Ravindra Jung Lamichhane, the London-based founder of acclaimed fashion brand Gini London, has performed a deeply spiritual act of devotion by offering a Jaladhari (sacred water vessel) at the revered Pashupatinath Temple.
This offering was made in the pious memory of his late parents, Shree Chandra Jung Lamichhane and Shrimati Rukavina Lamichhane.
The ceremony, facilitated through the Shri Pashupatinath Temple Shanidham, Birmingham, reflects Lamichhane’s profound reverence for his cultural heritage and familial bonds.
In an official statement, the Temple Foundation expressed its heartfelt appreciation:
“On behalf of Shri Pashupatinath Temple Shanidham, Birmingham, we extend our deepest gratitude to London-based entrepreneur Mr. Ravindra Jung Lamichhane. His offering of the Jaladhari at the feet of Lord Pashupatinath was performed with the sacred intention of seeking Sivasayujya (eternal union with Lord Shiva) for his beloved parents. We pray Lord Pashupatinath bestows enduring happiness, peace, and prosperity upon the Lamichhane family. May divine blessings always remain with them.”
While Lamichhane is widely recognized for building Gini London into a prominent international fashion label, his profound commitment to philanthropy has created an equally impactful legacy. For over two decades, he has championed humanitarian causes across the UK and Nepal, demonstrating remarkable leadership during crises.
For example, during the 2015 Nepal earthquake, he mobilized critical aid and resources for relief and rebuilding efforts. Likewise, during the COVID-19 pandemic, supported vulnerable communities in both nations through essential supplies and healthcare initiatives.
Focused on long-term change through his foundation, prioritizing the education and economic empowerment of underprivileged children in Nepal. His initiatives provide scholarships, educational infrastructure, and financial stability to break the cycle of poverty.
This sacred offering at Pashupatinath underscores the core values driving Lamichhane’s life: deep-rooted faith, enduring familial love, and an unwavering dedication to societal upliftment.
It stands as a poignant tribute to his parents’ memory while symbolizing the spiritual foundation that underpins his entrepreneurial success and extensive humanitarian work. The Lamichhane family remains deeply grateful for the Temple’s blessings as they continue their journey guided by service and devotion.
