On Monday 30th August 2021, Shree Swaminarayan Mandir Bolton celebrated Janmashtami.
Janmashtami is significant in the Swaminarayan Faith as it marks the manifestation day of Sadguru Shree Ramamand Swami – the Lord’s own Guru.
Following Sandhya Aarti & Katha, disciples took part in the Ucchav Celebrations where beautiful Kirtans and Niyams were sang. Thereafter, Thaar was offered to Lord Swaminarayan marking the end of the Janmashtami celebrations.
Hundreds of visitors streamed through the Mandir doors wishing for the Lord’s darshan on this auspicious occasion.
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.
