Pramukh Swami Maharaj's Achievements and Activities
1 January - 31 December, 2002
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.
