We have been able to rehabilitate 16 poor, orphan, malnourished children in our ashram. Our desire is to provide them with an enabling atmosphere for grooming those children so that they can pass up to Class X standard at least successfully. The children belong to the age group of 5 - 9 years. We are incurring an expense of Rs.2600/- per month per child for providing books, notebooks, dress, nutrition, treatment, tuition fees and other maintenance expenses. Now that things are becoming unbearable for our ashram to continue with the said programs, we earnestly look for donations by offering yearly membership of our ashram.

We appeal for your valuable support. We sincerely request you to visit our ashram and experience the activities.

Your donation in A/C Payee cheque/DD/MO in favour of "CHANDANPIRI SRI RAMKRISHNA ASHRAMA" will be accepted with gratitude. All the donations are exempted under 80G of IT Act and the same will be acknowledged with our official receipt.

Subho Bijoya!!!

If you're around Ashram, and try to peep in the corner room of the first floor at 2:30 am....you'll find the lights on and an octogenarian talking to himself sitting on his bed. He is speaking to his God actually and he does it 365 days without giving it a miss.

Sharp at 5 am, he rings the wake up bell and keeps on calling by the names of all 15 children who stay and study in the ashram. 5:30 am is the prayer time. So there cannot be any delay in that. That is Bholanath Mukhopadhyay for you. The 86 year old educationist and an embodiment of sacrifice who is considered to be the main guiding force behind all the activities of Chandanpiri Sri Ramkrishna Ashram.

A Presidency college pass out and later worked as a science teacher in Hare School for 2 years during 1959-60, Sri Mukhopadhyay devoted his life to a greater cause "service above self". He got an offer to join Calcutta Customs as a supervisor as soon as he completed his studies. But he had to opt for teaching when his mother wished so. She helped her son to continue with his studies by constantly selling away her ornaments. So, Sri Mukhopadhyay respected his mother's wish and started teaching in the village.

In 1961, he joined 24 Paragnas District School as head of the institution and went on shaping up the way he wanted. The then Chief Minister of West Bengal Dr. Bidhan Chandra Roy came to know about his contribution to the society and paid a visit to his school without any prior intimation. Dr. Roy reached the school premises when Sri Mukhopadhyay was taking classes. The Chief Minister thoroughly enjoyed his class sitting at the back without disturbing him. When the class got over, Dr. Roy went up and met him, discussed if the govt could be of any help to accomplish his mission. Going back, he immediately asked the then state govt finance minister Shailo Mukherjee to sanction Rs.25000/- for the development of the school. He served the school till 1985. There are lot more stories still lying afresh with Sri Mukhopadhyay involving Dr.Bidhan Roy and every time he recapitulates, his eyes glitter or get moist.

In 2006, the bachelor educationist decided to leave Kolkata and permanently stay here in Chandanpiri among the little kids. With new hopes and dreams, he became the part and parcel of the Ashram life. Since then, he is all in all.

A real saga of a true monk who could inspire thousands of little kids to become a proper human being. And that is his success story. Take a bow, Sir!! You're a spiritual genius!!

Have you ever heard or thought of a small kid from a far away village boasting of their ancestral profession, which is farming land and ploughing crops out of it? That is exactly what Ujjwal Maiti's future plan. The 7 year old, Haripur (Namkhana) boy has already made up his mind to follow his father's footsteps when he'll become a man. He proudly declares, "I want to be a farmer, when I'll grow big." He looks dapper.

Meet Somnath Mondal. The seven year old, a very less speaking and innocent lad from Canning, South 24 Paragnas is one of the 15 inmates that is being taken care off by Chandanpiri Sri Ramkrishna Ashram. An orphan who has lost his parents few years' back in an accident, Somnath is studying in Nursery at Chandanpiri Sri Ramkrishna Nursery & Primary School. Since then he is here.
When I met Somnath in the Ashram on an August morning, he remained speechless. I was frantically trying to make him talk, smile or move. But he was utterly feeling uncomfortable...staring at me with hopeless eyes. The Vice President Bholanath Mukherjee, who is the mentor and the Headmaster of the school informed me that Somnath is already prone to a good number of diseases. The latest being related to Prostate. Just imagine, a small kid being affected by such a deadly disease and he doesn't know his future. Going out of the room, he looked up at me. We had an eye contact and he smiled for the first time!!! A smile which evoked thousand untold stories....I got saddened. He murmured to my ears, "Mandir valo lage ar Dadu-ke ( Sri Bholanath Mukherjee) bhoy lage"
