Decennial Celebrations of Shikharji at Siddhachalam and Temple Anniversary

Respectful Invitation

Jai Jinendra! Hope this finds you and yours safe and well.

Ten years ago, you made history in helping us bring Shikharji@Siddhachalam darshan to North America. Since then thousands of yatries have completed Shikharji yatra and have returned home with a resolve to continue to support and preserve the teachings of the Jinnas through support of Shikharji@Siddhachalam for the future generations of our children and grandchildren.

Come and join with your family and friends in the celebrations of Shikharji tenth anniversary at your tirth! There will be Vargoda, cultural program, bhakti-sadhna, and essential annual temple vidhis and Shikharji at Siddhachalam dhwajarohan. Here are the details:
