Shree Swaminarayan Museum There is a saying in Gujarat that, dialect changes at places situated at a distance of 12 kms. Similarly, style of tying turban upon head also changes in each Prant of Gujarat. However, now a days in this modern age nobody is seen tying turban. But during the time of Shreeji Maharaj, devotees and Haribhaktas used to offer turban to Shreeji Maharaj during Vicharan; Shreeji Maharaj Himself was expert in tying turban upon the head. We find description of various types of turbans in Kirtans created by Nand saints. Many such turbans are placed for divine Darshan in our Museum. By performing Darshan of these turbans, we get reminded of Leela Chartira of Shreeji Maharaj. As these turbans have been preserved in tact in their original form, the devotees and Haribhaktas who perform divine Darshan, get excited about them and feel divine presence of Shreeji Maharaj in them. The spots of perspiration on one of the turbans, used while lifting stones for construction of our temple are still preserved. Whereas some of the turbans emit the sweet fragrance of beautiful flowers. In one turban, the great history and memory of Shreeji Maharaj are hidden. So whenever our devotees visit our Museum then they should not miss the opportunity to perform divine Darshan of these turbans. (Praful Kharsani) Nirnay-Vrat-Utsav of our Sampradaya is published in the form of a book. But now from this year, its app. (application) is prepared and placed in the Apple Store which can be downloaded in I-phone and I-pad. It is also made available on Google Play. These applications have been prepared by our devotee Shri Umangbhai Harishbhai Patel (Kaushalam). Earlier also, he has prepared application of Shiksha Patri in the voice of H.H. Shri Mota Maharaj and made available in Apple Store and website of Shree Swaminarayan Museum has also been prepared by him. Moreover, smooth live streaming on our www.swaminarayan.dot.in site is also due to him only. H.H. Shri Acharya Maharaj and H.H. Shri Mota Maharaj are very much pleased and have MAY-2013 • 12
