Wednesday, October 6th, was Jeevanpran Shree Muktajeevan Swamibapa's 114th manifestation day. Secaucus Temple celebrated Shree Muktajeevan Swamibapa Jayanti on October 9th, 2021.
Shree Muktjeevan Swamibapa Pipe Band led a Swagat Yatra in which Gurudev Swamibapa was escorted into the Mandir along with a procession of disciples and offerings. Disciples were able to perform aarti and poojan to Muktajeevan Swamibapa inside the Mandir. After Gurudev Swamibapa arrived into the Mandir, the sponsors for the day adorned Him with a beautiful flower chaadar and moogat, before offering aarti and poojan to Him. Cakes were then cut and offered to Lord Shree Swaminarayanbapa Swamibapa.
During this important celebration, disciples sang kirtans and remembered the wise teachings of Muktajeevan Swamibapa. After the ceremony concluded with aarti, disciples were offered prasad.
