Baglung, Aug 5: An Ayurveda dispensary has been established at Sridharacharya Shalagram Museum in Baglung Municipality-4 Kudule Phedi, which is protecting the endangered Shalagram stone.
President of the Federation of Nepali Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Chandra Prasad Dhakal, has inaugurated the dispensary amidst a program on Saturday.
President Dhakal praised the structures built in Panchkot and Sridharacharya Shalagram Museum for the preservation of religion, culture and tradition in Nepal and said that everyone should help from their respective places to preserve and enhance these structures and bring them to their descendants.
Chairman Dhakal, who provided financial support for the construction of Sarva Shiddhidham Panchkot, which was prepared in the imagination of Muktinath Pithadhishwar Kamalyanayan Acharya, said that he will continue to protect and promote his birthplace, tradition, culture and legitimate Sanatan Dharma.
Recently, Sridharacharya Shaalgram Museum is being developed as a gathering place for Hindus visiting Panchkot, Galeshwar and Muktinath. Swami Kamalanayan Acharya said that the dispensary was established in the same place where Muktinath Vedvidyashram is also operating to provide health services to the locals.
Rishi Prapannacharya, president of Sridharacharya Shalagram Museum, said that the establishment of the dispensary, which was envisioned due to the lack of medical treatment during the Corona period, has been completed today.
Muktinath Pithadhiswar Kamalanayan Acharya said that he is on a campaign to make Panchakot, Shaalgram Museum, Galeshwar and Muktinath known as religious tourist places in the world and said that he envisages developing the dispensary as a hospital.
In the program, Purushottam Acharya who contributed to Muktinath Vedavidyashram was felicitated. Dhakal, president of FNCCI, inspected the Shalagram Museum, which was built underground, and observed the underground museum, which includes the religious conditions of the Gandak region.
After the world’s only shalgram museum found in the Kaligandaki river was disappearing, in 2076 Sridharacharya’s museum was built and kept 1.5 million shalgrams. On the occasion of Sridharacharya’s 84th birth anniversary, a dispensary was established in his name.
