Port Shepstone Arya Samaj celebrates Vedic culture
Various speakers delivered inspiring messages rooted in the Vedas, encouraging unity, service, and continued spiritual growth.
Members of the Port Shepstone Arya Samaj hosted a milestone event at the Arya Bhavan recently – 150 years of the organisation’s existence, 100 years in South Africa, and 65 years in Port Shepstone.
Members, families, and guests gathered to celebrate a vibrant and spiritually uplifting event filled with devotion, unity, and cultural pride.
The event opened with a hawan ceremony conducted by Pandit Dharmanand Raghubir together with the executive members. The sacred ritual invoked peace, purity, and blessings for the community. It was followed by a flag-hoisting procession, where members proudly walked in unity, singing inspirational songs and reaffirming their commitment to Vedic values.
The milestone was a powerful reminder of the enduring legacy of Maharishi Dayanand Saraswati and the community’s commitment to truth, knowledge, and social upliftment.
The organisation’s Ayushi Singh said: “Distinguished guests included Swami Vedanand Saraswati, Pandit Kirun Satgoor, Pandit Dharmanand Raghubir, and respected community figure Dr Bisram Rambilas. Each speaker delivered inspiring messages rooted in the Vedas, encouraging unity, service, and continued spiritual growth.”
The youth showcased their talent and connection to Vedic culture through vibrant dance and music.
