Published On: August 24, 2025

At Shree Swaminarayan Gurukul Bangalore, a heartwarming Alumni Get-Together was held, where former students from Bangalore, Chennai, Uttar Pradesh, and many other places joyfully reunited with their Gurukul family. The day was filled with devotion, nostalgia, and togetherness.

The event began at the saint’s ashram, where alumni humbly sought the blessings of the saints. Swamiji lovingly tied a rakhi to each alumnus, offered basin laddu, and presented a khanti as a sacred symbol of Gurukul’s eternal bond with its students. With gratitude in their hearts, the alumni then explored their alma mater. Witnessing the remarkable growth and development of Gurukul after years brought both pride and joy, as they reminisced about their student life.

The group then gathered at the temple for darshan of Bhagwan Swaminarayan. Swamiji joined them for a special Batchmate Interaction, where alumni shared their life journeys, career achievements, and treasured memories of Gurukul. The atmosphere was filled with laughter, inspiration, and a deep sense of unity. Adding liveliness to the occasion, a cheerful “Pick and Speak” game was organized, allowing alumni to express their thoughts with fun and spontaneity.

The spiritual highlight of the program was the aarti of Bhagwan Shri Krishna, followed by the energetic Matki Phod celebration, which filled the environment with devotion and enthusiasm. Swamiji then blessed everyone with the unique Chocolate Hindola Prasad, spreading sweetness in both heart and spirit.

Afterwards, all enjoyed a grand Outdoor Lunch Prasad featuring a delicious menu of gulab jamun, masala buttermilk, puri, chole bhature, pulav, rice, sambhar, chevda, and a variety of sweets. The meal not only satisfied the taste buds but also symbolized the joy of togetherness.

The alumni departed with hearts full of joy, blessings, and cherished memories, carrying the spirit of Gurukul forever within them.
