The area
Address
Neighbourhood: Basavangudi
Close to Jayanagar and home to the Bull temple after which it was named,
Basavanagudi is one of the oldest localities in the vibrant metropolitan of Bengaluru,
with structures replete with character, architecture and rich history. Numerous old
and beautiful temples define the true essence of this green locality filled with chirpy markets like the colourful Gandhi Bazaar, many parks with ancient trees, a wide range of unique eateries and dotted with tiny lakes. Taking a stroll here is full of
Malgudi Days throwback moments since this pretty lush green neighbourhood has still retained its old-world charm, which might remind you of scenes and stories from the popular collection of short stories by RK Narayan. From a stately old spacious home that once belonged to the Diwan of Mysore, a shop in a heritage family home, a 100-year old home that has turned into a reservoir of modern art, there is a lot of cultural confluence at every step.

On 13th Mar'22, myself along with my parents, son & bro (Arvinth) got to visit Sri Ramakrishna Mutt, located at Basavanagudi, Bengaluru.
Being a devotee of Holy Trios, used to visit all the centres of Holy Trios at various locations. It is a wonderful monastic institution, aims at harmony of religions, spiritual fulfilment etc.,
In 1897, Swamiji Vivekananda established the Ramakrishna Order of Monks, the Ramakrishna Mutt & Ramakrishna Mission as per the order of his Guru Sri Ramakrishna. One such establishment is Ramakrishna Mutt at Basavanagudi. The atmosphere was extremely serene & peaceful.
It has got a beautiful shrine for Holy Trios, a pretty big prayer hall, surrounded by beautiful garden. A must visit place for the devotees of Holy Trios.

The place which has been sanctified by none other than Swami Vivekananda and SriSri Sarada Ma, has an equally befitting ambience. Sprawled across a large area, the place imbibes an automatic spirituality. Well maintained gardens, clean precincts definitely adds to the spiritual factor.
The Reverend Swamiji singing the bhajans has a golden voice and it is a treat to hear him . His voice alone has the capacity to transform the mind to a higher level .

This place is close to Basavangudi bull temple road. The shrine of the Holy trinity is very beautiful and the worship is done with great fervor and the Bhajans sung during the pooja are really melodious and give you real peace.
the complex has the famous mothers rock where the holy mother meditated when she visited Bangalore. On the whole the complex is nice place to visit and spend time in. They have a nice bookstall with their books which are interesting to read . A great place which will provide respite from stress. the whole campus is very beautiful and the math is very active in social service and conducts many activities all through the year.

The Ramakrishna Math in Bangalore is located in a small yet serene campus. Situated near Basavanagudi, which is better known for its Big Bull temple, this place, dedicated to the Ramakrishna Mission, nevertheless stands out.
The Math has a temple as well as a library, containing books and material on the teachings of Ramakrishna Paramhansa and Swami Vivekananda, who spent time at this place during a visit to Bangalore. There is a beautiful rock and garden, dedicated to the Holy Mother, Sarada Devi. There are benches to sit on and there is plenty of greenery across the campus. Free of pollution, this place is a welcome escape from the busy traffic outside.

I am a regular visitor to Math, which like all centres of Ramakrishna Ashram is peaceful, quiet and a place to contemplate on oneself. There are regular classes on various scriptures, and there are classes for kids also.
The teachings of Ramakrishna Paramahansa, Swami Vivekananda and Holy Mother are applicable to all stages and for everyone. One gets to listen to those in events.
There is a regular devotional service each day, and many events are celebrated.
There is a library in Math.
On the service side, the Math has a free medical dispensary for all, which provides free medicines for all in need. There is a regular cataract surgery camp also which is done in Aashram

Ramakrishna and Vivekananda were both teachers of discipline. Whatever they taught could be applied practically.It is followed even now and children are taught spirituality with worldly lessons. This ashrama has a hint of that divinity and also maintains its practicality. It is big and has a great divinity inflicting environment.
