RELIGION OF HUMANNESS

The very foundation of Nandigram is rooted in spiritual practices and exploration of simple life style while serving societal needs. There are no complex rites and rituals in daily spiritual practices. Even there are no bars on class, caste, creed or nationality here. Instead, here there is only one religion-a religion of humanness. All are respected equally here. Nandigram inhabitants live here as one big family.

સાવ સહેલાને ભલા, અઘરું કરી મૂકો નહીં
આ હવા, આ તેજ, આ ટહુકા પરે આવ્યા જ તે.

નંદિગ્રામ અષ્ટક

નંદિગ્રામ તણું વૃંદ આનંદે વિહરો સદા,
શ્રી હરિ તમ સાથે છે, હરશે ભય આપદા

યાચવી ઈશ-કૃપાને, સીમાએ પુરુષાર્થની
અન્યથા ભક્તિ કરવી, સદા પૂર્ણ સમર્થની,

અસ્તિત્વે ધરવી શ્રદ્ધા સૂક્ષ્મ સત્વો તણી છતાં
યોગ-પ્રત્યક્ષ દ્રષ્ટિથી જવું સંશય છેદતાં;

સાંનિધ્યે એ સ્વયં ખોલે લોકાન્તર તણી ગતિ
પોતે સર્વ પિછાણીને મૌનમાં ધરવી મતિ

આત્મક્ષેત્ર કદી લાગે મંદ મંથર ઊગતું,
અમૃતબીજથી નક્કી કલ્પવૃક્ષ થશે છતું

સત્કૃતિ કર્મભેદી હો, દ્રષ્ટિ હો કાળભેદિની
જોશો સકળ પૃથ્વીની અહીં માનવ-મેદની

ધન્ય છે જે અહીં આવ્યા, આવશે, વસશે અહીં
વર્ધમાન કળા પામી વિરામે પૂર્ણતા મહીં

નંદિગ્રામ તણું આ છે અષ્ટક અંતરાત્મનું
પ્રેરણા પરમાત્માની, પ્રાગટ્ય માનવત્વનું

YAJNA
VIDYA

This spiritual practice – Yajna, was the last gift from Makrandbhai to the inmates. It is not merely a ritualistic activity but is meant for internal spiritual awakening. The whole process with its deep esoteric meaning is explained in a booklet ‘Yajna Vidya’. It is performed on every Sunday morning as Nandigram regularly

SEEK YOUR
INNER PEACE

Nandigram has always been a Spiritual epicenter for people seeking inner peace and enlightenment. The various highly spiritual places scattered across Nandigram serve as power points for those yearning to delve into the depths of their souls and connect with higher power. The Spiritual energy exuded here is experiential, drawing people from all walks of life to seek solace and spiritual awakening.

SPIRITUAL
EVOLUTION

The prime purpose of Nandigram is to help people in the pursuit of their spiritual upliftment. Makrandbhai has left behind voluminous literature on the subject. On the basis of this as well as scriptures referred to and recommended by him, we envisage to establish a guidance and training center to help each aspirant Sadhak to ascertain his/her specific style and level of evolution. So that they can carry on the onward spiritual journey.

NATURE'S SYMPHONY

All these places offer a serene environment for individuals to disconnect from the chaos of life and reconnect with their inner selves. The lush green trees, the colourful fragrant flowers and chirping of birds act as a natural background score, harmonizing the mind, body and soul with the inner divine beings. The whole center encompassing the trees and numerous meditation centers exudes an air of tranquility and spirituality.

SPIRITUAL ACTIVITIES

Every year, on 31st January (Makrandbhai’s Death anniversary), Hanuman Jayanti (Lord Hanuman-Birthday), 30th April (Kundanikaben’s Death Anniversary) and 13th November (Makrandbhai‘s Birthdate), various programs such as Bhajan, Prarthana, spiritual talks, recorded speech of Shree Makrandbhai and Shree Kundanikaben are organized and celebrated with inner joy and enthusiasm in Nandigram. On these special occasions, hitherto unpublished literature written by Shree Makrandbhai and Shree Kundanikaben are published and released.

સંગીત અને સાધના

"Bhajan Tirth" represents the guru in the form of Bhajan—a sacred means of connection and intimacy with God. Bhajans hold profound significance in our culture, spanning spiritual, cultural, and social dimensions. Makrandbhai firmly believed that a major cultural transformation could be achieved through Bhajan, provided it transcends mere musical entertainment to play a crucial role in transmitting moral values.

Bhajans are observed to have therapeutic effects on the mind, body, and ego. The rhythmic chanting, soothing melodies, and positive affirmations promote relaxation, reduce distress, and uplift the mood. However, their highest role is to foster spiritual orientation.
