125th Anniversary of Swami Vivekananda’s Visit to Bangladesh: Dinajpur, May 2025

Ramakrishna Mission, Dinajpur, Bangladesh


To commemorate the 125th anniversary of Swami Vivekananda’s historic visit to Bangladesh (then East Bengal) in 1901, Ramakrishna Ashrama and Ramakrishna Mission, Dinajpur organized a two-day celebration on 7–8 May 2025.

The event began with special puja, Gita chanting, stotra path, and devotional songs offered by monks and devotees. A Bhakta Sammelan followed, attended by 250 devotees, focusing on Swamiji’s vision of Vedanta-inspired service and spiritual awareness.

A Youth Conference was also held, drawing 195 students from around Dinajpur. It aimed to inspire the youth through Swamiji’s ideals of self-discipline, nation-building, and universal spirituality.

A Monastic Retreat brought together 20 monks and brahmacharins from various centres in Bangladesh for spiritual reflection.

The presence of Revered Swami Purnatmananda ji Maharaj (Adhyaksha, Ramakrishna Math & Mission, Dhaka) added great spiritual significance to the occasion.

This meaningful celebration paid tribute to Swami Vivekananda’s message of harmony, service, and spiritual awakening—reaffirming the Mission’s growing impact in Bangladesh.
