Vrindavan, Uttar Pradesh: During a recent visit to Prem Mandir in Vrindavan, Chief Justice of the Allahabad High Court, Justice Arun Bhansali, lauded the remarkable contributions of Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat toward social welfare and human upliftment. Accompanied by his family, the Chief Justice expressed admiration for the institution’s dedication to serving society and preserving India’s spiritual heritage.

Speaking on the occasion, Justice Bhansali observed that the work being carried out by Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat serves as a model for other social organizations. He described Prem Mandir as an extraordinary spiritual landmark whose creation reflects the vision and compassion of Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj. He further remarked that such a magnificent centre of spirituality and values could not have been established by an ordinary individual, emphasizing the profound impact of the Jagadguru Kripaluji’s life and teachings.

Beyond its spiritual and cultural contributions, Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat has been actively encouraging holistic well-being through the promotion of natural living practices. Inspired by the timeless principles of harmony between body, mind, and nature, the organization advocates lifestyle choices that support preventive healthcare and overall wellness.

A key focus of these efforts is the promotion of naturopathy and natural health practices that encourage individuals to adopt healthier daily habits, balanced nutrition, physical activity, stress management, and a closer connection with nature. Such initiatives aim to reduce dependence on medicines wherever possible through preventive care, self-discipline, and healthy living.

Justice Bhansali also appreciated the educational and cultural significance of Prem Mandir, particularly its presentation of the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita. He noted that the temple serves not only as a place of worship but also as a centre for the dissemination of Sanatan values and moral education.

Radhey Shyam Kathuria, a key functionary of these programmes, believes that integrating naturopathic principles into daily life can significantly enhance physical and mental health, elevate quality of life, and foster long-term well-being. The broader objective is to empower individuals to take charge of their health through natural, sustainable practices.

Popularly known as “Bhaiyaji,” Kathuria expressed deep concern over the society’s growing illness, emphasizing that returning to the ancient concept of good health through naturopathy is the need of the hour. Speaking during a telephonic interview from Goa, he stated, “We are doing our best to create a zero-medicine society, a mission that can only be achieved through mass awareness.”

The visit concluded with a warm welcome by Ajay Tripathy, PRO and Prem Mandir officials, who highlighted the institution’s continuing commitment to spiritual awakening, humanitarian service, holistic health awareness, and the promotion of a balanced way of life for the benefit of humanity.
