Sanskruti Parivar Sammelan, New Jersey, USA

Param Pujya Bhaishri addressed a Sanskruti Parivar Sammelan in New Jersey on June 18, 2005. More than 100 invited devotees along with Parivar Sancharaks: Shree Bipanbhai Parekh (Boston), Shree Thakorbhai Patel (South Jersey) and Shree Kiritbhai Shah (North Jersey) attended the gathering. At the beginning of the program a video for the planned Sandipani Mandir Mahotsav and Bhagavat Katha (Scheduled February 2006) was shown.

Devotees offered garlands to Pujya Bhaishri. Pujya Bhaishri advised the devotees to “Follow the rules and enjoy your stay”. He also stated that rules are made by God, society and government. One should follow the rules in life to be happy, remain happy and make others happy – not to be miserable, remain miserable and to make others miserable. There are two sets of rules: Yam and Niyam. Yam makes one fearless and others not fearful. Niyam guides the soul on the spiritual path.

Bhaishri explained goals and activities of Vaishvik Sanskruti Parivar and gave report on current Parivar activities in Bharat. Also, Pujya Bhaishri personally invited all devotees to attend the Mahotsav. It was a memorable and spiritually uplifting event for all the devotees. Currently there are six Sanskruti Parivar centers in the United States. If someone is interested in starting a new Satsang Parivar Center in USA, please contact Arvindbhai Patel at (973) 256-2472.
