Birthday celebrations at the Mohanji Center of Benevolence in Ganeshpuri, Mumbai, India

Mohanjiโ€™s birthday this year came as a conclusive, celebratory end to the Divine Trails of Datta Retreat and the 2024 Mohanji Global Summit. This event was made special by the location โ€” the event was held on the land of the quickly-forming Mohanji Datta Tapovan near Ganeshpuri, Maharashtra.

The birthday celebrations started in the afternoon and the assembled dignitaries gathering to light two lamps. This was followed by a beautiful opening piece of music sang by the renowned Odissi singer, Mahaprasad Kar, who was also present as a dignitary. Then came the first of many book launches of the event, which included the 2023 Global Impact Report that presents the yearโ€™s achievements of Mohanji Foundation and various other platforms founded by Mohanji. Soon after, Mohanji addressed the audience and thanked them profusely for taking time to congregate on this occasion. He shared that he looked at his birthday as a reminder โ€“ that we have a limited time on earth and a responsibility to make the earth a better place for us having been here.

After the first set of book launches, we were treated to a spectacular performance of a condensed Ramayana by the Himalayan School of Traditional Dance. Thematic backgrounds displayed on the large LED screen behind the dancers made it an immersive performance to remember.

Before the first tea break, there were also more book launches, which included a revised and upgraded edition of the book Baba: Mohanji and Masters, and also a presentation by the newly formed World Tribal Alliance, which aims to give worldwide voice to tribal and indigenous people from all areas of the globe. Mohanji then invited the present dignitaries, including ๐—š๐—ผ๐˜€๐˜„๐—ฎ๐—บ๐—ถ ๐—ฆ๐˜‚๐˜€๐—ต๐—ถ๐—น๐—ท๐—ถ ๐— ๐—ฎ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ท, ๐—ฆ๐˜‚๐—น๐—ฎ๐—ธ๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐— ๐—ฎ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ท, ๐—ฆ๐˜„๐—ฎ๐—บ๐—ถ ๐—ฆ๐—ต๐—ถ๐˜ƒ๐—ฟ๐˜‚๐—ฝ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ๐—ฎ, ๐—ฃ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ๐—ฎ๐—บ ๐—ฆ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ถ๐—ฎ, ๐—ฅ๐—ฎ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐—ต ๐— ๐—ฎ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ท, ๐—ฆ๐˜„๐—ฎ๐—บ๐—ถ ๐—ฉ๐—ถ๐˜€๐—ต๐˜„๐—ฒ๐˜€๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ๐—ฎ ๐—ณ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—บ ๐—š๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐˜€๐—ต๐—ฝ๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐—ถ, ๐— ๐—ฎ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ฝ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐˜€๐—ฎ๐—ฑ ๐—ž๐—ฎ๐—ฟ, ๐——๐—ฟ ๐—š ๐—ฆ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ธ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ, ๐— ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ ๐—”๐—บ๐—บ๐—ฎ, to the stage and gifted them a shawl and a special memento marking the day.

Following on from the tea break, we were treated to a teaser presentation by M House Media for their upcoming animated movie based around the lives of Kamadhenu and Nandini, the mother-and-daughter cows now based at MCB Australia.

Then came two upbeat Mohanji-inspired songs by Manaswini and more book launches that included two latest instalments of the iconic Guru Leela Series of testimonial books about Mohanji. ๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ๐˜€๐—ฒ ๐—ฏ๐—ผ๐—ผ๐—ธ๐˜€ ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐˜๐—ถ๐˜๐—น๐—ฒ๐—ฑ โ€“ ๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ๐˜† ๐—ช๐—ฎ๐—น๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—ช๐—ถ๐˜๐—ต ๐—›๐—ถ๐—บ, ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ถ๐—ป ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿฐ ๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ณ๐˜‚๐—น๐—น๐˜† ๐—ฐ๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐˜€๐˜๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐˜๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐˜€๐—ณ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—ถ๐—บ๐—ฝ๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐˜ ๐—ณ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—บ ๐—ฝ๐—ฒ๐—ผ๐—ฝ๐—น๐—ฒ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐˜„๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—ฐ๐—น๐—ผ๐˜€๐—ฒ๐—น๐˜† ๐˜„๐—ถ๐˜๐—ต ๐— ๐—ผ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ท๐—ถ ๐—ผ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐˜†๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜€, sharing their deepest experiences and perspectives of the various dimensions of Mohanji.

