A Devotional Dream: Sagar Patel Leads Effort To Build Umiya Mataji Home In Canada
Following a successful Navratri celebration, Sagar Patel is spearheading the construction of a Umiya Mataji Temple in Canada
After creating the biggest Navratri celebration Canada has ever witnessed, Sagar Patel is far from slowing down. In fact, he is stepping into an even larger, more emotional mission—one that goes beyond entertainment, beyond festivity, and straight into the spiritual heart of the Gujarati community. His next chapter is the construction of a magnificent Umiya Mataji Temple in Canada, a place that promises to become a beacon of faith, culture, and togetherness for generations to come.
For thousands of people who attended the grand Garba event, it wasn’t just a night of dance and music. It was a moment of belonging—an experience that transported them back to Gujarat, to their traditions, to their roots. The event reminded everyone that culture doesn’t fade with distance; it simply finds new places to shine. And Sagar Patel understands this deeper than most. Where Garba can bring people together for a night, a temple has the power to bring them together for a lifetime.
This is why the vision of the Umiya Mataji Temple is so profound. It’s not just about constructing a structure; it’s about creating a permanent home for devotion. A place where families can come together, where children can learn about their heritage, and where elders can feel the same sense of peace they once felt back home. For the community, this temple symbolizes identity. For Sagar Patel, it symbolizes responsibility.
As plans move forward, the response from people has been overwhelming. Devotees from across Canada are stepping up—contributing their time, resources, skills, and heartfelt blessings. According to Mr. Patel, the project isn’t about “walls and pillars.” It’s about building an emotional foundation, a cultural legacy that will stand tall long after the current generation is gone. Every donation, every volunteer, every prayer is shaping this sacred dream into reality.

Just as Sagar Patel brought more than 50,000 people together to dance as one at the Garba, he is now uniting them once again—but this time with an even greater purpose. The temple is set to become a spiritual home that will anchor the community, offering a space for festivals, rituals, and celebrations of life. It will keep traditions alive and ensure that Gujarati culture continues to flourish in a land far from home.
This project stands as a testament to what unity can achieve. The energy, pride, and collective spirit that lit up the Garba grounds are now being poured into creating something timeless. The Umiya Mataji Temple is not just a dream—it is a movement. And through it, Sagar Patel is proving that when a community comes together with love and faith, even the biggest dreams don’t just come true—they become history.
