During this festival celebrating faith and devotion, a special ritual of 'Shiladaan Mahayagya' is being performed especially for the construction of Shri Kalki Dham, in which all the devotees worship a rock in their name or that of their ancestors with proper rituals and call it 'Shri Kalki Dham'.

"You can get the good fortune of installing it in the sanctum sanctorum of the temple. Also, all the names inscribed on the sacred stones will remain immortal and indelible in the history of Sanatan Dharma for centuries."

The letter states: You are welcome to the huge religious, spiritual, social, and cultural event of 'Shri Kalki Mahotsav'. Your dignified presence will add more grandeur to this great festival."
