Months before the Hindola festivities approach, devotees come together and brainstorm their ideas for the themes of the upcoming Hindola Utsav. They brainstorm on the designs, cutouts, structures, materials and many other items that are required for these festivities.
This year at Maninagar Shree Swaminarayan Gadi Sansthan, Shree Swaminarayan Siddhant Sajivan Mandal – Nairobi assembled a total of 5 beautiful Hindolas. Hindola Utsav commenced on the 18th of July 2019. Supreme Lord Swaminarayan, Jeevanpran Bapashree, Shree Muktajeevan Swamibapa and Shree Harikrushna Maharaj were seated upon a swing and blessed disciples throughout for a month.
The Hindolas consisted of Pasta, Aquarium, Jhoola, Shree Swaminarayan Bhagwan Shreemukhvanu Vachnamrut Dvishatabdi Mahotsav & Shreeji Swayam Murti Shree Abji Bapashree Shatamrut Mahotsav, Rakhees and Stationery.
