On May 28th, 2017, disciples celebrated the 75th manifestation day of His Divine Holiness Acharya Swamishree Purushottampriyadasji Maharaj. Leading up this day, disciples all across North America participated in a 7.5 day dhoon. The dhoon was one of the many Sadbhav Amrut Parva celebrations in North America. Other celebrations included 75 minutes of dhyaan, a 75 minute utsav, a 75 hour fast, and the ongoing 750 hour community service initiative.
Disciples gathered on Sunday and performed dhyaan before performing kirtan bhakti in honor of the momentous event. This was followed by youth speeches and a youth dance. Disciples then watched the Sadhbav Amrut Parva celebrations at Maninagar Mandir and watched Acharya Swamishree’s Divine Ashirwad. Other disciples then shared their recollections of Acharya Swamishree and His divine glory before sandhya aarti and niyams. The celebrations concluded with the 75 minute utsav.
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.
