Ramakrishna Mission Ashrama's 11th annual celebrations begin in Tirupati
The Ramakrishna Mission is a group that shares spiritual teachings and helps people grow in wisdom.
The Ashrama in Tirupati, India, is having a big celebration.
It is the eleventh time this celebration is happening.
The celebration lasts for three days and is full of spiritual and devotional programmes.
It started on a Sunday with a special retreat for devotees.
Devotees are people who follow the teachings of God with love.
A monk named Swami Sukritanandaji gave a talk about Sri Ramakrishna.
He said Sri Ramakrishna combined deep spiritual knowledge with loving devotion to God.
Another leader, Dr PV Reddy, talked about learning to know yourself.
He said practicing Yoga helps people become wise, calm, and peaceful inside, even when things are hard.
The three-day 11th annual celebrations of the Ramakrishna Mission Ashrama, Tirupati, began on Sunday with spiritual programmes.
A spiritual retreat for devotees was organized as part of the opening day's celebrations.
Secretary Swami Sukritanandaji delivered a discourse on 'Sri Ramakrishna – The Knower Within and the Devotee Outside'.
He said Sri Ramakrishna's life blended spiritual knowledge and deep devotion, with knowledge and devotion complementing each other rather than opposing paths.
President Dr PV Reddy spoke on Swami Vivekananda's teaching 'Know the Self; by knowing the Self, you know the world' and how Yoga develops wisdom and inner peace.
