The University held its Eighth Annual w88 sports betting Baccalaureate Service May 3. The service was focused around a sermon delivered to graduates participating in the event. During the service, various denominations of Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, Jewish, Native American and Baha'I religious leaders blessed graduating students.
Prepared by the Universal Society of Hinduism in collaboration with the w88 sports betting's Indian w88 sports betting Organization, the event began with traditional lamp-lighting before a statue of goddess Saraswati, patron of learning and the arts. President Rajan Zed opened the w88 sports betting with a recitation of Gayatri Mantra, the most sacred mantra of Hinduism from the oldest existing scripture Rig-Veda.
"The purpose of the baccalaureate w88 sports betting was to root the graduating class in divine spiritual tradition so that they had a spiritually meaningful life in addition to material success," Zed said.
The graduating class was blessed in the traditional w88 sports betting style, complete with applying a religious mark, the tilak, on their foreheads. There was a participatory reading of Gayatri Mantra in Sanskrit, a keynote address by a Swami, a Mormon choir, a classical dance of India based on shlokas, traditional lamp-lighting and a blessing through a Cherubic Hymn. Renowned w88 sports betting monk Swami Vedananda blessed the graduates with wisdom from ancient w88 sports betting scriptures. Special certificates were issued to graduates with the parting advice "dharma chara," meaning "practice righteousness."
