Our Activities
For the past seven decades, Sri Ramakrishna Ashram (Batanagar) has been actively working for the Sri Ramakrishna-Vivekananda movement in the Maheshtala region.
This ashram was founded by the late Sachindra Nath Saha. The foundation stone of the temple, which includes a large Natmandir, was laid by Srimat Swami Ranganathanandaji Maharaj. The installation of the images of Thakur, Maa, and Swamiji in the temple was carried out by Srimat Swami Bhuteshanandaji and Srimat Swami Gahananandaji Maharaj.
The ashram has been conducting various activities for many years, such as daily worship and evening prayers, a hostel for students, celebrations of the birth anniversaries of Thakur, Maa, and Swamiji, homeopathy treatment, acupressure therapy, sewing training, a library, and relief work.
During the financial year 2023-24, the following activities and events were organized at our ashram:
