Jay Shree Swaminarayan,

As we all know, Diwali will be celebrated slightly different this year. To keep the excitement going, Yuvak Mandal have organised a few different ways in which we can all get involved and get into the Diwali spirit!

Please see the poster for more information on how you can get involved from home, and the timetable for Dhanteras, Kali Chaudas and Diwali.

Note: the mandir will not be open for Darshan on the evening of Diwali. Aarti, Katha, Laxmi Pujan and the Diwali Special Show will be streamed on our YouTube channel, so don’t forget to tune in!

Should you have any queries please don’t hesitate to contact us.

With our Patotsav fast approaching, please find below a Patrica for all, where the full Patotsav programme can be found.

Details are being released on how you can get involved from home on our social media platforms!

Please note: Mandir will be closed for darshan during the week – last darshan on Sunday 9th (6:30-7:30pm) and will reopen on Sunday 16th (12-2pm).

This year’s ankutt will be comprised of an abundance of fruit! Due to the current Covid-19 guidelines, the mandir will not be accepting any offerings of fruit this year, and instead, ask that anyone who wishes to take part in ankutt seva, makes a donation at the donation desk this week or online via our website (www.eltemple.uk/donation). The funds will then be used to purchase fruit for the ankutt display.

From Monday 10th August, the mandir will be closed to visitors and therefore donations can only be made online from this date onwards.
