Ujjain (Madhya Pradesh): On the occasion of Guru Purnima, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav visited the historic Maharshi Sandipani Ashram in Ujjain.
Here, he performed aarti and offered prayers to Maharshi Sandipani, the revered guru of Lord Krishna. The puja and aarti were conducted by Pandit Rajesh Joshi.

CM Yadav also visited the ancient Kundeshwar Mahadev Temple nearby and offered his respects.
Speaking on the occasion, CM Yadav said he has been visiting the Sandipani Ashram every year on Guru Purnima for many years. He highlighted the significance of the ashram, saying it holds a glorious history.
Around 5000 years ago, Lord Krishna, along with his brother Balram and friend Sudama, studied under Maharshi Sandipani at this very place. Lord Krishna learned 14 types of knowledge and 64 traditional arts in a very short time here.
This ashram is a symbol of how a student can achieve complete development. It is through the teachings of Maharshi Sandipani that Lord Krishna became known as Jagatguru - the universal teacher.
CM Yadav added that today, India is once again reconnecting with its rich and proud heritage. He also extended his warm greetings to everyone on the occasion of Guru Purnima.

Descendants of Maharshi Sandipani and the temple priests shared that every year, special events are held at the ashram of Guru Purnima. This year too, special morning prayers and Panchamrit Abhishek were performed. Students beginning their education also worshipped slates, following traditional customs.
The event was attended by MLA Anil Jain Kalukheda, Sanjay Agrawal, Rajpal Singh Sisodia, other officials, and local citizens.
