Address At The Dedication Assembly Of Swaminarayan Akshardham Cultural Complex New Delhi

The mother embraces her children

My journey commenced,

In my ancestral home.

Loving families with multiple cradles,

Of the civilization of my nation.

My mother embraced me with love,

I felt the soft touch of my mother?s hand.

I cried and cried,

She kissed me.

I saw the dawn of

Civilizational abode Akshardham.
