“I convey my best wishes to the monks and devotees of, and all the students’ community attached to, the Order of the Ramakrishna Mission on their 125th-year celebrations. May the message of Thakur- Ma- Swamiji continue to inspire us all,” tweeted Mamata Banerjee.
According to the Belur math website, Ramakrishna Mission and Ramakrishna Math are non-political, non-sectarian spiritual organizations that have been engaged in various forms of humanitarian, and social service activities for more than a century.
The organizations were brought into existence by Sri Ramakrishna (1836-1886), the great 19th-century saint from Bengal, and his chief disciple, Swami Vivekananda (1863-1902), one of the foremost thinkers and religious leaders of the present age.
