On 14 May, Santo and haribhakto gathered in the early morning to celebrate the auspicious occasion of Shri Thakorji’s Pãtotsav. Dhun and prayer filled the mandir hall, and at 6.30am the Pãtotsav viddhi commenced in the divine presence of Guruvary Param Pujya Sahebji.

Vratdhari Santo tied Nãdã-chadi to all taking part in the viddhi and Sankalps were made. The sacred Pãtotsav pujan was performed at the hands of Guruvarya Param Pujya Sahebji, Pujya Ashvinbhai, Pujya Harshadbhai, Pujya Gopalbhai, Pujya Arvindhbhai Prabhu, Pujya Vasubhai and Pujya Dilipbhai.

This was followed by charan-abhishek of Shri Thãkorji’s murti by Vratdhãri Santo and Yajmãn. The curtains were drawn and when they re-opened, the darshan of Shri Thãkorji’s shringar were captivating, magnetically drawing everyone’s attention into the murti.
