Dear Devotees
Message from Dr Madhu Baksh, President of Greenwich Hindu Mandir
On behalf of Greenwich Hindu Mandir I take great honour and pleasure in congratulating the Trustees and congregation of
Maha Lakshmi Vidya Bhavan (formerly Maha Lakshmi Satsang) as you celebrate with us your 25th anniversary.
Greenwich Hindu Mandir and Maha Lakshmi Vidya Bhavan (MLVB) have been in close contact with each other ever since the
mid-1980s and have developed a bond and mutual friendship and admiration. Our Trustees and congregation regularly visit
each others' establishments to provide the necessary support, help and advice.
We have therefore been privileged to witness the remarkable progress which the Maha Lakshmi Vidya Bhavan has made
during the last 25 years. This group of dedicated Hindus have not only kept alive the principles and traditions of the Hindu
religion (which is one of the most ancient religions world-over), but also have been promoting the understanding of its
peaceful philosophy. It is with great devotion and continuous efforts of the Trustees and the congregation of Maha Lakshmi
Vidya Bhavan that this exceptional success has been achieved.
On 9th September you and your dedicated team acquired a beautiful Temple in Forest Hill and I along with other members of
Greenwich Hindu Mandi, were honoured to attend the Murti Sthapana celebrations. Since the establishment of a suitable
Venue, Maha Lakshmi Vidya Bhavan promoted their work in a very big way and in 2003 the Spiritual Co-ordinator, Shri
Bankim Gossai, was honoured by the Queen and granted an MBE. Your exemplary and inspirational work has set a model for
all of us.
As you celebrate your Silver Jubilee, we at Greenwich Hindu Mandir congratulate you for such unstinted devotion and love for
our religion and culture and wish MLVB every success in the future.
