Transformation at Achhavani Pragateshwar Dham: New Hall Foundation Laid with Holy Bricks; Parbhudada Donates ₹10 Lakh

Breaking News: A significant spiritual and social milestone has been achieved at the holy site of Achhavani’s Pragateshwar Dham in South Gujarat.

On the auspicious occasion of Makar Sankranti, a grand Bhumipujan (foundation stone laying ceremony) was performed for the construction of a spacious and modern new hall.

This project is not merely a construction endeavor but a beacon of hope for thousands. The new facility is designed to accelerate the ceaseless service activities (Seva) carried out at the Dham, serving as a central hub for religious gatherings and humanitarian aid.

Vedic Rituals Mark the Auspicious Beginning

As the Sun God entered Uttarayana on Makar Sankranti, the foundation for the new building was laid amidst a divine atmosphere.

The ceremony took place in the holy presence of Dharmacharya Parbhudada and Ramaba. The Bhumipujan was conducted with strict adherence to Shastric traditions and Vedic chanting by Bhudevs Kashyapbhai Jani and Anilbhai Joshi.

During the ritual, the ‘Panchatatva’ (five elements) were worshipped, seeking permission and blessings from Mother Earth to ensure the construction proceeds without obstacles.

Generous Donation: ₹10 Lakh for Ancestral Welfare

The most inspiring moment of the event was a magnanimous gesture by Dharmacharya Parbhudada. He presented a cheque of ₹10 Lakhs towards the construction of the new hall at Pragateshwar Dham.

Parbhudada dedicated this donation to the spiritual welfare and peace of his ancestors (Pitru Kalyan). Addressing the gathering, he highlighted the significance of the day:

“From Makar Sankranti onwards, the day grows longer by a sesame seed’s width, benefiting all living beings. Similarly, a donation made on this holy day grows like a banyan tree in the future. Life becomes auspicious only through good deeds.” — Dharmacharya Parbhudada

The Spiritual Secret: Bricks from Tiruvannamalai

There is a profound spiritual significance embedded in the very foundation of this new hall.

Mr. Bipinbhai Parmar, President of the Pragateshwar Seva Samiti, revealed that the bricks used in the foundation were not ordinary. These bricks were ceremoniously worshipped during a grand Yagna held at the famous pilgrimage site of Tiruvannamalai in South India, in the presence of Arunachaleshwar Mahadev.

Placing these sanctified bricks in the foundation is believed to infuse the building with divine energy, ensuring that every devotee visiting Achhavani Pragateshwar Dham experiences mental peace and the blessings of Shiva and Shakti.

Event Highlights at a Glance

A Hub for Social Welfare

Pragateshwar Dham is known for treating service to humanity as the highest form of worship. The new hall will support the Dham’s extensive list of ongoing charitable activities:

• Widow Assistance: Providing monthly rations and financial aid to economically vulnerable widows.
• Aid to the Needy: Distribution of clothes, medicines, and educational kits to children from poor families.
• Religious Festivals: Organizing community meals (Bhandara) and Bhajans during Shravan, Diwali, and Makar Sankranti.
• Gau-Seva: Providing fodder and water facilities for cattle.

Future Vision of Pragateshwar Seva Samiti

President Bipinbhai Parmar and his team are committed to the successful completion of this project. The new hall will have the capacity to seat thousands, resolving space constraints during major events.

Future plans for the complex include the construction of a dedicated Kitchen and a Waiting Area (Pratikshalaya) to provide the best facilities for visiting pilgrims. Several donors have already pledged their support, reflecting the immense trust the community places in the institution.

Conclusion: A Symbol of Faith

The Bhumipujan at Achhavani Pragateshwar Dham is a major step toward social upliftment. It is not just a structure of brick and cement, but a sanctuary of faith.

With the blessings of Parbhudada and Ramaba, this Dham is set to emerge as one of the premier service centers in South Gujarat, potentially hosting training centers for widows to become self-reliant in the near future.
