The 127th birth anniversary of Paramhansa Yogananda was celebrated with great pomp and show at the Yogada Satsang Math in Ranchi on Sunday. A large number of people from abroad and different parts of India paid tribute to Paramahansa Yogananda and spent much of their time immersing themselves in devotional music. The view of the Yogada Satsang Math was worth seeing from this morning itself. On this occasion, the Secretary General of the institution, Swami Ishwaranand Giri, said, "The Yoga that has been propagated in the world today - the most credit goes to Sri Sri Paramahamsa Yoganandji, due to which he is also known as the Father of Yoga in the West."
On Sunday, the saints of the Math took part in the Havan Yagya to mark the birth anniversary of Paramhansa Yogananda, and offered prayers with Vedic mantras. After that, a portrait of Paramhansa Yogananda was garlanded and worshiped in various ways.
After this, the aarti of Paramhansa Yoganand was performed, in which all the devotees offered their Guru Paramhansa Yoganand heartily on the occasion of his birth anniversary and offered themselves at his feet. Bhandara was organized after offering Pushpajanali to Paramahansa Yoganand.
