An urge for establishing an ideal, value-based institution with untiring zeal, in a nutshell is the genesis of our Institution -Sri RamakrishnaSarada Ashrama, Hazaribag. Our association with it since its inception in 1992 and even earlier, is indeed a rare privilege. This institution is destined to reach great heights by the spirit of hard work and dedication of its founder President Swami Tapananda Maharaj, who received blessings of Swami Viveksnanda and his own Gurudev Swami Himangshu Maharaj, a direct disciple of Holy mother Sarada Devi. Swami Tapananda's endavavour of social upliftment and spiritual enlightenment especially of neglected, uneducated masses provides the impetus of service. Our Ashram is the symbol of our manifold service rendered to needy people of this place and other adjoining areas. To our modest but sincere efforts to serve the cause of socially backward, along with the rest, a new feather has been added through B.Ed. facility made available from the session 2012-13in the spiritual environment of Ashram Premises. This facility of educational need has received tremendous impetus among the untrained graduates of Hazaribag as a whole. I think B.Ed. course provides the backbone of teaching environment. So very important in the overall improvement of mental and spiritual up-liftment is visualised by our Hon’ble President, Swami Tapananda jee Maharaj from the inception of the School in 1992. Now that dream has been realised.
‘Teaching and training are unavoidable aspects of human growth. Since the dawn of civilization men have always craved for understanding everything that surround us, the whole cosmos and beyond, and in this process there always have been people - the ‘gurus, the teachers to transmit knowledge down to generations and also to create and acquire new knowledge. In this way teaching is one of the most natural and primary human acts, and everyone who knows something can teach those who want to lear something. But there are good teachers and bad ones too.