This was followed by a spirited musical performance by children who sang three wonderful bhajans, two of them about Guruvayurappan, to the joy of Mohanji and many other Krishna devotees in the crowd.

This was followed appropriately by a presentation video about the grand project of building a replica of the grand Guruvayurappan temple in Vrindavanโ€”the place of Lord Krishnaโ€™s birth and childhood. After this, also on the theme of Guruvayurappan, came the release, by the Himalayan School of Traditional Music, of Hindi and Odia versions of 16th century Malayalam poem Njanappana that is in praise of Lord Guruvayurappan.

As the final set of book launches came around, the main program concluded with an impactful video about the formation of Mohanji Centres of Benevolence worldwide.

The celebrations reached a crescendo with Mohanjiโ€™s cake cutting, happy birthday singing in three languages (English, Serbian and Hindi), and two very special announcements. The first related to the formation of a global council of nine leaders, who, supervised by Mohanji, will be overseeing the strategic and policy decisions of the organisation in a democratic manner. Secondly, after much deliberating and constant creative re-working, an official Mohanji Idol was unveiled that will be available for devotees to purchase and bring Mohanji into their own spaces in an even more lifelike mode.

The event came to a close with a sumptuous dinner, consisting of a delectable spread of vegan food, reiterating Mohanjiโ€™s commitment to a cruelty-free lifestyle and creating vegan sanctuaries around the world.

The smooth flowing nature of the diverse presentations, mixing music, dance, literature and inspiring presentations, made Mohanjiโ€™s 59th birthday an evening for all to remember. May all of us who are connected to Mohanji feel grateful to have experienced another year with his living, benevolence and empowering presence on this earth.

Mohanji’s birthday message

Hello, my dear friends,

I thank each and every one of you for sending me birthday wishes and I really appreciate your time and remembrance and for being with me on February 23rd for my birthday. I appreciate your love, your companionship, and, above all, keeping me in your heart; I am grateful; I am sincerely grateful.

I may not be able to reply to each one of you individually because there are quite a few messages, and they have come from various sources; through various channels, they have reached me. I may not be able to reply directly because I have been traveling, and now I am in Australia, and our programs are about to begin. Many people are here, and I will meet some of you here. I will meet some of you in America in April, and some of you I will meet in Europe. But I would like to meet all of you this year and all other years.

Birthday greeting

I feel life is pretty short to enjoy all the love we can obtain from the world. I would like you to think about the abundance of love we have around us instead of looking for something that is not love, any other emotion that has nothing to do with love. Look into the depth of love we have around us and within us. First, we explore the love within us and express it unconditionally. We also feel the love around us in a reciprocal way, and then we will know that it is worth this life. Life is worth it. I feel it that way.

When I receive all your love and wishes, I feel life is worth it. I have gone through tremendous situations in life that were very painful and sorrowful, but above all, when I receive all your love, your kindness, and your compassion, I feel grateful, immensely grateful. I am grateful to the Tradition for putting me in this world amidst all of you. And I also feel grateful to each and every one of you for showering me with all this love. If I am able to make a positive difference in your life, I am sincerely grateful.

I attribute it to the grace of the Tradition of Liberation of great Masters, amazing Masters who walked this Earth and continue to walk this Earth to fulfill the hearts of people, to give kindness, to give love, to give compassion, to bring back righteousness. I am happy and grateful again that you are all part of it. I honestly feel abundant with your presence in my life. Thank you once again.

I wish you great health, great vitality and great connection. Let this relationship remain forever, unconditionally. Let us not judge each other, let us not criticize, let us not doubt, let us not alienate, let us be love. Let us be love forever. 

I love you, and I am always with you. I hold your hand; I will never let you go. You should hold my hand also, always. I love you. You take care, and we will meet somewhere this year at some time. God bless you. Love you.

Canada

It was not just another day but a very auspicious day of our dear and most loved, respected, our mentor, guide and a great spiritual master Mohanji’s 59th Birthday. We can’t thank the universe enough for giving Mohanji to us. The morning started at the Ashram with kakad aarati and Shirdi Sai Babaโ€™s Abhishek As the team members did the Abhishek, each drop of water offered to Baba was filled with deep gratitude. The totality of a Master is contained within his feet. So after Baba’s Abhishek conducting Mohanjiโ€™s Paduka Pujan (holy feet worship) was the most natural way to worship Mohanji. The deities at the Ashram were all dressed up in new clothes for this occasion.

