The journey for the long tour started on 15-Nov-2018 from Dombivili around 09.00 am and we reached Gondawale after visiting Mahad, Narayani Temple, Lonawala and Shikhar Shinganapur. We all were excited to travel about 6000 km and we halted at Gondawale at Guru's Samadhi Mandir.

Shikhar Shinganapur Mandir built in Hemadpanthi architecture by King Sindhan from Yadav dynasty. Visited this place many times and every time moved out from there with some satisfaction.

Shri Gondavalekar Maharaj Temple, Gondawale The holy shrine called Samadhi Mandir was built at place where the master's last rites were performed. Shri Brahmanand, one of the dearest disciples of Shri Maharaj, was appointed as one of the Trustees by the master himself in his will. Under his able guidance the solid foundation of this institution which is today known as Chaitanyaopasana, Shri Gondavalekar Maharaj Trust, was laid. Even today all activities and rituals are in line with principles and guidelines set by Shri Brahmanand.
Great start to a trip if 18 days!!
