New Year's Eve

Every celebration in the Ashram is part of our spiritual practice, through which we strive to reawaken our awareness of the True Self—the Divine Nature residing in all beings.
Some people experience access to this higher being very directly in Ma’s presence, and so we look forward to celebrating New Year’s Eve with Ma.

We will celebrate the transition into the year 2026 at Sri Neem Karoli Baba Mandir with an Aarti to Maharajji and sing the Hanuman Chalisa, the sacred mantra in honour of Lord Hanuman, 54 times in Ma’s presence. At midnight, Ma will enter the new year with us in silence.

The singing of Hanuman Chalisa will be livestreamed.

17:30 Ashram opens. Chai served on arrival
18:30 We begin with Hanuman Chalisa #1
During the singing, a festive buffet will be available throughout the evening in the Bhandara room
~23:15 Final Chalisa, short break
23:45 Ma enters the new year in silence with us
00:00 We welcome the New Year with an Aarti to Baba

Contributions

A visit to the ashram is connected with a contribution.

  • These contributions — and especially the regular contributions made by Ma’s devotees — help sustain the Ashram. They also made Sri Neem Karoli Baba Mandir possible in the first place. This has been the custom in this Ashram for almost 40 years.
  • By proceeding to Registration you will find the exact contribution for each event.
  • A short visit to offer Pranam in the temples is possible at any time during opening hours. In this case, the Ashram asks for a donation.
  • Attending the daily Aarti is also possible on a donation basis, without contribution.
  • Participation in Seva weekends and Seva days is on a donation basis.

All contributions and donations help sustain the two ashram, Ashram Brindavon and Sri Neem Karoli Baba Mandir.

Accepting the past
man attains freedom,
to let go of all that is past.
