Love & Devotion - Holi 2026 - English

In today’s age of scientific advancement, the world is rushing towards material progress, yet there is a visible lack of mental peace everywhere. In such a situation, Jagadguruttam Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj has presented a scripturally sound, universal and unique philosophical principle, emphasising the indispensability of spirituality along with materialism.

Just as the body and the embodied soul share an eternal, harmonious and inseparable relationship, spirituality and materialism are both equally essential.

The essence of the Vedic knowledge he revealed, Kripalu Bhaktiyoga Tattva-darshan, is that even while engaged in the hustle and bustle of life, one should always remember that God and Guru are ever present, watching over us.

During the festival of Holi, through the example of Prahlada, Shri Maharaj Ji always taught that Holi is not merely a festival of colours and revelry; rather, it is a festival that celebrates the all-pervading nature of God. It inspires selfless, exclusive and constant devotion.

In this issue of Love & Devotion, all these subjects are included. Along with this, glimpses of the Jagadamba Centenary Celebration during the 2025 Sharat Purnima Sadhana Intensive have also been presented.
