Hey Pune folks, have you heard about the amazing display happening at the Sakhalipir Talim Rashtriya Maruti Temple? The temple is currently hosting a public Ganesh festival featuring the sacred ‘padukas’ of 18 saints. How cool is that?
The inauguration of this unique display took place on Monday, September 9, and was led by the one and only entrepreneur Punit Balan. The event was attended by key figures such as Ravindra Malvadkar, the President of the temple, and other important members of the community.
The display includes the padukas of revered saints like Sant Dnyaneshwar, Muktabai, Namdev, and even Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. Each day, from September 9 to 15, the padukas of one saint will be highlighted, bringing a touch of spirituality and cultural significance to the festival.
The Sakhalipir Talim Rashtriya Maruti Temple has a rich history of 105 years and is dedicated to promoting national unity. The temple has been actively involved in social initiatives, such as ‘Vanchitanchi Diwali’ for the underprivileged and ‘Sarvadharmiya Ashadhi Wari’ to foster communal harmony.
During the event, Punit Balan praised the temple’s Ganesh Festival Committee for their social initiatives and community-driven events. He commended the volunteers for their hard work and dedication, and expressed his support for their future endeavors.
The display of the saints’ padukas and the temple’s social initiatives serve as a reminder of the importance of promoting social harmony through cultural and spiritual events. So, if you’re in Pune, make sure to check out this grand display at the Sakhalipir Talim Rashtriya Maruti Temple before September 15!
