B.A.P.S Akshardham Mahamandir Shilanyas Mahotsav, NJ, USA













Swamis, devotees, and well-wishers celebrated the sacred foundation stone-laying ceremony of the Akshardham Mahamandir on 6, 8, and 9 October 2011. The celebration consisted of six sacred Vedic ceremonies - two on each day – marking the start of construction of the Akshardham Mahamandir. The usual green landscape of this site off of U.S. Highway 130 was transformed into a paradise of gleaming colors and captivating sounds. Christine Ciaccio, Robbinsville City Council President, was awed by the site's transformation. "We have come a long way in the last year. The buildings are coming up fast and I can see the love and excitement radiating everywhere. When I speak with the youth, I feel their confidence. The parents love it. The community loves it."
