Over 200 devotees came together to celebrate the birth of both Lord Rama and Lord Swaminarayan with devotion and joyousness. The theme of the celebration was "Maala Na Manka." Shriji Maharaj's utsav murti was placed in a specially decorated sinhasan that was decorated with flowers and had Shree Ram's and Pramukh Swami Maharaj's murtis placed on it as well. The cultural program was magnificently organized. The evening began with performances by the vadil and kishore mandals followed by a drama / dance performed by the bal mandal. The excellence of the half-hour drama / dance capped off a wonderful evening for all.
