Shri Gajanan Maharaj Sarv Seva Nyas, Sangvi Pune - 27
The practice of the Maharaja’s palanquin service at Sangvi was to continue for many years to come. For that, a permanent arrangement had to be made. Mr. Balasaheb Dhore, who lives mostly in Mumbai for business, was worried about this. The idea came up about having a temple of Maharaj in Sangvi village. That was Shri Balasaheb’s inner desire.
He had a plot of five guntas adjacent to the main road in front of the school grounds. He had set it up for the temple. Now Balasaheb revealed it to everyone. The owners of the surrounding plots were among the devotees. No one objected. Dada Hande had an idea. One day Balasaheb came to the plot with all the workers. All the boundaries shown and fixed.
At a good moment, Dada Hande and Hande Vahini, in the presence of two or four activists, also performed Bhumi Pujan at the hands of Brahmins. A small temple was built on this site, ten to eleven feet from the original road. There was a photo of the Maharaja and the Paduka. The daily pooja started. The flow of small donations began. Shri Gajanan Maharaj’s palanquin was kept on the ota in front of this small temple every year. The place was sanctified by the rest of the Maharaja’s palanquin.
Everyone wanted to build a big temple in this place. Prior to that, the organization was required to register a trust. Trust registration done. Along with religion, a multi-purpose trust was established. Name of the Trust – Shri Gajanan Maharaj Sarv Seva Nyas
