Annual Sadhana Program
(Bhakti Dham Mangarh)
Mangarh village in Pratapgarh district
of Uttar Pradesh, India, is the appearance place of Jagadguru
Shree Kripaluji Maharaj. Sadhana program is for one month.
It starts from Dashahra
which falls in October. A few days after
Dashahra,
Sharat Poornima
comes. It is the most auspicious day for the devotee of Radha
Krishn because, on that particular night (about 5,000 years
ago), the maharas leela had happened. On that same night
Shree Maharajji has appeared. Every October thousands of devotees
travel from throughout India and around the world to Mangarh
to participate in the excelling birthday celebrations of Shree
Maharajji and the annual sadhana program. This devotional
intensive is an exceptional opportunity to experience higher
states of Radha Krishn love. During these precious weeks Shree
Maharajji constantly Graces the souls with his Divine association,
his unparalleled knowledge and his Divinely dynamic chantings
of the names of Radha Krishn. Fortunate devotees who have attended
these sadhana programs feel the enhanced closeness of
Their Beloved Radha Krishn and an increased longing for Their
Divine vision and love.
Throughout the sadhana program
ecstatic chanting programs are scheduled in the satsang
hall from morning to evening and Shree Maharajji tells the
leelas of Radha Krishn and expounds the deepest devotional
theory and practical aspects of devotion through his Divine
discourses. Devotees also have the golden chance to do seva
(devotional service) in the ashram during the sadhana
program.
Magnificent celebrations are organized for
the auspicious occasions of
Sharat Poornima,
Divali and
Govardhan Puja.
On these festival days huge crowds of thousands of devotees
dance and chant, drowned in the love of Shyama Shyam and Shree
Maharajji. Generous donations of clothing, utensils and blankets
are distributed to the needy villagers with the Blessings of
Shree Maharajji, who is renowned for his kindness and compassion.
Attending the sadhana program in Mangarh
is a priceless Divine gift. It is an opportunity to fully immerse
oneself in continuous devotion and service. Having Shree Maharajji’s satsang for an extended period of time elevates the consciousness
of the devotees and establishes their mind in Radha Krishn love.
The Mangarh sadhana program leaves an indelible imprint
of love and devotion in the heart of the sincere devotees. |
