The Bhagavad Gita is not merely a religious text but a divine guide that dispels the darkness of human life. In celebration of Gita Jayanti, a grand International Gita Festival was held on December 1 at Gupt Vrindavan Dham, Jaipur, featuring a series of spiritual and cultural events.
The chief guest, Dr. Soumya Gurjar, former Mayor of Jaipur Municipal Corporation (Greater), felicitated and encouraged the winners with special awards. Other distinguished guests—including RJ Shivangi (FM Tadka), Manju Meena (Doordarshan), OP Modi (OK Plus Group), and Nirmal Dargad (ECMS)—also praised the children for their remarkable performances.
More than 500 students from 30 reputed schools of Jaipur participated in the festival, showcasing their talents in group competitions such as Gita Shloka recitation, Vedic costume presentation, classical dance-drama, and various artistic presentations.
On the sacred day of Gita Jayanti (Ekadashi), the Dham hosted Gita Parayan, Gita Yagna, Gita Daan, and special Kirtan throughout the day. The event also marked the inauguration of the International Gita Olympiad.
Amitasana Das, President of Gupt Vrindavan Dham, stated that the International Gita Mahotsav will inspire and promote Gita-based education and cultural values in Jaipur, Rajasthan, and across the world.
