Bhandara Seva
Sadhu Bhandara is a uniquely divine and meritorious opportunity of venerating Sadhus and of offering them food (the foundation of life). From the very beginning, Nepali Kshetra has been committed for providing services to those who are in need, making bhandaras a regular practice at the ashram. Each day hundreds of sadhus and others in need are offered a satvik meal, very often sponsored by our generous doners. We are happy to be able to offer you the opportunity to make an offering of a bhandara or meal to Mahadev Devi Nepali Kshetra in Rishikesh. Celebrate your special days like birthdays, anniversaries, birth or death of loved ones or any auspicious event in your life by offering a Bhandara at Nepali Kshetra.
