Bhajan, Kirtan, Blessings by
Mahant Shri Swami Vishveshwarananda Saraswati, President,
Omkarananda Ashram Himalayas, and Sadhu Bhandara, in Honour of Sadgurudev Shri Paramahamsa Omkarananda Saraswati,
at Omkarananda-Kamakshi-Devi Mandir, on 29th December 2024

In the beautiful Omkarananda-Kamakshi-Devi Mandir, from left to right: Guru-Bhakti-Ratna Kumari Somashekhari, General Secretary, Omkarananda Ashram Himalayas, and Indian Classical Dancer and Singer, and H.H. Mahant Shri Swami Vishveshwarananda Saraswati, President, Omkarananda Ashram Himalayas, are listening to the Mantra Recitations, Bhajans and speeches by three important Maha-Mandaleshwaras from different Ashrams in the area of Rishikesh. All the three Maha-Mandaleshwaras were full of praise for Shri Paramahamsa Omkarananda Saraswati and Shri Swami Vishveshwarananda for their noble works in Education and Spirituality in the Garhwal Himalayas.

H.H. Mahant Shri Swami Vishveshwarananda Saraswati, President, Omkarananda Ashram Himalayas, and appointed Successor of His Divinity Shri Paramahamsa Omkarananda Saraswati, addressed the Sadhus. He said, that the ascetic lives of the real Sadhus, who have renounced all worldly pleasures and attachments, are extremely praiseworthy. Their mere presence is a Blessing for the world. Swami Ji further told, that it is a very joyful experience and of great spiritual benefit, to be in the company of such Saints. Guru-Bhakti-Ratna Kumari Somashekhari translated Swami Vishveshwarananda Ji's noble words into Hindi.

All the Sadhus had been invited for Bhandara, a tasty and hygienic Prasadam, in form of lunch, taking place very near to the Omkarananda-Kamakshi-Devi Mandir.

Shri Swami Satchidananda Saraswati, Treasurer, Omkarananda Ashram Himalayas, presented Dakshina to all the Sadhus.

Omkarananda Ashram Priests distributed warm and soft blankets to the holy men.

All Sadhus were happy and grateful to Omkarananda Ashram Himalayas for organizing this wonderful Bhandara in Honour of Sadgurudev Shri Paramahamsa Omkarananda Saraswati.
