JSGD Library News
Jai Jinendra & Pranam,
JSGD Library is open on Study Class Sundays from 11:00 AM-12:30 PM. Members can check out books during these hours. The books can be dropped off anytime. The drop box to return the books is placed outside the library.
Lot of unwanted material is being left in the library. Humble request to everyone is not to leave any books, magazines, idols, etc. in the temple. Library shelves are pretty much at capacity and can’t accommodate more material and we end up discarding those items. Just like you do not leave your unwanted items on anyone else’s property; please don’t leave them in the temple. One may gain more karma by leaving unwanted material from home at the temple.
Jai Jinendra
