Bhajan, Kirtan, Blessings by
Mahant Shri Swami Vishveshwarananda Saraswati, President Omkarananda Ashram Himalayas, and Sadhu Bhandara,
in Honour of Shri Paramahamsa Omkarananda Saraswati,
at Omkarananda-Kamakshi-Devi Mandir,
on 29th December 2021

A Devotee felt inspired to dance to the beautiful tunes of Bhajans, performed in the Mandapa of the Omkarananda-Kamakshi-Devi Mandir.

Since Omkarananda Ashram Himalayas is a Sannyasa Ashram, it is only natural, that Sannyasis and Sadhus are given special importance on great Festivals like Omkarananda Mahotsava. There was pin-drop silence among the holy men, when Mahant Shri Swami Vishveshwarananda Saraswati, President Omkarananda Ashram Himalayas, addressed them. Swamiji's speech was translated on the spot by Kumari Somashekhari.

Mahant Shri Swami Vishveshwarananda Saraswati expressed his heartfelt and deep Adorations and Reverence to the Assembly of Saints. He emphasized, how great and rare a life of Sannyasa, a life of true Renunciation, is. The life of a Sannyasi is the most blessed life. It is a great Joy and Blessing to be in the company of Saints, and all real Sannyasis are God-like and worthy to be worshipped, Swamiji said. Swami Vishveshwaranandaji again and again emphasized, that a life, which is not intensively used for making spiritual progress in order to attain Spiritual Liberation, final Liberation from the vicious cycle of birth and death, is simply in vain and wasted. All the Saints and Sadhus very much liked and appreciated Swami Vishveshwaranandaji's divine words. Kumari Somashekhari exactly translated each of Swamiji's precious words into Hindi.

During the special Bhandara, arranged for all Sadhus near the Omkarananda-Kamakshi-Devi Mandir, Shri Swami Satchidananda Saraswati, Treasurer Omkarananda Ashram Himalayas, distributed Dakshina and warm blankets.

After Satsang and Sadhu Bhandara in Honour of Paramahamsa Omkarananda Saraswati, the Sadhus proceeded happily and satisfied to their respective places.
