In the esteemed presence of Pujya Mahant Swami 1093 yuvak and yuvati karyakars representing over 825 centres from throughout Gujarat attended a three-day shibir from 27-30 May 2004 at Gadhada.

The theme of this year’s shibir was ‘Jiva nu Jivan’. The four principles which constitute the lifeline for all jivas, as described by Gunatitanand Swami, were emphasised: upasana, agna, priti for the Satpurush and suhradbhav for all devotees.

Through the experienced guidance of Mahant Swami and other sadhus, the principles were explained in detail. The shibir theme was also re-inforced through message-oriented games, discussions, audiovisual presentations and video blessings of Pramukh Swami Maharaj.

These youth volunteers gained renewed vigour to progress in their personal spiritual endeavours and in their duties as karyakars.
