 Maharajji at Kainchi
The artisans and masons engaged in the construction work has an early
bath and wearing clean clothes began work, reciting Hanuman Chalissa
and chanting "Maharajji Ki Jai" (glory to Maharajji). When the
construction work was on, the devotees also recited Hanuman Chalissa
and did Kirtan by singing (Shri Rama - Jai Rama - Jai Jai Rama)>
Mothers also writing "Ramnam" on the bricks passed them on to the
workers. The whole atmosphere vibrated with the chanting of "Baba Neem
Karoli Maharaj Ki Jai". Influenced by the ardent devotion of the
Mothers for Babaji, the workers also developed the same feeling of
devotion, faith, reverance and love. It was Babaji's lila that he
infused these workers with the qualities of Vishwakarma (the architect
of Gods) and they remained busy with the construction work.
Now came 15th June 1976, the day for installation and consecration of
Maharajji's murti. Maharajji Himself had fixed June 15th as the
consecration of Kainchidham.
The Bagvat saptah and yajna etc. were completed before the installation
and consecration ceremony. The devotees installed Kalash and hoisted
flag on the temple with the sound of bells, gongs, drums and conches.
The sky vibrated with the sound of clapping. Kirtan and slogans of
glory to Babaji. The atmosphere was ecstatic and everyone had the
feeling of Babaji Maharaj's physical presence. Then with recitation of
hymns from Vedas and with the specified method of consecration ceremony
and worship, Maharajji's murti was installed. In this way, Babaji
Maharaj in the form of a murti is seated in Shri KainchiDham.
