Pramukh Swami Maharaj's Achievements and Activities
1 January - 31 December, 2001
Non-stop vicharan, murti pratishthas, inaugurations, meeting dignitaries, daily satsang and public assemblies, satsang shibirs and much much more... all this, in addition to his daily routine of
counselling thousands of devotees personally, by letter and by phone. Despite a year interspersed
by frequent bouts of illness, Swamishri's annual record, summarised below, reveals just how
activity-packed his schedule has been.
