Global Spiritual Leader & Bhakti Saint

We are profoundly blessed to welcome the revered H.H. Swami Mukundananda, global spiritual leader and bhakti saint, for this sacred occasion. Swamiji will personally inaugurate the Yamuna Ghat and preside over the divine ceremonies, filling the entire event with his spiritual grace, wisdom, and divine energy.

His divine presence transforms this gathering into a truly transcendent celebration — an experience of faith, devotion, and the eternal love for Yamuna Maa and Radha Krishna.
