You can sponsor the Bhagwan Nityananda Hall

Construction began in April on our beautiful new hall. More than double the size of the existing tent, it will feature a statue of Bhagwan Nityananda made by the craftsmen who created the original Ganeshpuri statue. Share in the shakti by sponsoring a part of the construction – for example a window, a door or a ceiling – there is a whole list to choose from.
