The famous BAPS Hindu Temple in Abu Dhabi celebrated Ram Navami and Swaminarayan Jayanti with great devotion and joy. This celebration was seen as a big moment for spiritual and cultural unity in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

According to a statement, many devotees from different parts of the region came to the temple to take part in religious and cultural events. The day was filled with prayers, music, and a strong sense of togetherness.

Pujya Brahmavihari Swami, the head priest of the temple, shared the schedule of the full-day celebration. He said, “A full day of celebrations was organised, beginning with Ram Bhajans from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m., followed by the Shri Ram Janmotsav Aarti at noon.”

The temple saw a large number of visitors and devotees coming together in prayer and celebration. “The celebrations witnessed a massive turnout of devotees and visitors, united in devotion to Lord Ram and Bhagwan Swaminarayan. This spiritual gathering served as a beacon of peace, unity, and eternal Hindu values, echoing across borders,” the statement read.

One of the main attractions of the event was a beautiful cultural programme by the BAPS group. A special stage was set up to look like the holy meeting point of the Ganga, Yamuna, and Saraswati rivers. The young performers used music, drama, and stories to show the inspiring life of Lord Ram. The performance deeply touched the audience.
