Jai Mataji Jai Mataji!, Jai Mata Ji

It is my absolute pleasure and honour to be here with you all today for this auspicious Navchandi Havan, hosted by the remarkable Umiya Parivar (Oo-me-ya Purr-i-vaar) Australia.

Parivar, as we all know, means family—and today, we are witnessing something truly extraordinary.

Thirty-eight community groups have come together as one united Parivar. This isn’t just a gathering—it is a powerful symbol of unity, devotion, and strength.

In fact, this is now the second-largest Parivar celebration of its kind in all of Australia. What an incredible achievement—congratulations to you all.

Let me especially acknowledge the outstanding work of Umiya Parivar Australia—not just today, but throughout the year.

Your commitment to nurturing families, especially the younger generation, is so inspiring.

You are truly shaping future leaders with strong cultural roots and a deep sense of community.

The Umiya Parivar is not just an organisation—it is a beacon of light, hope, and harmony.

Yours is a vibrant and spiritual community, one that thrives through devotion, joy, and unity.

Through your sewa, your charitable work, educational programs, cultural preservation, and spiritual practice, you continue to make invaluable contributions to Australia’s multicultural society.

Today’s Navchandi Havan is particularly significant and symbolic. We celebrate one year since the divine arrival of Shree Umiya Mataji in Australia. That milestone alone makes this event incredibly special.

Shree Umiya Mataji—the divine mother, the guiding kuldevi (cool-devi)—is a source of strength, wisdom, and empowerment.

She represents Shakti, the divine feminine energy that gives life, protects, nurtures, and uplifts.

And how wonderful that we are celebrating her just a month after International Women’s Day. Because Umiya Mataji’s blessings have always championed the role of women—not only in families, but in leading communities, upholding culture, and carrying forward timeless values.

So, to all the beautiful, bold, and brilliant women here today—Jai Mataji.

May Mataji bless you and your families with health, wealth, peace, and prosperity.

Your devotion and your presence truly light up this community.

I’m also very excited about the future.

I’ve had the chance to meet with members of the community and learn more about the Shree Umiya Dham Temple Project in Marsden Park.

This will be more than a mandir—it will be a spiritual and cultural landmark, a place of prayer and peace, a centre for learning and celebration.

It will be a home for generations, and I am proud to stand with you in helping make that dream a reality.

Thank you once again for inviting me to be part of this joyous and sacred occasion.

I am honoured to be part of your growing Parivar and to stand with you today—and always—as your friend and your representative.

Jai Mataji!

May the blessings of Shree Umiya Mataji continue to guide and protect us all.
