72nd Birthday Celebration at Surat, Gujarat

Happy Birthday Pujyashree!!!

This time, the land of Surat, had the great fortune of hosting the 72^nd Birthday of our most beloved Pujyashree!!!

Nevertheless, Pujyashree’s birthday celebrations began at Adalaj, with the followers from the rest of the world joining in online for the Kirtan-Bhakti, where each one prayed for a long and healthy life of Pujyashree. During the day, these prayers continued to pour in, in one form or another, from every corner on the digital platforms as well. The followers enthusiastically shared with each other the lovely creations of text messages, images and videos that revolved around Pujyashree’s life, highlighting His enchanting smile, His simple outlook in life as well as the blessings that Param Pujya Dada Bhagwan and Pujya Niruma have more than happily kept showering upon Him with seamless love and ceaseless affection!!!

At Surat, there was a special evening programme, organized in the auspicious presence of Pujyashree, for the benefit of everyone. A live relay also was arranged so that people from every corner of the world could join in too. Surat known for its food, the programme began with a Foodmela. People ate to their heart’s full and then assembled in the ground where Pujyashree was having His dinner. After dinner, Pujyashree was requested to come and cut the cake. As the followers sang, in chorus, the Happy Birthday song, Pujyashree climbed up the stage, bowed before Simandhar Swami, Param Pujya Dada Bhagwan and Pujya Niruma and took their special blessings!!! Amidst the audience’s applause, He cut the cake. Thereafter, He seeked blessings from the followers present on the ground there as well as those connected in the live relay of this programme.

Pujyashree was then garlanded with a long and lovely rose garland, after which the little kids ran upto Him and presented to their most beloved Pujyashree a very big and beautiful birthday card!! Thereafter, the followers together made a special heart-felt prayer to Goddess Amba, where they urged to the Goddess that may Pujya Deepakbhai be graced with a long life and uninterrupted good health.

Soon after this prayer, began an awesome drama that captured the entire audience’s hearts. This beautifully scripted and enacted play was based on the ‘Nav Kalam’ that depicted how ‘bhavana sudhare bhavobhav’. 

Finally, to conclude the celebration of this auspicious day, Pujyashree gave blessings to all the followers for progressing on the path of Salvation.
