Sailesh Hiranandani, a London-based businessman who got acquainted with Cambodia in the course of his business, realized that the culture of Cambodia is a mini India. The land on which Brahma, Vishnu, Shankar himself resides is no less than a place for Sanatanis. Impressed by Lord Vishnu's Angkor Wat, he imagined a huge temple of Lord Shiva. Later on, this Mahatma Buddha land was called as Pancham Dham by the people.
This holy land of Mahatma Buddha was certainly discovered by Sailesh Hiranandani as a heritage of Indian culture and eternal civilization, but this discovery was made accessible to the masses, and it was he who made India's most social and religious works successful. Today this face has become synonymous with India's identity. This pioneer of India Mr. Indresh Kumar gave this campaign the shape of organization and set a system of works.
At present, Pancham Dham is a thought, our travels in Cambodia and countries of South East Asia are engaged in collecting scattered Sanatani relics. History will always give a place in golden letters to the great man of spirituality Indresh Kumar. History will remember Sailesh Hiranandani, who have been working tirelessly for the last 18 years with this vision in their heart, for starting research on it.
India's culture is that of a Hindu nation, it cannot breathe without Sanatan. Sanatan is such a compassionate Mother, from whom infinite streams come out in different forms, today the world society is alive. Sanatan respects every sect and society, their method of worship and faith. Pancham Dham wants to honour this thinking, it will create a new world by imbibing the messages of our beloved Mahatma Buddha and Saint Mahavir and Guru Nanak, wrapped in Indian culture. Wants to create, which the world can restore as a spiritual world guru with one voice and one opinion. To convert this vision into commitment, representatives of about 10 countries had gathered in Cambodia for the sixth visit.
Cambodia has been made the center of ongoing work in five countries of South East Asia. The work of promoting the heritage of Sanatan going on in Indonesia, Vietnam, Laos, and Thailand is included in the priority of Pancham Dham. Shailesh Vats, as General Secretary, has been doing the work of propagation of this Sanatani heritage and providing feedback of development to the government and the organization as per the need. The External Affairs Minister of India, on behalf of her Ministry, has talked to UNESCO about giving importance to the Sahastra Shivling in the middle of the Kulain hills. As such It is believed that in the coming time, this area will be developed as a religious city, which will be a holy place for foreigners and especially Sanatanis.
The foundation stone for a meditation center was laid in the 2022 Yatra. Apart from this, religious pilgrims met Buddhist monks and discussed many topics. Consent was given by the Chief Monk of Cambodia to establish a university for the exchange of education. Trust is considering it.
The devotees of Pancham Dham travel to Char Dham Badrinath, Dwarka, Jagannath Puri and Rameswaram and collect soil, water and clothes for the fifth Dham. This journey of 2019 was led by Pancham Dham Trustee Shailesh Vats and Guru Kumaranaswamy, founder associate of Dham Nirman. Local people and Governor of the state supported to delegations in different Dham places.
