Akhand Jyoti Sansthan
Akhand Jyoti Sansthan is situated in Ghiyamandi
area of Mathura, which is a city of Uttar Pradesh
State of India. Gurudev Pandit ShriRam Sharma
Aacharyaji started living here with limited
resources and with the Akhand Deepak
(uninterruptedly lighted lamp). From here only,
gradually the relationship of love and intimacy as
well as the revolutionary thinking started
spreading to common people. This was mainly
accomplished by the monthly magazine 'Akhand
Jyoti', that had been started earlier by Gurudev,
when he used to live in Agra. Through personal
letters that were touching the inner consciousness
of people, Gurudev initiated the seed for a great
establishment. Here many anguished and stressful
people came in contact with Gurudev and got new
living force in their lives. They got food and
Prashad from Param Vandaniya Mataji and Gurudev,
thereby becoming subsequently like family members
of Mataji and Gurudev. The 'Akhand Jyoti' magazine
was printed by small leg operated machines on
manually prepared papers. In the nearby small
room, the Akhand Deepak was kept lighted. At this
place, today the room for worshipping is made. The
whole building is bought and given a new outlook
as well as being strongly supported now. However,
this small room has been kept from inside the same
as it was used to be in the Gurudev's period of
1942-43. From 1942-43 till 1973, Gurudev did
Sadhana as well as writing in these two rooms of
the mansion of Ghiyamandi with a deep penance. The
24 Mahapurasharans were completed by Gurudev here.
Gurudev was preparing and editing 'Akhand Jyoti'
as well as 'Yug Nirman Yojana' magazines from
here. The readers of these magazines used to write
back letters to Gurudev. Daily, Vandaniya Mataji
used to read these letters to Gurudev and Gurudev
used to reply back those letters. In this way,
gradually one family was created of those readers
and Sadhaks. In Gurudev's mind, the thought of
building the Gayatri Pariwar came here. The
activities of expansion and publicity continuously
increased from here.
Gurudev in addition to the daily Sadhana used to
engage in the Sahana of writing. Gurudev even was
not taking water till the aimed matter appropriate
for printing was not written by him. As a result
of this great Sadhana, the complete Arsha Sahitya
i.e. Vedas, Upanishads, Puranas, Darshan, Gayatri
Sahitya were created here. In this establishment's
every small bits and pieces one can experience
Gurudev's prevailing consciousness. Though outer
appearance might have been changed but once we
enter inside, we can personally experience the
vibrations of living consciousness of Gurudev and
Mataji. Gurudev's whole thinking in the form of
Vangmaya (Literature) is being published from
here. So you can visit two places in single visit
