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 Jyotiratmananda on Thursday\, 5th January 2023 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 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 Monday\, 23rd January 2023 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
