BAPS Adelaide celebrated His Holiness Pramukh Swami Maharaj’s birth centenary at the Adelaide
Convention Centre on 16 October 2022. The celebration at the Adelaide Convention Centre was a

on improving themselves and their inner nature, to lead healthy lifestyles, giving up addictions, and
to keep God and spirituality at the centre of all activities.

volunteers to follow in his footsteps by selflessly serving the community.
