New Year DMS 2026 Concludes at Anandanagar with Spiritual Fervor and Service Spirit

Anandanagar, West Bengal | December 30, 2025 – January 1, 2026

The New Year Dharma MahaSammelan (DMS) 2026 of Ananda Marga was held with profound spiritual vibrancy at Anandanagar – the City of Bliss, the spiritually charged Tantra Piitha of Earth and cradle of ancient Rarh Bhumi. Thousands of Margiis and spiritual aspirants from India and across the world gathered to welcome the New Year in an atmosphere of devotion, collective sadhana, cultural expression, and selfless service.

Seva Dal Day Celebration

The Sammelan commenced with the Ananda Marga Seva Dal Day Celebration on 29th December 2025 at Manav Mitra Bhavan, Anandanagar, honoring the discipline, sacrifice, and service spirit of Seva Dal volunteers dedicated to humanity.

Spiritually Charged Inauguration

The New Year DMS formally began with morning sessions enriched by the holy address of Revered Purodha Pramukh Ácárya Vishvadevánanda Avadhúta, accompanied by Kiirtan, Prabha’ta Sam’giita, and collective meditation. The spiritually electrifying environment reflected the essence of Anandanagar as a sacred land blessed by three Mahasambhutis.

Cultural and Inspirational Programs

The Sammelan featured inspiring discourses, RAWA (Renaissance Artists & Writers Association) cultural performances, motivational meetings, and spiritual gatherings. RAWA artists beautifully expressed Neo-Humanistic ideals through art, music, and performance, uplifting collective consciousness.

New Year’s Day Celebration & Recognitions

On New Year’s Day 2026, Revered P.P. Dada Ácárya Vishvadevánanda Avadhúta blessed revolutionary married couples and felicitated dedicated workers for their exemplary service to the Ananda Marga Mission.
Awards and recognitions were presented for Pracár works, Janseva, LFT, Tatvika, Seva Dharma Mission, Kiirtan, along with acknowledgements for Ácáryas, Avadhútas, PR Team, and winners of Tandava–Kaosikii competitions, celebrating selfless service and dedication.

Ocean of Kiirtan at DMS Pandal

A spiritually electrifying highlight was the massive collective Kiirtan at the DMS Pandal, where thousands of voices resonated with the chanting of the Astakshari Siddha Mahamantra – “Baba Nam Kevalam”, creating an ocean of devotion, unity, and universal love.

AMURT Annual Celebration – Service to Humanity

The AMURT Annual Celebration marked the humanitarian dimension of the Sammelan. Dedicated AMURT volunteers served needy villagers from around 52 surrounding villages through blanket distribution and mass feeding. Revered P.P. Dada felicitated volunteers for their tireless day-and-night service, exemplifying the spirit of compassionate action.

Kiirtan Bliss on New Year’s Eve

The Sammelan concluded with Kiirtan Bliss on New Year’s Eve, where devotees immersed themselves in ecstatic devotion at the Kiirtan Mandap, Anandanagar. Kiirtan led by Harii Parimandal Goshti from different Bhukti, filled the night with spiritual joy, surrender, and divine remembrance.

The New Year Dharma MahaSammelan 2026 stood as a powerful confluence of sadhana, service, culture, and collective inspiration, reaffirming Ananda Marga’s mission of self-realization and service to humanity as the world stepped into the New Year.