After a devotional morning filled with bhakti and bhaav, and noon aarati evening celebrations started after dhoop aarati. The group sat down for some quiet time with a short guided Freedom Meditation. To meditate with powerful vibrations around in the ashram on such a powerful day was a cherry on top. A delicious cake was cut to wish Mohanji a very happy birthday. An amazing story was narrated by our team member Shriram who brought the cake that as he went pick the cake, the person in the cake shop asked him if Mohanji was someone special as two more cakes were ordered by people addressed to same name. The evening ended with some joyous moments with food and shej aarati thereafter.

Mohanji Youth Club volunteers joined Mohanji for a joyous celebration of his 59th birthday at Ganeshpuri on Feb 23, 2024! Honoring and appreciating all the love, guidance, inspiration, and support we have received from Mohanji, we completed our 30-day feeding challenge on Mohanji’s birthday! 

Spreading our love and cheer further, MYC, in collaboration with Ammucare, distributed meals at four rural schools in Ganeshpuri. The kids, with their innocence and shyness, melted our hearts.  For many, these school meals are the only source of food they receive for the day. Seeing their excitement upon receiving sweets (delicious jalebis and gulab jamuns), filled us with immense happiness! Jovan from Serbia also joined our bandwagon of fun. We were all delighted to be in the joyful presence of these kids and youth.  We thank Ammucare, Mr. Bharat Thiyya and the cooks at Hotel Ganesh Darbar, as well as the two auto drivers who took us around Ganeshpuri, for their wonderful local support.  Thank you Mohanji. Happy Birthday! We love you!

On the auspicious occasion of Mohanjiโ€™s birthday – Feb 23rd, we were delighted to present the timeless tale of “๐’๐š๐ฆ๐š๐ฌ๐ญ๐ก๐š๐ฅ๐จ๐ค๐š ๐”๐๐๐ก๐š๐ซ๐š๐ค๐š ๐‘๐š๐ฆ, ๐’๐š๐ค๐š๐ฅ๐š ๐‰๐ž๐ž๐ฏ๐š ๐’๐š๐ฆ๐ซ๐š๐ค๐ฌ๐ก๐š๐ค๐š ๐‘๐š๐ฆ!” encapsulated in the concise epic of Nama Ramayana at Ganeshpuri.

The story commences with King Dasaratha’s deep concern about his lack of an heir. The revered sage Rishyashringar performs a yagna, and as a result, King Dasaratha and his wives being blessed with four sons: Rama, Lakshmana, Bharatha, and Shatrughna.

The story unfolds further as Rama and Lakshmana, under the guidance of sage Vishwamitra, join to safeguard the yagna conducted by the sages. They journey through the forest adorned with majestic trees and breathtaking scenic beauty. Along the way, they courageously vanquish the demons terrorizing the forest. Rama also liberates Ahalya from her curse and defeats the demoness Tataka. Guided by the sage Vishwamitra, they arrive in Mithila for Sita’s swayamvara. The lifting of Lord Shiva’s bow, a feat only achievable by Rama, culminates in the splendid union of Rama and Sita.

For Mohanji’s birthday, a grand project was launched in Ganeshpuri. It was building a replica of the grand Guruvayurappan temple in Vrindavanโ€”the place of Lord Krishnaโ€™s birth and childhood. After this, also on the theme of Guruvayurappan, came the release, by the Himalayan School of Traditional Music, of Hindi and Odia versions of 16th century Malayalam poem Njanappana that is in praise of Lord Guruvayurappan.

In the presence of Mohanji, love blooms pure,
A beacon of truth, in this world obscure.
Unconditional, his love does shine,
Guiding me to embrace the divine.
With wisdom vast, he lights my way,
Teaching me to โ€˜Be Youโ€™, come what may.
Through trials and pain, he leads the quest,
To find self-acceptance, my hearts at rest.
In his embrace, I find solace deep,
Learning to love myself, even as I weep.
For in the stillness, he helps me see,
The beauty within, set my spirit free.
Meditationโ€™s grace, he gently imparts,
Leading me to the quietness of my heart.
With each breath, I find my peace,
And from that stillness, my love shall increase.
Mohanji, Master, Father, Guru dear,
Your presence fills me with cheer.
On this day, I celebrate your birth,
Grateful for the love you bring to my heart.

Happy Birthday Father! Thank you
