Welcoming of VIPs and Official function on Stage

On the occasion of Jayanthi of their beloved Guru, the sacred Pada Puja was offered by the devotees to the hallowed feet of The Avatar. In Hindu tradition, worshiping the Guru's feet is the sweetest and most sacred ritual as it is from one's Guru that everything needed for one's life is received, enlightenment being the foremost. In deep gratitude for it, the disciples offer the Pada Puja (Pada - Feet, Puja - Worship) to His sacred feet, soaking in His Divine Presence and elevating their existence spiritually every moment.
