Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the Swaminarayan Museum depicting vivid and rare images and artifacts of 250-year-old life and times of Bhagwan Sahajanand Swami at a function in Ahmedabad today.

The museum comprising a dozen halls has been built with eco-friendly technology like solar energy on a 6-acre plot at a cost of Rs.35-crore in the Naranpura locality for the devotees, giving form to the dreams of Kalupur Bhagwan Shri Narayandev head Tejendraprasadji Maharaj's resolution. He belongs to the sixth generation of Bhagwan Swaminarayan.

Addressing a huge religious gathering on the occasion, Mr. Modi said the museum reflects a divine fusion of spirituality, faith and modernism. It should serve as a centre of cultural tourism in Gujarat, too.

He said the saints have always paid a crucial role in preaching service above self to the mankind. He wished the museum helps the new generation utilize the ancient wisdom for sustainable development of the natural resources.

Earlier, Tejendraprasadji Maharaj and Acharya Kaushalendraprasadji welcomed Mr. Modi and blessed him as an exemplary ruler.

“ശ്രീ മന്നത്തു പത്മനാഭനെ അദ്ദേഹത്തിന്റെ ജന്മവാർഷികത്തിൽ അനുസ്മരിക്കുന്നു. സമൂഹത്തിന്റെ ഉന്നമനത്തിനും സ്ത്രീശാക്തീകരണത്തിനും മനുഷ്യരുടെ ദുരിതങ്ങൾ ഇല്ലാതാക്കുന്നതിനും അശ്രാന്തപരിശ്രമം നടത്തിയ യഥാർഥ ദാർശനികനായിരുന്നു അദ്ദേഹം. വിദ്യാഭ്യാസത്തിനും പഠനത്തിനും അദ്ദേഹം നൽകിയ ഊന്നലും ശ്രദ്ധേയമായിരുന്നു. നമ്മുടെ രാഷ്ട്രത്തെക്കുറിച്ചുള്ള അദ്ദേഹത്തിന്റെ കാഴ്ചപ്പാടു നിറവേറ്റാൻ നാം പ്രതിജ്ഞാബദ്ധരാണ്.”
