MAHANAM MATH, NABADWIP, West Bengal, India
Mahanam Math of Nabadwip was founded in 1971 by Dr. Mahanambrata Brahmachari. Previously the place consisted of a market which was purchased to build this Math. It is one of the first few ashrams of the Mahanam Sampradaya established by Mahanambrataji. An annual celebration takes place at Mahanam Math of Nabadwip around Maghi Purnima to celebrate the first visit of Prabhu Jagatbandhu Sundar to Nabadwip. This celebration takes place for 7 days where the whole locality actively participates.In earlier days it used to be a very big celebration of Mahanam Sampradaya, so people from all corners used to come and participate. On this occasion a ‘Gour Sabha’ used to be held which would act as a platform for spiritual leaders to interact. To participate in this interactive session spiritual leaders from far and near used to travel to Nabadwip. This interactive session was named ‘Gour Sabha’ by Dr. Mahanambrata Brahmachari.
