A SPECIAL ceremony was organised at the BAPS Hindu Mandir site in Abu Dhabi, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), on the first day of the holy month of Shravan. The gathering was small considering the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.
The ceremony started with Pujya Ishwarcharandas Swami symbolically sanctifying the first of the hundreds of tons of carved and semi-carved stones that have arrived from India.
Thereafter, Brahmaviharidas Swami thanked the leaderships of both the UAE and India besides the donors, dignitaries, well-wishers and volunteers.
His Holiness Param Pujya Mahant Swami Maharaj blessed the occasion from India.
Those present on the occasion, including consultants and contractors, prayed for the global harmony. Sanctified flowers were showered in all directions for the smooth progress and timely completion of the mandir.
