"सोमनाथ से वडोदरा जाते समय यह तस्वीर खींची है…

प्रभास पाटन के तट पर सोमनाथ मंदिर श्रद्धा, भक्ति और भारत की सनातन संस्कृति का दिव्य प्रतीक बनकर आज भी अडिग खड़ा है। इस पावन मंदिर ने बर्बर आक्रमणों, विदेशी हमलों और सदियों के चुनौतीपूर्ण कालखंड को पार करते हुए अपनी अमर चेतना को अक्षुण्ण रखा है। सोमनाथ हर भारतीय के लिए शक्ति, साहस और उम्मीद का प्रतीक है।

हर हर महादेव!"
