BAPS LA - Announcements

🙏 Jai Swaminarayan! Join us tomorrow (9/27) for our next English Sabha as we dive into Vachanamrut Gadhada III-17 and explore: 📖 The Paradox of Bharatji Why did Bharatji—who renounced an entire kingdom—later become deeply attached to a deer? What can his story teach us about attachment, spiritual focus, and staying vigilant on our path toward Bhagwan? 🎙 Speaker: Pujya Adarshnayan Swami 📅 Sunday, September 27 ⏰ 12:00 PM – 1:30 PM 📍 Gym @ BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir, Los Angeles We look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow! 🙏

Jay Swãminãrãyan Tomorrow, Tuesday, September 22nd, is Jal Jhilani Ekadashi. The founder of BAPS, Brahmaswarup Shastriji Maharaj spent his life understanding and bringing to life the inner wishes of Bhagwan Swaminarayan. He was the epitome of virtue and ideal devotion. Shastriji Maharaj has said that devotees should do a waterless fast on five occasions each year. Tomorrow is one such occasion, the halfway point of Chāturmās - Jal Jhilani Ekadashi. On the eve of this auspicious occasion, we pray to Maharaj and Swami to infuse all haribhakto with the courage and strength to follow through on this agna and inner wish of our gurus.
