Namghar

A Namghar is a community prayer hall primarily found in Assam, India, serving as a cultural and spiritual center for followers of Ekasarana Dharma (a form of Hinduism). It functions as a place for daily prayer, devotional singing (bhajans), and community gatherings. Unlike traditional temples, Namghars emphasize devotion through singing and recitation rather than elaborate rituals or idol worship. They foster spiritual unity, cultural preservation, and social cohesion, making them integral to Assamese religious life and community identity.
