Vasant Panchmi has been an integral part of the Hindu festival calendar for thousands of years and holds special significance in the Swaminarayan Sampraday. On this auspicious day, two of Bhagwan Swaminarayan’s eminent paramhansas, Nishkulanand Swami and Brahmanand Swami, were born. Vasant Panchmi also commemorates the advent of the Shikshapatri and the birth of Shastriji Maharaj, the third spiritual successor of Bhagwan Swaminarayan and the founder of the BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha.

Fuldol, also known as Pushpadolotsav, is celebrated on Fagun Vad 1, the day after Holi. During this vibrant festival, devotees place Bhagwan’s murti in a hindolo adorned with colorful flowers. The gentle swinging of the hindolo symbolizes their desire for God’s presence and a life enriched with devotion and spiritual vibrancy. Participants joyfully spray colors, expressing the festival’s spirit and seeking God’s blessings for a life filled with color, devotion, and divine grace.

A special cultural program featuring kirtans, spiritual discourses, traditional dances, and dramas depicting the lives of Bhagwan Swaminarayan and Bhagwan Ram organized and performed by the children and youth of BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha.

A women’s cultural event celebrating Bhagwan Swaminarayan and Bhagwan Ram will feature spiritual talks, traditional dances, and engaging skits.
