SUMMARY:Swami Turiyananda Tithi Puja
DESCRIPTION:Swami Turiyananda\nPre-Monastic Name: Harinath Chattopadhya\nPlace of Birth – North Kolkata\nDate of Birth – 3rd January 1863 \nSwami Turiyananda was born on 3rd January 1863 to Chandranath Chattopadhya an orthodox Brahmin who worked for a British firm in Kolkata\, and had the power to foretell the future. \nHe met Sri Ramakrishna for the first time some time in 1876-77\, at the age of 13 or 14 at Dinanath Basu’s house in Kolkata. \nAround 1880\, he went to Dakshineswar and visited the Master again\, and gradually became familiar with Sri Ramakrishna. \nIn January 1887\, he took final monastic vows with other brother disciples by performing the traditional viraja homa in front of the Master’s picture. \nA few years later\, he left the Baranagore Monastery and went to Rishikesh\, Gangotri\, and other places in the Himalayas\, and settled in Rajpur on the Mussoorie hills to practise Sadhana. He also travelled with his brother disciples to various places in the country. \nIn June 1899\, he left for England and America with Swami Vivekananda and Sister Nivedita. He gave lectures on Vedanta on Swamiji’s command. He was a living example of Vedanta to all. In July 1900\, on the train from New York to California\, just before Swamiji got off the train at Detroit\, he asked Swamiji about his future work\, and was told “Go and establish the ashrama in California. Hoist the flag of Vedanta there. From this moment\, destroy even the memory of India. Mother will do the rest”. He then established the “Shanti Ashrama” \nAt the ‘Shanti Ashrama’\, he freely distributed the greatest spiritual treasures of Vedanta to the American students. He lived a life and trained enabled others to live the life as well. \nIn late 1901\, due to ill health\, left for India in May 1902 (after a period of 2 years 9 months stay in the US). He handed the Ashrama to one of his disciples – Gurudas. His only desire at this time was to see Swamiji (Swami Vivekananda). During his voyage\, he learnt from a passenger’s newspaper that Swamiji had passed away\, and changed all plans for work. Now he wanted to immerse his life in meditation and austerity.\nThe then went to live at Vrindavan like a traditional monk. He travelled to many place\, and practised severe austerities neglecting his body completely\, and thus also suffering tremendous ill health. \nIn February 1919\, he went to Varanasi and lived there till the end of his life for 3½ years. He passed away at 6.45 pm on 21 July 1922\, at Varanasi. \nSwami Turiyananda was indeed an awakener of souls. His fiery words to his students were: “Clench your fists and say: I will conquer! Now or never – make this your motto\, even in this life I must see God. That is the only way. Never postpone.” \nThere will be a discourse on the Life of Swami Turiyananda by Swami Tannamananda on Friday\, 2nd January 2026 after Evening Arati at Universal Temple\, Ramakrishna Math\, Mumbai. \nThe discourse will also be streamed live on our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/rkmkhar/live

SUMMARY:Swami Saradananda Tithi Puja
DESCRIPTION:Swami Saradananda\n Premonastic name: Sharat Chandra Chakravarty\nDate of Birth: 23 December 1865\nPlace of Birth: Kolkata \n\n\n\n\n\nBorn in an affluent family\, Sharat was always calm and quiet and pious in his boyhood. He joined the medical college with the idea of becoming a doctor\, but discontinued his studies in order to serve Sri Ramakrishna. Along with his cousin Shashi (who stayed with Sharat’s family) he joined the Brahmo Samaj\, and in 1883 they went together to Dakshineswar. Sri Ramakrishna drew them to him like a powerful magnet. During the Master’s last illness Sharat also\, like Shashi\, dedicated himself to serving the Master day and night. \nAfter the Master’s passing\, Sharat joined the Baranagar monastery and took the vows of sannyasa assuming the name Swami Saradananda. After spending a few years in pilgrimage and tapasya along with his brother monks\, he returned to Baranagar Math in 1891. When Swami Vivekananda started extensive