Sunday 16th September 2019 marked 39 years since our beloved Gurudev Jeevanpran Swamibapa departed this mortal world. In Maninagardham, Sants and disciples commemorated the day in the divine presence of Acharya Swamishree Maharaj. Before the mangla aarti of the Lord, Sants and disciples performed dhoon and pradikshana in the Brahm Mahol. After the shanghar aarti, everyone sat in meditation and listened to Swamibapa’s divine blessings. Acharya Swamishree Maharaj and Sants then went for darshan to Shree Muktajeevan Swamibapa Smruti Mandir.
In March 2019, we celebrate 75 years since Gurudev Swamibapa installed the divine Murti of Shree Ghanshyam Maharaj in Maninagar Mandir. In preparation of the grand festival held to celebrate this anniversary, Acharya Swamishree Maharaj was presented with a tray of scrolls, each containing a different religious theme. Acharya Swamishree Maharaj picked a scroll and the region that the scroll would be sent to. The disciples living in the various regions will now prepare a religious sketch lasting 10 minutes based on the theme written on their scroll. This drama will be scripted, prepared and recorded by the disciples of the region and then performed on stage during the Amrut Mahotsav next year.
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.
