The highly-awaited yearly Janmashtami and Radhashtami Sadhana Shivirs for 2024 are announced by the Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat. Attendees from all over the world gather for these spiritual retreats, which hold great significance in the Hindu calendar, to immerse themselves in devotion, meditation, and the teachings of Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj. From August 24 to August 26, 2024, Shri Kripalu Dham in Mangarh will host the Janmashtami Sadhana Shivir, with a major celebration of Janmashtami on August 26. The Radhashtami Sadhana Shivir will then occur in 2024, from September 8 to 11, with the Radhashtami festival celebrated on September 11 of that year.

Janmashtami Sadhana Shivir: A Journey of Devotion

Janmashtami denotes the day when Lord Krishna was born, the holy manifestation who gave us the Bhagavad Gita and showed us how to devote ourselves to God. The Janmashtami Sadhana Shivir is a retreat lasting three days, which offers an opportunity for the devotees to meditate, sing bhajans, and listen to spiritual discourses by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj that help them come closer to their beloved God.

The highlight of this event is the celebration of Janmashtami on August 26th, which will be broadcast live on the Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat YouTube channel. Devotees worldwide can join this divine celebration from the comfort of their homes, participating in the midnight abhishek (ceremonial bathing) of Lord Krishna, chanting, and the joyous singing of bhajans that echo the divine leelas (pastimes) of Krishna.

Radhashtami Sadhana Shivir: Celebrating Divine Love

Radhashtami, celebrated 15 days after Janmashtami, marks the appearance day of Radharani, the eternal consort of Lord Krishna and the embodiment of divine love. The Radhashtami Sadhana Shivir, spanning four days from September 8th to September 11th, offers devotees a profound spiritual experience focusing on the love and devotion that Radharani represents.

On September 11th, the Radhashtami celebration will begin at 2 a.m., a time considered highly auspicious. This sacred event, too, will be streamed live on the Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat YouTube channel, allowing global devotees to partake in the rituals, prayers, and kirtans (devotional songs) that honor Radharani’s divine presence. Through these activities, devotees can connect deeply with the essence of Bhakti, experiencing the joy of surrendering to the divine love embodied by Radha and Krishna.
