Sadhu Vaswani Mission’s Head Didi Krishna Kumari’s Birthday Marked by Global Wave of Seva Activities
Sadhu Vaswani Mission observed the birthday celebrations of its revered global head, Didi Krishna Kumari, with an outpouring of sevas across the globe. Embracing ideals of compassion and service, Mission’s worldwide centers organized a wide range of humanitarian activities aimed at alleviating suffering and bringing comfort to those in need.
In Pune, home to the Mission’s global headquarters, various sevas were carried out to support those in need. These included aid to the blind and donation of artificial limbs to 22 individuals Among them was nine-year-old Vignesh, who had lost mobility in both legs at the age of six. He and his father journeyed all the way from Karnataka. As he waited in the queue, Vignesh was seen watching Instagram reels of Didi Krishna Kumari on his father’s phone. Having received his new limb, he said, “Birthday toh unka hai, par happy main hoon!” (It’s her birthday, but I am happy) He added that he could now finally take part in the sports he loved and would no longer feel left out.
Additional initiatives included morning community meals, cow seva, educational support for 60 adopted children through school supplies like school bags & stationery kits, and distribution of books, stationery, and joy packets to 100 more children. 115 underprivileged families received clothing, while poor patients at the Government Hospital were provided with multi-purpose bags, biscuit packets, and bananas—helping hundreds across the city.
The Mission and the centers organized free and concessional medical services, including health and dental checkups, blood tests, dialysis, urological and eye check-ups, and free eye cataract surgeries.
In Mumbai, the youth wing ‘Bridge Builders’ stepped out into the sweltering summer heat to distribute cooling drinks to workforces toiling under the sun and to the staff of the B.E.S.T buses, offering them a refreshing moment.
In Bangalore, the Mission reached out to 60 slum families, offering them dinner, school bags, ration kits, and essential medicines.
In Chennai, the Mission observed cow seva, distributed medicines and rations to 60 girls at a local ashram, and provided artificial limbs to the physically challenged — a wide-ranging expression of compassion for all life.
The spirit of seva extended beyond Indian borders. In Abidjan, West Africa, injections were donated to the pediatric cancer ward of a hospital in Treichville.
These acts were tributes of love, inspired by the life of a woman spiritual leader, Didi Krishna Kumari, whose life continues to inspire selfless action and universal compassion. Her dynamism makes her a role model for countless seekers.
Didi Krishna undertakes meditations and conducts spiritual camps, helping people integrate spirituality into daily life. Through her unwavering commitment, she continues to spread the message of her Masters, touching lives across the globe, guiding many on the path of love, faith, and service.
