Arya Samaaj Mandir Mussoorie


 This is the photo of Arya Samaj Mandir at Mussoorie. Its address is F34R+FJG, Defence Colony, Rajmandi, Landour, Mussoorie, Uttarakhand 248179. This is famous locally for hosting marriage under the Arya Samaj tradition

While Shri Nathji was in Mussoorie in 1957 he was invited by the Arya Samaaj Mandir at Mussoorie on the 20th of September. It was astonishing that even Arya Samaaji’s invited him to speak to them. This had happened many times in Delhi as well as in Lahore.
 Lala Hargopal Khanna, Mateshwari’s father, had himself been the president of the Arya Samaaj at Lahore.


 The Arya Samaaji’s regarded Shri Nathji as a perfect embodiment of spirituality even though they could not conceive of such a being as the Avatar. It did not matter to Shri Nathji; to each he was his own. Many Arya Samaaj intellectuals used to say to him in Delhi: “Your words pierce the heart. Ours is mere intellectual reasoning. Hamaari to sirf lecture baazi hai!”
 It was thus that members of all faiths accepted Shri Nathji as one of them. Shri Nathji’s ability to speak on all religions with such penetrating power was astonishing.
