Adyapeath Temple
Dakshineswar Ramkrishna Sangha Adyapeath, founded in 1921 by Sri Annada Thakur, is an organization dedicated to the service of humanity and the worship of the Divine Mother. Sri Annada Thakur believed every human being to be the sons and daughters of the same Mother. Therefore, every monk in the Sangha is addressed as bhai (Bengali for “brother”).
On a large compound in Dakshineswar, the Sangha operates orphanages, schools, homes for the elderly, ashrams, and services for the poor, including food, clothing, and medical care. At the center of all this activity is a loving devotion to the Divine Mother, in the tradition of the great Bengali saint, Sri Ramakrishna, in a uniquely beautiful white marble temple.
