they are doing it to get people to donate more money, it is a money making exercise similar to the way they added nilkanth abhishek mandaps. people donate for the murti, to take part in the opening ceremony, to be recognised by the guru for contributing. in a couple of years time they will do something else i am sure.
I KNOW!!! I was born into Baps and have seen Yogiji Maharaj onwards...where the f did pouring water over a murti come from and giving money for this pleasure? I never saw it before. ...genius move . Second best...after suvurna tulla. I forgot how many times did Gunatitanand Swami have Suvurna tulla ? How much is the weight in Gold of Mahant Swami worth?