preaching work in the West\, and felt the need for another brother monk to assist him\, Swami Saradananda was brought to the United States in 1896. His calm and gentle disposition\, courteous and loving manners and able exposition of Vedanta won him many friends and admirers in America. \n\n\n\n\n\nBut Swami Vivekananda\, who founded the Ramakrishna Mission soon after his return to India in 1897\, saw that a highly capable person like Saradananda was necessary to manage the affairs of the Math and the Mission. So Saradananda was called back to Kolkata and made the General Secretary of Ramakrishna Math and the Mission\, a post which he held for nearly three decades till the end of his life. By his mature wisdom\, clear thinking\, the strength of mind and devotion to Sri Ramakrishna and Holy Mother\, he guided the course of the twin organizations in those formative years when political agitation against the British rule was gaining momentum in India.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nApart from his important work as General Secretary\, Swami Saradananda is remembered for several other types of great service that he rendered. The first one was his taking over the Udbodhan\, the Bengali journal of Ramakrishna Math and Mission\, as its editor and publisher in 1902 when Swami Trigunatitananda left for America. The second one was taking upon himself the full responsibility of looking after the needs of the Holy Mother whether she stayed in Jayrambati or Kolkata. His third work was writing the monumental biography of Sri Ramakrishna known as Sri Ramakrishna Lila Prasanga in Bengali (translated later into English under the title Sri Ramakrishna the Great Master). His last great work was the construction of the temple dedicated to Holy Mother in 1921 on the spot where her sacred body was cremated in Belur Math\, and another temple at Mother’s birthplace in Jayrambati in 1923. \nHe was loved and respected by hundreds of people. He was a great support\, especially to women. In the first week of August 1927 he suffered a stroke. Two weeks later on 19 August 1927\, he breathed his last. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSource: https://belurmath.org/swami-saradananda/ \n\nThere will be a discourse on Life of Swami Saradananda by Swami Jyotiratmananda on Friday\, 26th December 2025 after Evening Arati at Universal Temple\, Ramakrishna Math\, Mumbai. \nThe discourse will also be streamed live on our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/rkmkhar/live

SUMMARY:Swami Shivananda Tithi Puja
DESCRIPTION:SWAMI SHIVANANDA\nPre-monastic name: Taraknath Ghoshal\nDate of Birth: 16 December 1854\nPlace of Birth: Barasat\, east of Kolkata \nSpecial Puja and Homa will be performed on the occasion of 171st Birthday (Tithi Puja) of Swami Shivananda on Monday\, 15th December 2025 from 7.00 am onwards. There will be also a discourse on the Life of Swami Shivananda by Swami Divyeshananda after Evening Arati at Universal Temple\, Ramakrishna Math\, Mumbai.\nPROGRAMME DETAILS \n \nSWAMI SHIVANANDA\nIn accordance with the custom of those days\, Tarak was married in his teens but\, with the consent of his young wife\, he lived an absolutely chaste life. Years later\, when Swami Vivekananda came to know of this\, he called him ‘Mahapurush’ which meant ‘great soul’\, and since then he came to be known as ‘Mahapurush Maharaj’. \nAfter completing school final\, Tarak took up a job in order to help his father. But he used to practice spiritual disciplines. He saw Sri Ramakrishna for the first time at the house of Ramachandra Datta in May 1880. A few days later he went to Dakshineswar and surrendered himself fully to Sri Ramakrishna. From then on he began to practice intense prayer and meditation under the Master’s guidance. Three years later his wife died; Tarak renounced hearth and home and started living sometimes in a devotee’s house and sometimes in lonely places. \nAfter the Master’s mahasamadhi\, when Baranagar Math was started\, Tarak was one of the first to join the brotherhood. With sannyasa ordination\, he received