participated in Buddha Vandana followed by Dhammacharya Manjuranta & his wife Minaxi Shreshti and their group. The
function was in three part. Buddha Vandana, Cultural program & Dharma Talk. As it was the first Buddhist public function
in Rajkot City. There were also other functions arranged at other places. But this was the first experiment to go to the
public directly with the Buddhist approach. As per the expectations there was less attendance but our effort was 100%
