Jai Jinendra / Pranam,
Wishing you all a very healthy and happy 2015. Let us all begin this year by doing something good for ourselves and the society, to which we have obligation.
With grace of Bhagvan Shri Mahavirswami, JTLA is going to perform its first and foremost auspicious event of Bhumi Poojan, Khatmahurat (Khanan) and Shila Sthapan Vidhi. We are very fortunate we are all going to be part of this, which is happening after so many years and we don't know when we are going to witness something like this again. Please do take part with your Tan, Man and Dhan.
We will be performing Snatra Pooja, Patla Poojan, Aarti, Mangal Divo, Shanti Kalash and other rituals. Narendrabhai Shah, a renowned Vidhikar from Amdavad is invited here to conduct all the Vidhies. Narendrabhai has performed Pratishtha at Antwerp, New Jersey, Virginia and many more places here and in India for over 40 years.
