Unique
Characteristics of The Temple
Remarkable discipline, regularity, peace and cleanliness are the
unique characteristics of the Swaminarayan Temple, Sector 23, Gandhinagar
(India). Shastri Harikeshavdasji trained the kids, youngsters and
even elders preaching above qualities. Officers, dignitaries and
all others are habituated to regularity and discipline of the temple.
Any celebration and function of the Temple has never been delayed
even for a minute so far. Even on an occasion of great celebration
and sabha no hustle bustle is there.
Since the Temple started, it has created a very good image among
the people. The people realize that no fund is collected by force
nor even money is demanded. While taking benefit of ‘Katha’
(Discourses) and Satsang Sabha and Temple’s routine activities
all devotees are sincerely satisfied with Shastri Harikeshavdasji.
They believe that Shastriji is one the most capable saints for city’s
needs of ‘Satsang’ and ‘Sanskar’ (Virtues).
In such a peaceful, selfless, spiritual, disciplined atmosphere
of the temple followers get divine peace. |
