Upcoming New Spiritual Centres in the City of Mumbai: The Mission’s main centre is currently at Patel Chambers in South Bombay. Pujya Gurudevshri has planned 6 new spiritual centres in different parts of the city – Sion-Matunga, Dahisar-Borivali, Santacruz-Vile Parle, Mulund, Ghatkopar and Bandra-Kurla Complex (BKC). These centres will enable people in these areas to have their own Arpit Group Meetings, Youth Group Meetings, SRLC activities, even Sadhana Bhattis, Yoga TTC and Sound-healing TTC for those who cannot make it to Dharampur. At BKC which hosts several corporate offices, a unique initiative is planned – three half-an-hour meditation sessions, so one can recharge, rejuvenate and get back to work. The Mission thanks Vijaybhai Chheda from Matunga, Maulik Doshi from Ghatkopar and Piyush Gada from Sion-Matunga for offering their space at these locations. For other centres too, space and references are sought – 3500-5000 Sq. Ft. in an easily accessible location for existing and new seekers. To offer space or references, please contact Sarvarpit Rushabh Mehta +91 9821029898.
