SUMMARY:Swami Brahmananda Tithi Puja
DESCRIPTION:Pre-monastic name :\nRakhal Chandra Ghosh\nDate of Birth : 21 January 1863\nPlace of Birth : Sikra Kulingram\n \nRakhal was devoted to God and used to practise meditation even in boyhood. At the age of 12 he was brought to Kolkata for his studies. There he met Narendra (later known as Swami Vivekananda) and\, under his influence\, joined the Brahmo Samaj. According to the custom prevalent in those days\, he was married at the age of 18 to Vishweshwari. Soon after marriage Vishweshwari’s brother Manomohan Mitra\, who was a close devotee of Sri Ramakrishna\, took Rakhal to the Master. Prior to that Sri Ramakrishna had had a vision in which he saw the Divine Mother showing him a child who would be his son. As soon as Rakhal came to Dakshineswar\, Sri Ramakrishna recognized him to be that child and treated him like a son. \nAfter a few visits\, Rakhal came to Dakshineswar to live permanently with Sri Ramakrishna. Under the Master’s guidance\, he practised intense spiritual disciplines\, and attained high levels of spiritual illumination. After the Master’s mahasamadhi in 1886 when the new Monastic brotherhood was formed at Baranagar\, Rakhal joined it. He underwent sannyasa ordination and assumed the name Brahmananda. \nTwo years later he left Baranagar Math and lived an intensely contemplative life at Varanasi\, Omkarnath\, Vrindaban\, Hardwar and other places. During this period he scaled the highest peak of non-dualistic experience and used to remain absorbed in Samadhi for days together. In 1890 he returned to the Math. When Swami Vivekananda\, after his return to India in 1897\, wanted to give a new turn to monastic life\, Swami Brahmananda whole-heartedly supported him. There was deep love between these two monastic brothers. After establishing Belur Math monastery when Swami Vivekananda got Ramakrishna Math registered as a Trust\, Swami Brahmananda became its President. He held this post till the end of his life. \nDuring his tenure as President\, the Ramakrishna Order underwent great expansion\, and several new branch centres were opened in India and abroad. The Ramakrishna Mission\, which had been founded by Swami Vivekananda as an Association\, was revived and registered during his time. His stress on contemplative life served to counterbalance the activities undertaken by the monks. During those difficult formative years he gave great stability to the Sangha. For his kingly qualities of administration\, Swami Vivekananda gave him the appellation ‘Raja’\, and since then he was respectfully referred to as ‘Raja Maharaj’ by all. He was one of the six disciples of Sri Ramakrishna whom the Master regarded as ishvarakotis. \nHe gave up his body\, after a brief illness\, on 10 April 1922. At the place where his body was cremated in Belur Math\, a temple now stands in his memory. \nThere will be a discourse on the Life of Swami Brahmananda ji Maharaj by Swami Devakantyananda on Wednesday\, 2nd February 2022 after Evening Arati at Universal Temple\, Ramakrishna Math\, Mumbai. \nThe discourse will be streamed live on our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/rkmkhar/live

SUMMARY:Swami Trigunatitananda Tithi Puja
DESCRIPTION:Pre-monastic name : Sarada Prasanna Mitra\nDate of Birth : 30 January 1865\nPlace of Birth : Naora\, a village in 24-Parganas\, W.B. \nBorn in an aristocratic family\, Sarada studied in the school of which Mahendranath Gupta (popularly known as M.) was the headmaster. After Sarada passed the school final examination\, M. one day took him to Sri Ramakrishna. Owing to his parents’ opposition Sarada could not visit the Master frequently. \nWhen the Baranagar Math was established\, Sarada joined it and underwent sannyasa ordination assuming the name\, Swami Trigunatitananda. He spent a few years visiting the holy places and doing tapasya. He was endowed with strong physique and indomitable courage. In 1896\, at the behest of Swami Vivekananda\, he bought a press and started the monthly journal Udbodhan in a rented room. This is the first journal of the Ramakrishna Order and is the oldest surviving religious journal of its kind in India. After Swami Yogananda’s passing away\, he served the Holy Mother for three years until he left for America. \nAt the behest of Swami Vivekananda he went to America in 1902 and took charge of the San Francisco centre. His holy life\, selfless love and unmistakable marks of spirituality attracted a large number of students and disciples. He was\, however\, a strict disciplinarian. One of his main achievements in San Francisco was the construction of a new building for the centre. Incorporating certain unique architectural features\, this building\, known as ‘Hindu Temple’\, still stands as a monument to the eternal truths of Vedanta and the immortal spirit of man. \nOne day when he was conducting a spiritual discourse\, a former student of his who had become mentally deranged\, threw a crude bomb at him\, killing himself and seriously wounding Swami Trigunatitananda. The Swami remained calm and enquired about the student. However\, he finally succumbed to the injuries on 10 January 1915. \nsource: http://www.belurmath.org/trigunatitananda.htm \nThere will be a discourse on the life & teachings of Swami Trigunatitanandaji Maharaj after evening arati by Swami Kshitishananda. The discourse will be streamed live on our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/rkmkhar/live

SUMMARY:Swami Adbhutananda Tithi Puja
DESCRIPTION:Pre-monastic name : Rakhturam\, usually called Latu\nPlace of Birth : Chhapra in Bihar \nSpeaking about Latu Maharaj\, Swami Vivekananda once said\, “Latu is Sri Ramakrishna’s greatest miracle. Having absolutely no education\, he has attained the highest wisdom simply by virtue of the Master’s touch”. Latu was the only disciple of Sri Ramakrishna who could not even read or write. He was born of very poor parents in a village in Bihar. He lost his parents in early boyhood. Poverty forced his uncle to take him to Kolkata where Latu was employed as a houseboy in the house of Ramachandra Datta\, a close devotee of Sri Ramakrishna. The Master recognized the dormant spiritual potential in the boy and asked Ram to allow Latu to stay at Dakshineswar as an attendant. Under the guidance of the Master Latu practised intense sadhana\, spending whole nights in meditation\, a habit which he followed all through his life. \nAfter Sri Ramakrishna’s passing\, Latu joined Baranagar Math\, and was ordained a sannyasin bearing the name Adbhutananda. He\, however\, spent most of his time in contemplation on the bank of the Ganga or in a room in Balaram Babu’s house. \nSwami Vivekananda established Ramakrishna Mission on 1897 and Belur Math in 1898. Latu Maharaj with his deep absorption in contemplative life could neither take up the service activities of the Mission nor follow the discipline and routine of the monastery. So Swami Vivekananda permitted him to follow his own way of life. After some years Adbhutananda moved to Varanasi where he lived alone\, but his needs were taken care of by the Ramakrishna Home of Service. At the end of a brief ailment\, he passed away in a meditative state on 24 April 1920. \n  \nsource: http://www.belurmath.org/adbhutananda.htm \nThere will be a discourse on the life & teachings of Swami Adbhutanandaji Maharaj after evening arati by Swami Kalyanatmananda. The discourse will be streamed live on our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/rkmkhar/live
