The auspicious occasion of Shri Mahavir Jayanti this year brought incessant showers of grace. We first celebrated the Lord’s birth by revering Him through a snatra puja and were then blessed to take part in the ground-breaking ceremony of the upcoming temple by the Bochasanwasi Shri Akshar Purushottam Swaminarayan Sanstha (BAPS) Sydney centre. The brick, with the word ‘Raj’ written on it, formed a part of the foundation. We conveyed Pujya Gurudevshri’s blessings for the project and the trustees of BAPS expressed gratitude to this expression of His ever-flowing love.
