Meanwhile here in India, arguably the most ambitious of Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat's healthcare initiatives is underway in the holy city of Vrindavan. Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat, the worldwide mission of Shree Kripaluji Maharaj is building the hospital to provide affordable healthcare for the dense population of at least 60, 000. The ground-breaking ceremony of the Vrindavan Kripalu hospital was conducted by Shree Kripaluji Maharaj himself on February 20, 2008.
Kripaluji Maharaj Charitable Hospitals:
Offer Allopathic, Homeopathic, Ayurvedic and Naturopathic treatments to patients.
There is no registration fee whatsoever.
Everything, from diagnosis to treatment (including medication) is free of charge.
All the equipment is state-of-the-art and up-to-date.
The densely populated town of Vrindaban is located on the Yamuna River. Existing hospitals are unable to meet the healthcare needs of the growing population of this once-small village. The new charity hospital being constructed by Shree Kripaluji Maharaj will fill this need.

Happy Guru Poornima from Shree Kripaluji Maharaj's Ashram
The following is an excerpt of an email from a young devotee in Barsana Dham, India at the ashram of Jagadguru Kripaluji Maharaj.It has been a very long day here so far, but amazing. Shree Kripaluji Maharaj has had his door open since 1:30am this morning for pranam. The line to pranam was down the road in front of Rangeeli Mahal and out the gate all morning. Shree Kripaluji Maharaj was so kind to let every single person have the chance to pranam. Last night he gave a beautiful speech on the importance of Guru in a devotees life, and said that even if you were to study every scripture there is, you could never get the knowledge that Guru gives.
This morning we all awoke to Jayati Guruvar chanting and thousands of people standing around and waiting to see Jagadguru Kripaluji Maharaj.
No one can believe the Beauty of Barsana Dham now. Swamiji Prakashanand Saraswati has created the 8th wonder of the world here.
Kirti Ma temple is coming along. The foundation is there and the ground floor is being laid. The Hospital here is also amazing. It is so beautiful inside.

Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat Releases Groundbreaking Textbook
Here at Barsana Dham India, Swami Prem Yogi, a disciple of Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj has just released a groundbreaking new textbook on the science of Yoga in its authentic form based on the teachings of his Master, Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj.
Of the book "Bhaktiyog: Beyond Religion", Shree Kripaluji Maharaj explains: "At present, merely the physical aspect of Yog is being emphasised, while no attention is paid to the selfless, single-minded devotion to Radha Krishn. True Yog is the absorbtion of the mind in loving Bhakti of Radha Krishn. This is the first book on Yog in which the Bhaktiyog of Radha Krishn has been profoundly discussed".
"Bhaktiyog: Beyond Religion" summarizes the philosophy by giving us "The 6 Seeds of Disease and Misery" and "The 12 seeds of Health and Happiness" following which one can become healthy and happy.
On the instructions of Shree Kripaluji Maharaj, a university of Yog is being formed in Orisso for the teaching and training of Yog as described by Jagadguru Kripaluji Maharaj himself.