the name Shivananda. He\, however\, spent several years leading an intensely contemplative life at different places in north India\, and returned to Math in 1896. \nWhen Swami Vivekananda founded the Ramakrishna Mission in 1897\, he sent Swami Shivananda to Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) to spread Vedanta there. A year later Swami Shivananda returned to Math. In 1902\, just before Swami Vivekananda’s mahasamadhi\, he went to Varanasi to start the Advaita Ashrama thereof which he remained the head for seven years. In 1910 he was elected Vice-President of Ramakrishna Mission. In 1922\, after the passing of Swami Brahmananda\, he became the second President of Ramakrishna Math and Mission. He travelled to different places blessing sincere seekers with spiritual initiation. Like Swami Brahmananda\, he stressed meditation along with work. He gave great importance to prayer as a form of Sadhana. He was full of love and compassion\, and sincere seekers flocked to him. \nIn April 1933 he suffered a stroke and developed paralysis of one side. On 20 February 1934\, a few days after Sri Ramakrishna’s birthday\, Mahapurush Maharaj left the body for the heavenly abode. His memory is kept alive at Belur Math in the small room adjacent to the Old Shrine. \nsource: https://belurmath.org/swami-shivananda/

SUMMARY:Swami Premananda Tithi Puja
DESCRIPTION:SWAMI PREMANANDA\nPre-monastic name : Baburam Ghosh\nDate of Birth : 10 December 1861\nPlace of Birth : Antpur\, a village 30 miles from Kolkata. \n\n\n\n\n\nBaburam first heard about Sri Ramakrishna from the great devotee Balaram Bose to whom his elder sister was married. While studying at the Metropolitan Institution\, Rakhal (later known as Swami Brahmananda) was his classmate. One day Rakhal took Baburam to Dakshineswar. Sri Ramakrishna recognized Baburam to be an extraordinarily pure soul (“pure to the marrow of his bones”)\, an ishvarakoti. Soon Baburam lost interest in his studies and came to live with Sri Ramakrishna as his attendant. During the Master’s last illness at Cossipore\, Baburam was one among those who nursed him round the clock. After the Master’s passing\, when the new Monastic brotherhood was formed at Baranagar\, Baburam joined it. \n\n\n\n\n\nHe underwent sannyasa ordination and assumed the name Premananda. Except for short pilgrimages\, he spent his days mainly at the monastery when it was in Baranagar and also when it was shifted to Alambazar. When Belur Math was established\, Swami Premananda took charge of worship in the shrine. Later he became the Manager of the Math. The pure unconditional love that he radiated exerted tremendous influence on those who came into contact with him\, and hundreds of devotees flocked to see him. He had a motherly interest in feeding people\, but he also inspired them with his spiritual exhortations which flowed out from the depths of his heart. Towards the end of his life\, he went on a tour of East Bengal. There his radiant personality and inspired talks created great enthusiasm\, particularly among the youth. On his return\, he fell seriously ill and passed away at Balaram Babu’s house on 30 July 1918.\n\n\nSource: https://belurmath.org/swami-premananda/ \n\nThere will be a discourse on Life of Swami Premananda by Swami Jyotiratmananda after Evening Arati at Universal Temple\, Ramakrishna Math\, Mumbai. \nThe discourse will also be streamed live on our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/rkmkhar/live

SUMMARY:Swami Vijnanananda Tithi Puja
