The event was attended by local children and devotees as well as by over 150 campers from all over the country and abroad. The campers had assembled at CIF who were attending the Adi Sankara Mahotsava camp and a camp conducted by Smt. Vibhutiji and Br. Kutasthaji organised by the Trichy Chinmaya Mission.\u00a0<\/p><p>After the Pooja, everyone sang Pujya Gurudev&#8217;s Jayanti song followed by bhajans by Balavihar children and a dance performance by Anuradha from Chennai. Smt. Sreelekha Nair and Shri Keshavan shared touching stories of the impact Gurudev had on their lives. Devotees got an insight into the KarmaYogi facet of Pujya Gurudev when they saw His &#8220;Attitude to Work&#8221; YouTube video.\u00a0<\/p><p>Swami Advayananda gave the benedictory address in which he mentioned that Lord takes up different avataras such as Poorna Avatar, Amsha Avatar, Aavesha Avatar and Nitya Avatar for the protection of Dharma. In a moving address, Swamiji referred to Pujya Gurudev is one of the Nitya Avataras who has touched our lives and shown us the path towards transforming ourselves.<\/p><p>The celebrations concluded with a Sadya (Traditional Kerala Feast) were offered to all the devotees who came to celebrate the auspicious occasion.\u00a0<\/p><p>In the evening, the Swayambhu Ayyappa Temple shone when in the Chuttuvilakku; 1008 lamps were lit as an offering on Gurudev\u2019s centenary birthday.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element
