New England Shirdi Sai Temple, Chelmsford, MA Celebrating the biggest Annual event of Parivaar, Annual Palkhi Utsav starting with Palkhi initiation on May 23rd through 31st July.

As you all know, NESSP has already acquired 28 acres of a land in Groton, Massachusetts for a permanent temple for our beloved SAI.

Now the time has come for the next stage, an important step that we have been waiting for, the construction of the temple.

To start that process, the first step is to purify the land (Bhoomi Shuddhikaran) and get the land ready to begin the construction. During this auspicious Palkhi event, NESSP invites devotees to perform Bhoomi Shuddhikaran on May 24th, followed by Palkhi procession to houses.

What can be the best way to purify the land, than devotees carrying the “KALASH-JAL” from temple cleansing the land with their hands, as Kanvarias carrying the JAL from Ganges River and offering to Lord Shiva, like Devotee Megha, bringing water from Godavari River and pouring water on to Baba’s head. So let’s all come together and become part of this historic event..Kalash-Jal Bhoomi Shuddhikaran on May 24th, 2015.

Towards our goal of building a temple for Baba, NESSP seeks your generous contributions.

Devotees interested to participate in the Kalash Sponsorship donation, please follow the link and register at http://www.nessp.org/donate.