DESCRIPTION:SWAMI VIJNANANANDA\nPre-monastic name : Hari Prasanna Chatterjee\nDate of Birth : 30 October 1868\nPlace of Birth : Etawah in Uttar Pradesh \n\n\n\n\n\nHari Prasanna had the good fortune to see Sri Ramakrishna when he was a small boy. He met the Master when he was studying at St. Xavier’s College where Sharat (later\, Swami Saradananda) was his classmate. During the first meeting\, Sharat was with him. Later he visited the Master alone several times. Sri Ramakrishna gave him important instructions regarding spiritual life and blessed him in several ways. \nAfter completing his studies in Kolkata\, Hari Prasanna went to Bankimpur in Bihar and entered Patna College to study for BA degree. There he learned about the passing away of Sri Ramakrishna and also saw him in a vision. After graduation\, he went to Poona College of Science to study Civil Engineering. After receiving his engineering degree in 1892 he got the job of district engineer at Gazipur. However\, the fire of renunciation which Sri Ramakrishna had lighted in him\, was burning\, and he finally renounced the world in 1896 and joined the Alambazar Math where the disciples of Sri Ramakrishna were staying. \n\n\n\n\n\nWhen the Belur Math property was purchased\, Hari Prasanna’s knowledge of engineering proved to be a great asset. His first task was to remodel the existing building and build new ones including the shrine. The consecration of the new premises took place on 9 December 1898. Another major work he executed at Belur Math was the construction of a strong embankment on the bank of the Ganga in front of the main building. Another most important work that he undertook was the preparation of a plan for a new temple of Sri Ramakrishna based on the ideas given by Swami Vivekananda and supervising its construction. On 9 May 1899 Hari Prasanna formally took sannyasa and assumed the name Vijnanananda.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSwami Vivekananda asked Vijnanananda to start a new centre in Allahabad and\, accordingly\, Vijnanananda left Belur Math in 1900. In Allahabad he lived a more or less secluded life\, immersed in sadhana\, reading and writing. He also went on pilgrimage to many places. On the demise of Swami Akhandananda\, the third President of Ramakrishna Math and Mission\, Swami Vijnanananda became the next President in March 1937. As President of the Order\, Vijnanananda was full of love and compassion and initiated many people into spiritual life. On 14 January 1938\, Swami Vijnanananda performed the dedication of the new temple of Sri Ramakrishna at Belur Math. He spent his last days in Allahabad and entered mahasamadhi on 25 April 1938. \n\n\n\n\n\nSource: https://belurmath.org/swami-vijnanananda/ \n  \n  \nThere will be a discourse on the life & teachings of Swami Vijnananandaji Maharaj by Swami Devaswarupananda after evening arati. The discourse will be streamed live on our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/rkmkhar/live

SUMMARY:Swami Subodhananda Jayanti
DESCRIPTION:SWAMI SUBODHANANDA \nPre-monastic name : Subodh Chandra Ghosh endearingly called ‘Khoka Maharaj’ \nDate of Birth : 8 November 1867. \nPlace of Birth : Kolkata \nBorn in an affluent family\, Subodh was spiritually inclined from boyhood. While studying in class eight he heard about Sri Ramakrishna from his father who was a follower of Brahmo Samaj. One day in 1884 Subodh walked all the way to Dakshineswar in the company of a friend. Sri Ramakrishna received them with great love. After that Subodh went to the Master several times. Owing to the opposition of his parents\, he could not stay with Sri Ramakrishna or serve him during his last illness. But the Master understood his difficulty and made him his own through his boundless love. \nHe joined the Baranagar Math and was ordained a sannyasin bearing the name Subodhananda. Since he was only nineteen and the youngest of the group\, he was endearingly called ‘Khoka’ (which means ‘child’) by Swamiji and other monastic brothers. He spent several years travelling in different parts of India performing tapasya. After Swami Vivekananda’s return from the West when Belur Math monastery was established\, he felt himself quite at home there. He visited East Bengal (now Bangladesh) twice and inspired many people with his talks and loving conduct. All through his life he combined in himself the simplicity of a child and the wisdom of an illumined soul. He passed away in Belur Math on 2 December 1932.\nSource: https://belurmath.org/swami-subodhananda/ \nThere will be a discourse on the life & teachings of Swami Subodhanandaji Maharaj after evening arati by Swami Tannamananda.

