultural organization, establish a permanent place of worship, promote peace, love, justice, truth, harmony, friendship, and goodwill among people. The purpose of the center is to enrich our children of Indian culture and heritage.
Necessity for a Temple
A temple is a center for realizing God, it inspires a higher way of life, is a palace of paramount peace, teaches us to respect one another, and sustains the higher values of culture. Temples and images remind us to renew our renunciation and dedication from day to day. I know of no religion or sect that has done or is doing without it’s house of GOD. The temple building is a form of God. It is a living organism. To reject the necessity of temples is to reject the necessity of God, religion, and existence.
