Sanatan Sanstha’s Saint, Sadguru (Mrs) Anjali Gadgil has toured India for more than 4 years and has collected photographs of ancient temples, architectures, forts and objects worth preserving. That is why we are able to pay reverence to such divine ancient temples and premises sitting in comfort at home. So, let us offer gratitude unto the Holy feet of Paratpar Guru (Dr) Jayant Athavale and Sadguru (Mrs) Anjali Gadgil for this !
