On Monday 2nd December 2013, Shree Swaminarayan Siddhant Sajivan Mandal Nairobi celebrated Sadguru Din. Sandhya aarti and niyams took place at 5.30 pm followed by kirtan bhakti at 6.00pm, Dhyaan at 6.30pm and Divine ashirwaad of Param Pujya Acharya Swamishree at 7.30pm. In His discourses, Acharya Swamishree said that gurudev Swamibapa has taught us the essence of sadguru din is the day where you take an account of how much you're affectionate towards the Lord, understand His glory, how much you believe the Lord is omniscient. One attains the fruit of what he imagines, you receive the fruit as per your imaginations. The lord is very beneficent, you have to be afflicted towards Him, He has come to give you thy Murti.
Thereafter, Sants and devotees played raas to please Lord Swaminarayanbapa Swamibapa and later prasad of m asala buns and gajjar halwo was distributed to the congregation.
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.
