Between September and November 2013 over 54,000 devotees participated in the one-day Satsang Shibirs held at BAPS centers throughout Gujarat and Mumbai.
Based on the theme ‘Jivan Mangal Banavie’ – ‘Let Us make Our Life Pious’, the devotees received spiritual guidance from sadguru sadhus, and other experienced and learned sadhus. Five main topics were addressed in each shibir on how to lead a pious life: observance of dharma-niyams, devotion to God, Satsang knowledge, shedding of swabhavs and profound attachment to the Aksharbrahman Satpurush.
At the conclusion of the shibirs, devotees undertook resolutions to observe daily in their quest for spiritual progress.
