Bharat is a country of festivals. From Ancient times these festivals of Sanatan Sanskriti have promoted environmental well-being, mental and physical health, and spiritual aura. 

 

In recent times it is observed that blind following of western culture  has introduced festivities that encourage excessive alcohol consumption, drug abuse, obscenity and have led to alarming rises in accidents and suicides.  These troubling trends have definitely raised concerns in the hearts of well seekers of our country.

 

To provide a meaningful, healthier and widely accepted alternative for toxic festivities Sant Shri Asharamji Bapu started Tulsi Pujan Diwas in 2014.  

 

Since then the celebrations of Tulsi Pujan Diwas on 25 December have gained momentum and it was  widely covered by Indian media, receiving widespread support from eminent personalities and saints worldwide.

 

Tulsi Pujan Diwas is one of the flowers from the bouquet of many social welfare and moral upliftment projects started by His Holiness Bapuji.

 

Some of the beautiful projects started by Sant Shri Asharamji Bapu are Parents Worship Day, Vedic Holi, Vedic Raksha Bandhan, Bal Sanskar Kendras, Youth Empowerment camps, Tejaswini Bhaw Campaigns etc.
