Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat


Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat, previously known as Sadhna Bhawan Trust, was established in 1970 by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj and continues to run today under his auspices, with the leadership of the three Presidents he has appointed.
As a non-profit, charitable, educational and spiritual organisation, dedicated to increasing spiritual awareness, JKP works tirelessly to disseminate the teachings of Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj throughout the world. Following a clearly defined set of aims and objectives, JKP continues its work in India and globally, focusing on the growing number of people seeking spiritual guidance and support. In addition to this, JKP also works to cater to broader social welfare issues, such as educating and providing medical care to those at a disadvantage in society. This work has increased substantially over the years and JKP's three hospitals now cater to over 450,000 people annually. These efforts have been sustained through the auspices of Kripalu Maharaj and the JKP Presidents who continue to guide and inspire the trust to move forward. Due to this, JKP is continuing to have a smooth and efficient operation.

JKP Monuments

JKP, under the inspiration, love and guidance of Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Maharaj, will continue to strive in its goal to serve more of the hundreds of thousands of people who are in desperate need of welfare. His appointed JKP Presidents are tirelessly moving forward with the goals set out by the founder.
Under the umbrella of JKP, there are three main philanthropic groups that have been established by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj.

JKP Hospitals

The first, Jagadguru Kripalu Chikitsalaya, a 100% free charitable hospital group that was established in 2003. The setup of JKC started with hospitals setup in Kunda and then in Barsana which are both in Uttar Pradesh. JKC has helped thousands of sick villagers in these remote locations in India due to the lack of medical facilities. It is unimaginable how such an endeavor has saved so many lives. In September 2015, JKC opened its third facility in Vrindavan, housing important medical equipment, doctors and nurses living quarters as well as 100-beds to treat patients. All three hospitals will serve over 450,000 people in Uttar Pradesh ensuring constant medical care through a combination of allopathic, homeopathic, ayurvedic and naturopathic treatments.

JKP Education

The second group under JKP is Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat Education which provides 100% free schooling to over 5000 village girls living near and around Kunda. The schooling covers from pre-primary to post-graduate levels, using the best technology and amenities, via three institutions at Pratapgarh in Uttar Pradesh. Unfortunately, girls in this location do not receive the kind of education that would help them succeed in life. We know that when girls have equal opportunities to education, then the cycles of poverty are broken, economies grow and their potentials are unleashed.

The third group is JKP's task of providing social services in as many means as possible. This is done through the various funds to help widows, the poor and underprivileged.
For example, in April 2015, JKP distributed clothes and daily necessities to 4000 widows in Vrindavan and in November 2015 more than 5000 Sadhus were provided with valuable necessities for their living.
35000 Impoverished Individuals given Winter resources in December 2019 by JKP. Like this, many efforts are made to serve humanity.
