    Tulasidas Jayanti

    तुलसीदास जयन्ती

    Exclusive audio

    Today is the birth anniversary of Tulsidas Prabhu (1532-1623), a seeker of very influential ideas in social balance and a full exponent of Vedic Sanatan Hindu philosophy, religious narrator, and poet. He is also known as Goswami Tulsidas.


    Who is Tulasidas?

    Tulsidas Prabhu is especially famous on this earth for his devotion to Lord Rama and his fragmentary Ramacharitramanas and the new chapter of Sanskrit Ramayana (Tulsidaskrit Ramayana). Even though it has been a long time since Tulsidas Prabhu left this world, rhyming expression created by him, the Ramayana of Tulsidas Prabhu's period language can still be seen in various temples, monasteries, temples, libraries, and schools.

    Contribution of Tulasidas to Sanatana philosophy?

    Poet Tulsidas is considered to be the reincarnation of Valmiki and still, the verses of Hanuman Chalisa written by him are worshiped, sung, and recited by Vedic Sanatan Hindu followers all over the world including Nepal and India. Tulsidas spent most of his life in Varanasi, Banaras. A ghat in Vanaras is still named after Tulsidas.


    Tulsidas is a source of inspiration for many even today, living a normal life but as an author of unusual creations and works. Even 100 years after Tulsidas's demise, his follower Priyadas wrote a devotional essay on Tulsidas' death and seven wonderful spiritual experiences in his life. Similarly, another devotee, Nabhadas, has described Tulsidas as an incarnation of Valmiki in his work Bhaktakamal.

    Hamro Patro - Connecting Nepali Communities
    Hamro Patro is one of the first Nepali app to include Nepali Patro, launched in 2010. We started with a Nepali Calendar mobile app to help Nepalese living abroad stay in touch with Nepalese festivals and important dates in Nepali calendar year. Later on, to cater to the people who couldn’t type in Nepali using fonts like Preeti, Ganesh and even Nepali Unicode, we built nepali mobile keyboard called Hamro Nepali keyboard.
