1882 ke antim dinoan mean ve pahali bar aryasamaj lahaur ke varshik utsav mean sammilit hue. is marmik prasang ka varnan svayan lala ji ne apani atmakatha mean is prakar kiya hai- "us din svargiy lala madanasianh bi. e.[1] ka vyakhyan tha. unako mujhase bahut prem tha. unhoanne vyakhyan dene se pahale samaj mandir ki chhat par mujhe apana likha vyakhyan sunaya aur meri sammati poochhi. maianne us vyakhyan ko bahut pasand kiya. jab maian chhat se niche utara to lala saaneedas ji[2] ne mujhe pak d liya aur alag le jakar kahane lage ki hamane bahut samay tak intajar kiya hai ki tum hamare sath mil jao. maian us gh di ko bhool nahian sakata. vah mere se batean karate the, mere muanh ki or dekhate the tatha meri pith par pyar se hath pherate the. maianne unako javab diya ki maian to unake sath hooan. mera itana kahana tha ki unhoanne phauran samaj ke sabhasad banane ka prarthana-patr mangavaya aur mere samane rakh diya. maian do-char minat tak sochata raha, parantu unhoanne kaha ki maian tumhare hastakshar lie bina tumhean jane n dooanga. maianne phauran hastakshar kar diye. us samay unake chehare par prasannata ki jo jhalak thi usaka varnan maian nahi kar sakata. aisa maloom hota tha ki unako hindustan ki badashahat mil gee hai. unhoanne ekadam pan. gurudatt ko bulaya aur sara hal sunakar mujhe unake havale kar diya. vah bhi bahut khush hue. lala madan sianh ke vyakhyan ki samapti par lala saaneedas ne mujhe aur pan. gurudatt ko manch par kh da kiya. ham donoan se vyakhyan dilavaye. log bahut khush hue aur khoob taliyaan bajaee. in taliyoan ne mere dil par jadoo ka-sa asar kiya. maian prasannata aur saphalata ki masti mean jhoomata hua apane ghar ko lauta."[3]
yah hai lala ji ke aryasamaj mean pravesh ki katha. lala saaneedas aryasamaj ke prati itane adhik samarpit the ki ve honahar navayuvakoan ko is sanstha mean pravisht karane ke lie sada tatpar rahate the. svami shraddhanand[4] ko aryasamaj mean lane ka shrey bhi unhean hi hai. 30 aktoobar, 1883 ko jab ajamer mean rrishi dayanand ka dehant ho gaya to 9 navambar, 1883 ko lahaur aryasamaj ki or se ek shokasabha ka ayojan kiya gaya. is sabha ke ant mean yah nishchay hua ki svami ji ki smriti mean ek aise mahavidyalay ki sthapana ki jaye, jisamean vaidik sahity, sanskrit tatha hindi ki uchch shiksha ke sath-sath aangreji aur pashchaty jnan-vijnan mean bhi chhatroan ko dakshata prapt karaee jaye. 1886 mean jab is shikshan sanstha ki sthapana huee to aryasamaj ke any netaoan ke sath lala lajapataray ka bhi isake sanchalan mean mahattvapoorn yogadan raha tatha ve kalantar mean di. e. vi. k aaulej, lahaur ke mahan stambh bane.
