Akhanda Sangha Chief Shri Shri Dadamoni to Visit Kailashahar After 17 Years; Three-Day Religious Programme from November 13

After a gap of 17 years, Shri Shri Dadamoni (Tapan Brahmachariji), head of the Nikhil Biswa Akhanda Sangha, is scheduled to visit Kailashahar on Friday, November 13. A series of religious and auspicious programmes will be organised from November 13 to 15 to mark his visit. The organisers have appealed to people from all communities, irrespective of caste, religion or background, to participate in and support the events.

A press conference was held on Thursday at the Ayachak Ashram on Sarupananda Sarani in Kailashahar to announce the programme schedule. Those present included Bidyut Baran Deb Chowdhury, Assistant Secretary of the Tripura Sanghat Rajya Organisation; Asim Bikash Dhar, Joint Secretary of the North Tripura District Organisation; Shyamal Das, Vice-President of the Kailashahar Regional Akhanda Organisation; Murari Mohan Sarkar, Working President; and Secretary Sunirmal Deb, among others.

Briefing the media on the schedule, Shyamal Das said Shri Shri Dadamoni would leave Kumarghat for Kailashahar at 2.30 pm on November 13. At 3 pm, a procession featuring tableaux, motorcycles and vehicles, accompanied by Hari Om Sankirtan, would begin from Paiturbazar and proceed through the town. He would then be accorded a formal reception at the designated venue. In the evening, he would meet devotees at the Ayachak Ashram on Sarupananda Sarani.

On November 14, the programme will begin at 9 am with initiation ceremonies for new disciples, along with sacred-thread ceremonies and the traditional Hatekhori ritual marking the beginning of a child's formal education. Hari Om Sankirtan and religious discussions will also be held, followed by an opportunity for devotees to meet him and the distribution of Mahaprasad. On Sunday, November 15, Shri Shri Dadamoni is scheduled to leave Kailashahar for Dharmanagar at 10 am.

Shyamal Das further stated that Shri Shri Tapan Brahmachari, known among devotees as Shri Shri Dadamoni, is regarded with deep reverence as the bearer of the ideals and legacy of Shri Shri Swami Swarupananda Paramhansadev (Shri Shri Babamani), founder of the Akhanda ideals and character-building movement, Akhanda Sangha, Ayachak Ashram and The Multiversity, as well as those of Mahasannyasini Shri Shri Sanghita Devi (Shri Shri Mamani), regarded as Babamani's spiritual daughter.

Publicity and preparations for the visit have already gathered momentum across Kailashahar, with several rallies held in the town. The visit has generated considerable enthusiasm among devotees and religious-minded residents. The organisers have appealed for widespread participation and cooperation in all the religious and auspicious programmes scheduled over the three days.
