In the Vikram year 1837, Chaitra Sud 9th, Lord Swaminarayan manifested in Chhapaiya, to dispel evil and superstitious practices, to preach non-violence and universal goodwill, methods of self-realisation and ultimately to purify the lost souls and reveal to them His supreme abode Akshardham.
Young disciples up to age 16 celebrated this imperative event on Saturday 25th March 2023. The day called on their knowledge of the Satsang, aptitude and strength whilst encompassing a boisterous environment honouring the Lord’s pragatya din.
The youth were divided into four teams as many of the games were competitive – incentivising the participants to do their best to secure the winning position. After a prayer to the Lord, the fun and games began, with a cooking session where the participants had hands on experience with making their favourite sweet treats including biscuits and designing cupcakes. The remainder of the day was nevertheless more exciting, comprising of riddles, maths puzzles, anagrams and spot the difference.
His Divine Holiness Acharya Swamishree Maharaj was ever alert to the needs of the less fortunate in the community. Prem Murti Bapa identified the needs of the community and inspired His disciples to provide aid accordingly. In keeping with these teachings, Easter Eggs were collected to be donated to various children’s charities.
Acharya Shree Jitendriyapriyadasji Swamiji Maharaj is the current spiritual leader of Maninagar Shree Swaminarayan Gadi Sansthan. He is the heir to Acharya Shree Purushottampriyadasji Swamishree Maharaj, and sixth in the lineage of ascetic Acharyas, which descends directly from Lord Shree Swaminarayan.
