Inauguration Ceremony of Shri Bageshwar Balaji Sanatan Muth

Bhiwandi, Maharashtra – “Every person living in Hindustan is a Hindu. We are not against Muslims. Today, due to a fearful environment, Hindus are fleeing from Bengal. The same could happen in Maharashtra tomorrow, and later in Madhya Pradesh. Efforts are being made by a particular community to intimidate Hindus, which is condemnable. Muslims will benefit if they live according to the law of the land in India,” said Pandit Dhirendra Shastri, head of Shri Bageshwar Dham Math.
The second such math in the country and the first in Maharashtra, Shri Bageshwar Balaji Sanatan Muth, has been established at Highway Dive in Bhiwandi. Its inauguration ceremony was held on April 14, during which he made these remarks.
He further said, “Many common and economically weaker devotees of Bageshwar Balaji from Maharashtra cannot travel to Madhya Pradesh. For such devotees, the Bageshwar Balaji Dham in Bhiwandi is a great opportunity. This muth will become a center for spreading Sanatan Dharma and a place of deep faith for devotees.”
