Shree Shivkunj Ashram, Bhavnagar district based Mahant Shri Sitaramdasji Maharaj’s three women disciples will pass through the Diksha ceremony in Maha-Kumbh Mela in Haridwar.
During this ceremony, a person ends his/her worldly life by doing all after-death rituals of her/his own as per practiced in Hindu Dharma. A ‘Diksharthi’ person then enters a new life committed to religious practices.
The disciples of Shri Shivkunj Ashram, scheduled to take Diksha at forthcoming Kumbh Mela – Swamini Shree Vishwa Anandamayee, Swamini Shree Rameshwara Nandini and Swamini Shree Varna Anandmayee are seen in the photograph presented above on the bank of river Ganga in Haradwar based Ved-Niketan dham.
