SPIRITUAL
It is a well known fact that every soul aspires to have peace, bliss and fulfilment. And it is a  much more realized fact that one can have these within oneself i.e. the spirit behind everyone. To help this, meditation, bhajans, discourses, retreats etc. are conducted in the Ashrama campus. Celebrations of Gurupurnima, Janmashtami, Durgastami, Kali Puja, birthdays of Sri Ramakrishna, Sri Sarada Devi, Swami Vivekananda and others are observed. A prayer hall is made available for this purpose. A grand celebration is also held at Savitri Pahar, Pushkar every year with poor feeding in commemoration of Sri Sarada Devi’s visit to this place. Further, we feel proud to say that Jaipur is going to have a monumental Temple of Sri Ramakrishna similar to one at our Headquarters, Belur Math, Howrah.
