Dear Friends:
It is a pleasure to send greetings to everyone attending this year's Pratishtha Mohatsav celebration. I am delighted to join with the Jain Center of America and all those gathered for this very special occasion.
February 9, 2005
For nearly three decades, the center has been a tremendous source of support for our City's Jain community, and on behalf of the City of New York, I recognize its dedicated members for making this event possible. This is a wonderful way for you to come together in honor of your shared faith and in commemoration of the opening of your new temple. This new facility will allow you to welcome even more members of your faith and assist you in furthering your important initiatives.

New York City is proud to be the home of the fist Jain Center in North America, and I wish all its members much success with your new temple and in all your future pursuits.
Sincerely,
Blondary whey
