To celebrate Brahmaswarup Pramukh Swami Maharaj’s 100th birthday, more than 2,700 young and old devotees attended the one-day Vanchan Parayans (readings) of Pramukh Swami Maharaj’s Jivan Charitra Parts 4 and 5 organized at BAPS centers across Australia and New Zealand during December 2021.
The parayan locations were beautifully decorated and each parayan commenced with pujan and arti. Devotees participated in 20-minute sessions by reading the text from where the previous participant had stopped.
Following their participation in this endeavor, many resolved to read Pramukh Swami Maharaj’s Jivan Charitra on a daily basis.
