Bhaskar Ramanuj Jayanti Celebrations
21-04-2018
On the fourth day of the 5th day of the 11th Brahmotsav of Sri Siddhada Ashram, the birth anniversary of Ramanuja, the originator of Ramanuj sect, was celebrated very strongly. Swami Ramanujacharya is considered to be the incarnation of Lord Shesha of Lord Narayana, who linked the people who were drifted away from spirituality in Kali Yuga towards spirituality. Shrimad Jagadguru Ramanujacharya Swami Shri Purushottamacharya Ji Maharaj, the Head of the pilgrim abode of the Ramanujan sect, Shri Sidhdata Ashram & Shri LakshmiNarayan Divyadham, worshiped the divine deity of Swami Ramanujacharyaji performing Abhishek( holy bath) as per Vedic traditions and prayed for the benefaction of all. Guru Maharaj expressed that only after the name of Ramanuja Swamiji, who well formulated & re- grounded the true essence of Guru Bhakti, the Ramanuj Sampradhaya came to be known as the Ramanujan sect. Originally, this sect was founded by Goddess Mata Lakshmiji hence the name of this sect is also well known as Sri Sampradaya. This pious celebration was inaugurated by Shriman Mr. Vipul Goel, Cabinet Minister of Haryana. This five-day Brahmatosv will be concluded on 22nd April with a Grand Procession with Lord Shri LakshmiNarayana and all other divine deities, which will be inaugurated by Union Minister of State Shriman Shri Krishapal Gujjar.
