Opinions of Chief Guests

Sri Sri Sri Tridandi Chinna Srimannarayana Ramanuja Jeeyar Swamiji:

         There is a need to build a temple in the society, but there is an even greater need for the construction of a mind-temple, which Shree Swaminarayan Gurukul is doing by imparting the spiritual knowledge and wisdom to the students. Shree Swaminarayan Gurukul is doing the work of bridging between gaps in today’s education system. 

Honourable Ex. Chief Justice N. V. Ramanagaru:

         Education is the most powerful means to change the world. The Combination of Modern learning & Spiritual learning is most necessary in today’s modern era which Shree Swaminarayan Gurukul is providing to the society.

 

Dr. Ella Krishna Sir:

         I heard about Devalokam earlier, but I didn’t know how it is and where it is? After reaching Swaminarayan Gurukul I felt this to be true devalokam. I will tell you, young children! Don’t think that you are in a bad shape; but you will realize when you grow up. What moral values given to you, will give courage to you such that you can fight anything in the world, and I wish you all the best.
