हरि ॐ (11/15/2020)

The Ashrama at Kanpur started modestly at Raja Manzil, Birana Road, in the 1920s by a group of inspired young men fired with the ideals of Sri Ramakrishna as envisaged and demonstrated by Swamiji. The Ashrama was called ‘Ramakrishna Seva Sadan’ and Srimat Swami Vijnananandaji, a direct disciple of Sri Ramakrishna, first visited this group. The young men, headed by Swami Nityananda a disciple of Holy Mother, actively engaged themselves in serving the poor, the ill, and the illiterate. The saga of these pioneers has now become legendary in this industrial city of Kanpur. With the increase of activities, Ramakrishna Seva Sadan was moved to a new address at Aga Kothi, Ram Narayan Bazar, and was affiliated to the Headquarters at Belur Math in 1931. The Ashrama was now officially ‘Ramakrishna Mission Ashrama’.nn28 October 1936 was a historic day for the Ashrama and Kanpur as well. Srimat Swami Vijnananandaji Maharaj, Fourth President of the Ramakrishna Math and Mission, on his second visit to the city, laid the Foundation Stone for a Shrine. During his five-day stay, he initiated a few devotees and blessed many people. The newly built Shrine was consecrated on 15 August 1937. This old Shrine remains unchanged to this day and still exudes a tangible atmosphere of spirituality.

They close the library on public holidays....as well as some other days also..like some jayanti...n all.....I don't know why...I think they do not follow the principles of Vivekananda ji..... Vivekananda ji said work till u achieve ur aim....but here they close the library....they do opposite to the principles of Vivekananda ji......most of the time library is closed....they should at least open on Monday....that day is fixed permanent holiday on all Monday as well ....the management is really very bad...and the librarian has no knowledge....he acts like he is the head of the Vivekananda ashram...they should under that studens come for studying...and they are serious ...you have to work for them...not to celebrate by closing the library...you celebrate..but okeaee let the library be open.
