"My family gets more understanding of Hinduism which strengthens our trust and faith in God every time we attend the Barsana Dham Family Camp. The most important teaching we learned is to love God and form a relationship with God. This knowledge carries us through difficult times. It strengthens our practice of Hinduism at home." Ajgaonkar Family, Austin, TX
"My kids are the ones that made me register! We attended the last Family Camp and they grew from being exposed to the scriptural knowledge. They also had so much fun and met other Hindu kids that wanted to know more about God." Peeyush Goyal, Irving, TX
It is so uplifting just to be here at the ashram. Everything here is charged with spiritual energy, and every time I come I receive blessings beyond anything I could have imagined. A guest from Dallas
Barsana Dham is one of the 5 branches of Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat. With the Gracious blessing of Shree Maharajji, Barsana Dham was established by Shree Swamiji in 1990.
The temple and ashram complex of Barsana Dham is situated on a beautiful 200 acre property. Designed as a representation of the holy land of Braj in India where Shree Radha Rani and Shree Krishn appeared about 5,000 years ago,all the important holy places of Braj like Govardhan, Radha Kund, Prem Sarovar, Shyam Kuti and Mor Kuti are represented in Barsana Dham where the natural stream, named Kalindi, represents the Yamuna river of Vrindaban.
Shree Raseshwari Radha Rani Temple is the only temple in the world that represents the true nikunj darshan of Radha Krishn as described in the Radhikopnishad and the writings of the Great Masters of Vrindaban.
Anyone who visits Barsana Dham experiences the same Divine serenity that was found in the ancient ashrams of the Saints of Vrindaban. It has become a place of pilgrimage for millions of devotees living in the western world.
In Mangarh, the birthplace of Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj, the joyous occasion of Diwali was celebrated by devotees from throughout India.
Early in the morning, and throughout the day, devotees enjoyed captivating bhajans and kirtans composed by Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj in praise of Lord Ram.
In the evening Shree Maharajji took devotees on a parikrama to Bhakti Mandir, and afterwards, there was a most spectacular fireworks display there. Later on, the birthday of our beloved Divine mother, Ammaji, was celebrated with great devotion and joy.
Late evening, magnificent dance displays and cultural items were performed in the presence of Shree Maharajji.
I am a science student from Ireland. I mainly started this blog to document my memories during a 2 month trip to visit my Spiritual Master Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj in India in 2008. I never expected this blog to become so popular with hundred of views every day. The blog is not being regularly updated anymore but I would like to say that Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj is doing so much every day that it is beyond description. It would be possible to write 10s of blogs every day in relation to his charity work, social work, amazingly Divine satsang prograns, talks, tours, festivals, picnics.... I am actually in India right now, enjoying the blissful association of Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj, experiencing the warmth of his Divine and caring personality, and the spiritual upliftment of his satsang... Even at those rare moments when he is not doing anything outwardly, he is still doing so much inwardly. Thanks and Radhey Radhey. 23/9/09
