PRESIDENT S MESSAGE Dear Brothers, Sisters and loving young friends, Jai Shree Ram! Time is really flying by super-fast, and 2019 is fast approaching!!! The Festive Season is on, and after celebrating the auspicious Festivals of Diwali & Govardhan Pooja, all eyes are now focused on the upcoming New Year Celebrations. Every Year, the entire Hari Om Parivar looks forward to seek Blessings from God Almighty on the 1 st of January, and wish each other a prosperous future. In the past years, we have been organizing Akhand Ramayan Path, starting on the 31 st of Dec and concluding on the 1 st of Jan, but with the growing age of our senior members, due to practical reasons and difficulties for a 24Hour commitment, the Boards have decided to have celebrations only on the 1 st Day of the New Year. So, this Year, I would like to invite you all to join us on the 1 st of January for Bhajans and /or Sunder Kand Path and seek Blessings for a Prosperous, Healthy & Happy New Year. HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL ON THE 1 ST OF JAN, 2019!!! I would also like to take this opportunity to THANK & CONGRATULATE all the Members of my TEAM for putting in extra efforts to make the festivals of Diwali and Annakut so Special & Grand. Melodious, Soft & Silky Bhajans presented by Smt. Indrani Joshi on the occasion of Diwali, mesmerized the Devotees. My sincere thanks to the ladies of the Mahila Mandal who arranged the program and sponsored the Food. My thanks also to Pandit Dinesh Kumar Ji, for organizing a splendid display of Chappan Bhog. It was amazing to see, mountains of Food Items displayed at the Lotus Feet of Lord Krishna, and then Prasad relished by ALL the Fortunate Devotees!!! Last but not the least, a BIG THANK YOU to ALL the Volunteers young Boys & Girls, Men & Women, who lined up to help transport & set up the food in the Basement Hall, in a very peaceful & organized manner. Just to give you all an update on the Projects that the Mandir is working on: The Murti of Baba Balak Nath Ji has arrived and will soon be Installed in the Shiv Darbar area. Construction work to set up a Pedestal and make an appropriate place for the Murti is now in progress, and soon the Date for the formal Pran Pratishtha will be announced. Also, after the first Revision, the updated Drawings for the Elevator Project have been approved. Hopefully, we shall soon start working on Elevator and Expansion project. As always, please feel free to send your feedback and suggestions for the improvement and growth of your Temple. I, along with my Team, shall always try to SERVE you better. Looking forward to YOUR Continued Support & Cooperation!!! With Sincere Regards, Vipan Wadhera.
