The ancient Shri Jumat Mandir in the city will celebrate the festival of Guru Purnima on July 29, 2026, with immense devotion, reverence, and joy. As in previous years, all necessary preparations have been completed to uphold the Guru tradition.

Divine Adornments and Spiritual Offerings

The temple will be specially decorated for this auspicious occasion. A key highlight will be the divine adornment of Thakur Ji, for which a special costume has been procured from Mathura. The ethereal form of Thakur Ji, adorned with silver ornaments, beautiful floral arrangements, and exquisite makeup, will be a special attraction for devotees, offering them the fortune of divine darshan.

Remembrance of Guru Tradition and Mantra Diksha

The Guru Purnima festival will commence at 8:30 AM with the worship of the holy footwear at the Samadhi of the late Param Pujya Gurudev. During this time, devotees will offer flowers at the Guru's feet to receive blessings and pay homage to the Guru-disciple tradition.

Following this, from 10:00 AM, Mahant Shri Dipendra Das Ji of Shri Jumat will bestow Guru mantra diksha upon devotees, continuing the sacred tradition of the late Param Pujya Gurudev. This initiation will provide seekers with spiritual direction, the grace of the Guru, and an invaluable opportunity for self-improvement.
