In Hindu religion and culture, the day of Guru Purnima has a very special significance. For us, this is the most auspicious day, as it was on this day in the year of 1925 that Swami Satyanand Ji Maharaj was blessed with God-Realization at Param Dham Dalhousie. This day is celebrated at Gohana Ashram with much fervour, where devotees in multitude from all places flock to celebrate this day by paying their love and respects to Swami Ji Maharaj.

There is absolutely no ostentatious displays of reverence towards the Master. No material offerings are accepted.

The best gifts presentable to Guru are petals of Love & Devotion expressed through Jaap.

Akhand Jaap is organized and the concluding prayer is rendered in the satsang.

Akhand Jaap at Gohana Ashram is organized throughout the year on daily, weekly, fortnightly and monthly basis. Every year from early December to early March, for a duration of 90 days, Akhand Jaap is organized at Shree Ram Sharnam Gohana.

For the devotees, this period has its own appeal and importance. Pujya Gurujans are in Shree Ram Sharnam Gohana during these 90 days and there are at least three to four satsangs every day, where the recitation of scriptures like Amritvani, The Geeta, Bhakti Prakash and Ramayan is carried out.

Devotees from all over the world try to come to the Shree Ram Sharnam Gohana during this time to participate in this Maha Yagya. Devotees representing various cities volunteer to render their Sewa (services).

Some devotees stay for a few days, some for weeks and some fortunate ones for the entire span of three months for Sadhna. Anyone who comes here during these days can experience an ambience of Sadhna Satsang.

It is everyone’s earnest desire to be present during the conclusion of this Maha Yagya (Puranahuti Satsang) which is mostly in the second or third week of March(on a Sunday).

Pujya Pita Ji Maharaj and Pujya Maa Ji Maharaj bring the Akhand Jyoti to the Satsang where the Puranahuti Prayer (the concluding prayer) is rendered by in presence of tens of thousands of devotees.

In a tradition started by Pujya Gurudev Shree Swami Satyanand Ji Maharaj, recital of the holy scripture- Valmiki Ramayan Sar (Written by Shree Swami Satyanand Ji Maharaj), is done during the Navratras in March/April (at Shree Ram Sharnam Jalandhar) and September/October (at Shree Ram Sharnam Ludhiana). Pujya Maa Ji Maharaj leads the congregation of thousands to recite the Ramayan. Thousands of sadhaks from across ag groups recite Ramayan together in vibrant and melodius chants.

The birthday of our Spiritual Master Swami Saytanand Ji Maharaj is celebrated as per the Hindu calendar, on the ‘Shukal Puranmasi’ of the Indian month of ‘Chaitra’ (usually April).

At this occasion Sadhna Satsang and Akhand Jaap are organized at the Gohana Ashram, the conclusion of which is done in the satsang amongst all the devotees.

Pujya Bade Pita Ji’s birthday falls on the 2nd of October and is celebrated at Gohana Ashram where Akhand Jaap is organized. Sometimes it also coincides with the ‘Navratas’ while the annual Ramayani Satsang is going on at Ludhiana, Punjab.

No one is allowed to offer any material gifts or presents. The most valuable gift which we can give him is the commitment towards living a simple and pious life based on the principles of ‘Truth and Simplicity’ which are the true gifts of Bade Pita Ji’s to all of us.

What better way to celebrate the New Year than, chanting Ram Ram.

At New Year’s Eve, each year, Satsang is organized at Gohana Ashram, where under the benign Presence Shree Krishan Ji and Rekha Ji, the devotees recite Amritvani and Bhajans. The excitement and enthusiasm of the devotees at that time are overwhelming.
