With the inspiration of Pramukh Swami Maharaj, the National Sanyukta Mandal Shibir with the theme “Samjan” was held in the presence of Kothari Swami at BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir, London on Sunday 27 July 2008.

The aim of the Shibir was to develop “Samjan” or understanding in Satsang. This was achieved through inspiring speeches and prasangs by sadhus as well as an enlightening question-answer session with Kothari Swami.

Kothari Swami elucidated the type of understanding we should keep while doing Satsang. Other sadhus narrated incidents of devotees from the time of Bhagwan Swaminarayan to the present day. The incidents highlighted how under adverse circumstances, the devotees maintained their attachment to Satsang and the Satpurush. Due to samjan, they were able to pass through their times of difficulty.
