Kala Babu Kunja
Kala Babu Kunja
At the passing away of Sri Ramakrishna and her helpless condition, Holy Mother Sri Sarada Devi was very much overwhelmed. At every turn and with every thought, the mother was being reminded the Master was not there just as he used to be. The devotees too, knew of her state of mind and arranged for her pilgrimage to places sanctified by the presence of the Lord and his incarnations. Accordingly on 30th Aug 1886, accompanied by Golap Ma, Lakshmi Didi, Wife of Master Mahashay, Swamis Yogananda, Abhedananda, Adbhutananda started for Vrindavan. On arriving at Vrindavan on 12th Sept 1886, they stayed at Kala Babu Kunja, which belonged to Balaram Bose's family, on the banks of Yamuna. She stayed there for about a year.
On the ground floor, visitors can walk through a beautiful and informative exhibition on the lives of Bhagawan Sri Ramakrishna, Holy Mother Sri Sarada Devi and Swami Vivekananda. On the first floor is a shrine room dedicated to the Holy Trio.
