Significance of Trafalgar Square

Jeevanpran Swamibapa at Trafalgar Square

Acharya Swamishree at Trafalgar Square

Jeevanpran Shree Muktejeevan Swamibapa first visited London in 1970. In His honour, a magnificent Peace Parade was held through the streets of Central London, which culminated in a special congregation in Trafalgar Square.

This event included cultural dance and music performances on an especially erected stage. Jeevanpran Swamibapa was one of the first, if not the first, Hindu leader to hold such a congregation in the Square. Since then, our Organisation has maintained a particular affinity with the Square. In 2000, a Procession of Peace through the streets of Central London culminated here; in 2002, our very own Shree Muktajeevan Pipe Band reopened the renovated Square; and in 2005, the Band led Mayor Ken Livingstone to the stage during his own ‘Diwali in the Square’ celebrations.

These events exemplify our special relationship with Trafalgar Square – a tradition we will continue in years to come. These celebrations in Trafalgar Square have established our Organisation as an integral part of our great City’s diverse culture.
