Every spiritual tour we embark on is considered complete, if a yatri performs the Ganga-puja and honors brahmanas upon return. Tirtha Yatra took up this sacred responsibility on behalf of its yatris by organizing Samaradhana event, ensuring the yatris received the full spiritual benefit of their pilgrimage.
The event was held on November 01, 2025 in Bengaluru at Sri Sringeri Shankara Matha, Malleshwaram and was graced by nearly 200 devoted pilgrims who completed Char Dham Yatra, Do Dham Yatra, Badrinath Weekend Yatra, Saraswati Pushkaralu Yatra, Maha Kumbha Mela Yatra, Kashi Yatra, Haridwar Yatra, Pancha Badri Yatra, Muktinath Yatra, and Kailash Mansarovara Yatra in 2025.
Samaradhana is the one and the first of its kind event which was conducted to express gratitude to the Lord, to the Acharyas, to Mother Ganga, and to every unseen hand that made these yatras possible. Sri Agrani Krishna Dasa who is the guiding force and inspiration for Tirtha Yatra, addressed the gathering with a heartfelt welcome address. He reminded the yatris that they are not tourists but the seekers of bhakti. They don’t travel on a tour but a yatra with sharanagati at every step.
Tirtha Yatris who completed the Kailash Parikrama of 3 days were awarded Lifetime Achievement Certificate from the hands of a renowned Vedic Pandit Acharya Sri Raghavendra Joshi. This was a moment of great achievement, pride, and spiritual fulfilment for those blessed souls. It was also an inspiration for those planning to undertake the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra in 2026.
For those eagerly awaiting the upcoming spiritual yatras in 2026, the official yatra dates were announced during the event. It was a golden opportunity for all the yatris present there to enquire and book their seats. Tirtha Yatra enquiry desk team received numerous enquiries from devotees seeking a hassle-free, divine, and peaceful darshan of their favorite punya kshetras.
The event concluded with traditional Samaradhana pujas followed by a soul stirring Sri Narasimha Kirtan led by Sri Agrani Krishna Dasa which brought tears to the eyes of yatris as it rekindled the memories of their yatra. Every yatri was presented with gifts and served a hot-delicious sattvic meal (prasadam), the iconic hall mark of Tirtha Yatra, making the occasion a truly joyous one.
Every single yatri affirmed that the yatras were not just tours but a transformative journey to boundless spiritual bliss.

Since 2018 I have been associated with Tirtha Yatra in my spiritual journey and still going strong. Thank you Tirtha Yatra and your team for organising the Samardhana . It was a visual treat to participate in the Ganga puja and Shri Narasimha yagna. A grand meet-up with old yatris followed by a sumptuous feast of prasad. The anecdote of their experiences by the yatris was wonderful. May we have some more ….

It was a wonderful Idea of Tirtha Yatra to organise a get together of yatris of different yatras. We could exchange greetings with our co-yatris of earlier yatras. It was also very good to listen to the experiences of many senior yatris. Thank you Tirtha Yatra for providing the opportunity to participate in Ganga Pooja, Narasimha Homa and of course the sumptuous lunch.
