Shri Swamiji's 50th Anniversary Tapas Completion Celebration, Shri Babaji's Birthday & Tapas Celebrations - 2011

There are three very special and auspicious events that devotees will be celebrating in August, September and November:

Shri Swamiji's 50th Tapas Purti Anniversary on Sunday 7th August

& Shri Babaji's 57th Birthday on Tuesday 20th September

& Shri Babaji's 12th Tapas Purti Anniversary on Wednesday 9th & Thurdsday 10th of November.

Please check with your local group so that you can join with devotees in your area for these celebrations.

Babaji will be at Shri Swamiji's head Ashram in Bangalore on the invitation of the Trustees for the 50th anniversary function of Shri Swamiji's Tapas Purti. He will be at the Dehradun Ashram for both His Birthday and Tapas celebrations. Local groups around the world will be holding events to join together and celebrate these auspicious days. They are wonderful opportunities for devotees to unite across the globe to honor and show respect to Shri Swamiji and His direct disciple Babaji.

Shri Babaji finished His 5 years of deep meditation Tapas on the full moon day of Karthik Purnima in 1999, having served His Guru with the deepest devotion and love for the 20 years prior to that. Such an achievement is extremely rare; to be able to celebrate such an event with a living Realized Master is even more precious. This will be celebrated at the Dehradun Ashram over 5 days, culminating in the final two days of celebrations on November 9th and 10th where devotees from around the world will gather.

Devotees wanting to visit the Ashram during these dates should contact their local representatives in advance or email the Ashram at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it , and should be aware that places are very limited.
