    Jagadguru Shree Kripalu Ji Maharaj

    Radha Govind Dham receives its inspiration from Jagadguru Shree Kripalu Ji Maharaj, who is the 5th Original Jagadguru of our times and widely acknowledged as the foremost authority on Bhakti (the path of devotion to God) at the present time

    Birthplace of Jagadguru Shree Kripalu Ji Maharaj

    Shree Maharaj Ji was born in a small village of Mangarh, near the holy city Prayag (Allahabad, India) in 1922. In order to benefit those souls desiring God’s love, Kripalu Ji Maharaj founded an Ashram in Mangarh in 1966.  Over the years, the ashram has steadily expanded to accommodate thousands of devotees who come from all over the world.  Today, Mangarh is a pilgrimage destination with an architectural wondrous Radha Krishna Temple – Bhakti Mandir, and Bhakti Bhavan a90,000 square foot auditorium that can accommodate over 10,000 devotees at one time.

    Proclaimed Jagadguru at a Young Age

    At the young age of 35 years, the fame of Kripaluji Maharaj’s unparalleled scriptural knowledge spread across India and inspired Kashi Vidvat Parishat, an exclusive body of 500 most revered Vedic scholars, to invite him to Kashi to deliver a series of discourses.  His discourses in fluent Vedic Sanskrit left all of the scholars speechless. With profound admiration, Kashi Vidvat Parishat unanimously proclaimed him as Jagadguruttam. After the 4 Jagadguru’s Jagadguru Shree Kripalu Ji Maharaj is the fifth original Jagadguru of India.

    The Legacy Left Behind By Kripalu Ji Maharaj

    Through countless lectures, Jagadguru Kripalu Ji Maharaj has explained the most complex teachings of Hindu scriptures in a simple, practical manner that can be understood by people of all backgrounds.   He emphasized roopdhyan (actively engaging the mind while meditating on the form of God) as the most important part of Bhakti -considering Bhakti without roopdhyan lifeless. He has also revealed a sea of devotional material including Prem Ras Siddhant, 1,008 original pads (devotional songs) and thousands of enchanting Radha Krishna bhajans and kirtans.

    Watch Kripalu Ji Maharaj’s lectures on US Television

    Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj’s discourses are aired daily on US Television.  His spiritual teaching clarifies the purpose of life, details the path of bhakti yoga, and outlines the essence of the Hindu religion.

    Are classes at Shiksha free?

    All Shiksha classes are led by leading professionals in their fields and have a fee associated with them.

    How will Shiksha benefit students?

    Students are the focus of Shiksha. As parents, it is our responsibility to introduce our children to the customs and traditions we grew up with and value so much. We also want to make sure they learn properly and from qualified teachers.

    In addition to enriching our children’s spiritual and cultural development through traditional classes in Hinduism, Language and Music, Shiksha teaches them unique skills they can use to excel among their peers in school by offering classes in Public Speaking Art and Robotics.

    Being at Shiksha opens doors for Indian youth to explore the many treasures of Indian and Hindu culture. Classes are small so that the unique strengths of a child can be focused upon and brought out. Students will gain an educational ‘edge’.

    What can the parents expect by sending their children to Shiksha?

    First, almost all of our teachers here at Shiksha are parents themselves. Not only are they experts, or performing artists in their respective fields, they are also friendly, caring and trustworthy. Many of our teachers have won awards and recognition for their work. Parents can expect classes at Shiksha to be structured, conducted regularly and taught by passionate, dedicated and qualified teachers. The school year is divided into two semesters. Our teachers will follow a well-defined, comprehensive curriculum during these semesters. More importantly, your children will be learning and exploring themselves in a safe, nurturing environment with caring teachers.

    Is there some way I can enrich myself while when my child is attending a class?

    Yes! There are many fulfilling activities for you to get involved in during class time including

    1. Volunteering (areas listed under Volunteer Activities)
    2. Attending satsang in the temple which includes spiritual discourse, kirtan, meditation and arti
    3. Taking classes that are offered to adults.

    Can I teach at Shiksha?

    Sure. Please send an email to Meenakshi Gupta and let us know your passion.
