My dear Shri Hareshbhai Mehta,
I am happy to get the news from you about the celebration of Pratishtha Mahot at the Hindu-Jain Temple. This is a very blessed and auspicious occasion in the history of Columbia, South Carolina. It is a great event in which various religious people come together to build a temple of unity to experience divinity in diversity.
A temple is a place where mankind experiences harmony of head, heart and hand to liberate oneself from the tyrannies of materialisin and to find the freedom from within and without. This edifice will be a Temple of Parliament of Gods, with people from all walks of life participating and experiencing the presence of divine light. I am sure that this forum will unite people of various paths as flowers of humanity to create a garland of unity.
The devotees must remember the sanctity of this Temple and enter with nusic of love, peace and reverence. As people discard their shoes before entering a temple, in the same way let everyone discard one's ego, pride and sectarian fanaticism, particularly in the temple and generally in everyday life.
My hearty blessings be in the hearts of all who enter this temple and in the hearts of all who can make a difference in the world by spreading peace and harmony through non-violence.
Love and blessings,
Chitrabhanke
