    Yuga Purusottom Sri Sri Thakur Anukulchandra (14 September 1888 – 27 January 1969), popularly known as Sree Sree Thakur, was a physician, a philosopher, a spiritual leader[1][2][3] and the founder of Satsang, in Deoghar.[4][5] He was born in a Brahmin family.[6]

    Early life and service[edit]

    Yuga purusottom Sri Sri thakur anukul chandra

    Anukulchandra Chakravarty was born in the Himaitpur village of Pabna district of East Bengal, British India which is now a part of Bangladesh. Sivachandra Chakravarty and Monomohini Devi were his father and mother respectively. As a young medical student in Calcutta, Anukulchandra started serving and treating the slum dwellers in 1911. After six years of study, he came back to Himaitpur and began to practice medicine.[7]

    In 1913, Anukulchandra was spiritually initiated by his mother. After his initiation, he along with his friends and companions started doing intense kirtan. During kirtan, he often went into a state of trance, fell on the ground unconsciously and uttered messages in that condition. His going into trance during kirtan, delivering holy messages during trance and the devotion of those around him started attracting many more people. As a number of people came to his village to visit him began to settle permanently, gradually his village home was converted into an ashram.[citation needed]

    Anukulchandra Chakravarty's service to the people as a doctor, his speaking in tongues in a state of trance as well as his advice and guidance to his followers helped him secure a position as a religious leader. The personality, life and teachings of Thakur Anukulchandra mediates between science and spirituality, personal affirmation and self-transformation, individualism and social commitment has put him in the class of prophetsoravatars of the Indian religious tradition.[citation needed] His devotees address him as Yuga Purushottam or the Prophet of the modern age.[8] on the other hand he is the founder of "satsanga" at deoghar in Bihar now Jharkhand.

    Death[edit]

    Anukulchandra died on 27 January 1969. The Government of India released a commemorative postage stamp, in 1987.[9]