SUMMARY:Swami Akhandananda Tithi Puja
DESCRIPTION:SWAMI AKHANDANANDA\nPre-monastic name : Gangadhar Gangopadhyay\nDate of Birth : 30 September 1864\nPlace of Birth : Kolkata \n\n\nBorn in an orthodox family Gangadhar lived a pure\, disciplined life from boyhood. At the age of nineteen he went to Dakshineswar Kali temple. Sri Ramakrishna received him cordially and gave him several instructions. Since then he started visiting the Master and also cultivated friendship with the other young disciples\, particularly with Naren (later\, Swami Vivekananda). \nWhen the Baranagar Math was formed after Sri Ramakrishna’s mahasamadhi\, Gangadhar did not join it immediately. Instead\, he set out on a long pilgrimage in 1886 which took him to different places in the Himalayas and Tibet. After three and a half years\, he returned to Baranagar monastery in June 1890. He then took sannyasa vows formally and assumed the name Akhandananda. \n\n\nIn mid-July 1890 Swami Akhandananda again set out\, this time in the company of Swami Vivekananda\, on a pilgrimage which took them to different places in the Himalayas. When Swamiji left for the West\, Akhandananda continued his wanderings in western India. Towards the end of 1895 he returned to the Math which had been shifted to Alambazar in Kolkata. When Swami Vivekananda\, after his return from the West\, reached Kolkata in February 1897\, Swami Akhandananda enthusiastically participated in the reception accorded to Swamiji.\n\n\n\nAfter a few days\, when Swamiji left for Darjeeling\, Akhandananda travelled towards Murshidabad. Reaching there he was distressed to find a famine raging. He immediately started famine relief work with whatever he could collect. Later Swami Vivekananda sent more funds and the relief operation was organized on a full scale. This was the first relief operation organized by Ramakrishna Mission. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter relief work Akhandananda started an ashrama with an orphanage in Sargachhi\, in the Murshidabad district. He served the orphan boys as manifestations of God. \nIn 1934\, after the passing away of Swami Shivananda\, Swami Akhandananda became the President of Ramakrishna Math and Mission. From that time he divided his time between Belur Math and Sargachhi. He participated in the celebration of the Birth Centenary of Sri Ramakrishna in 1936. Owing to old-age ailments he became weak. He passed away on 7 February 1937. \n\n\n\n\n\nSource: https://belurmath.org/swami-akhandananda/ \nThere will be a discourse on the life & teachings of Swami Akhandanandaji Maharaj after evening arati by Swami Devakantyananda.

SUMMARY:Swami Abhedananda Tithi Puja
DESCRIPTION:SWAMI ABHEDANANDA\n Pre-monastic name : Kali Prasad Chandra\n Date of Birth : 2 October 1866\n Place of Birth : North Kolkata \n\n\n\n\n\nBorn in a fairly well-to-do family\, Kali had a great eagerness to learn yoga from his boyhood. He gained a good grounding in Sanskrit and English. At the age of 18\, when he was studying for the school final examination\, he went to Dakshineswar and met Sri Ramakrishna. Under the guidance of the Master\, Kali practised meditation and was soon blessed with several visions. \n\n\n\n\n\nKali became a frequent visitor to Dakshineswar. He served the Master during his last illness. After the Master’s passing away\, he joined the Baranagar Math and underwent sannyasa ordination\, assuming the name Swami Abhedananda. At the Baranagar Math he used to shut himself up in a room and do intense meditation or study. This earned him the sobriquet “Kali Tapasvi”. He spent several years visiting places of pilgrimage on foot.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn 1896 Swami Vivekananda brought him to London for Vedanta work there. The next year he crossed over to USA and was given charge of the newly founded New York Vedanta centre. His profundity of scholarship\, incisive intellect and oratorical power elicited widespread admiration\, and people thronged to listen to him. He was also a prolific writer and his books on life after death\, etc are famous. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter his long and successful work in America Swami Abhedananda returned to India in 1923. Soon he established a separate organization named Ramakrishna Vedanta Math and started living at the new centre. However\, he maintained cordial relationship with his brother monks at Belur Math which he visited occasionally. He presided over the Parliament of Religions at the Town Hal\, Kolkata\, as a part of the celebration of the Birth Centenary of Sri Ramakrishna.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHe left the mortal frame on 8 September 1939. Of all the contributions that Swami Abhedananda made to Ramakrishna Movement\, the most widely appreciated and enduring one is his composition of sublime and beautiful hymns (in Sanskrit) on Sri Ramakrishna and Sri Sarada Devi. His hymn to Holy Mother beginning with Prakritim paramam abhayam varadam\, which is sung in many ashramas and homes\, is unrivalled in the depth of conception and felicity of expression. \n\n\n\n\n\nsource: https://belurmath.org/swami-abhedananda/ \nThere will be a discourse on the life & teachings of Swami Abhedanandaji Maharaj after evening arati by Swami Kalyanatmananda. The discourse will be streamed live on our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/rkmkhar/live
