Distinguished spiritual teacher and Upanishadic scholar Raseshwari Devi Ji received the Seva Samman Award on 23rd Feb at the 2026 Spiritual Conclave Odisha in recognition of her many years of service towards providing spiritual education and bringing about increased social awareness. The award was presented to her by Surama Padhy, Hon’ble Speaker of the Odisha Legislative Assembly in the company of many other distinguished individuals from the spiritual, public, and cultural sectors.
The Seva Samman Award recognizes Raseshwari Devi Ji's ongoing commitment to promoting the Upanishadic message to all people in various sectors through public talks, meditation programs, and other value-based programmes to help them experience their everyday lives with spirituality at the forefront. The conclave's organisers noted that she had increased awareness related to moral behaviour, self-discipline, and inner development for each of the participants through this outreach.
Hosting the event were MBC TV and BS TV with many eminent guests from politics and culture in Odisha. Pabitra Sounta, Mangu Khilla, and Golaka Mohapatra were just a few of them. Senior leaders such as Arabinda Dhali and Priyadarshi Mishra were also in attendance. Two Padma awardees, Sudarshan Sahoo and Adwaita Gadanayak, represent cultural harmony by their presence at the conclave.
As a devoted disciple of Jagadguru Kripalu Maharaj, Raseshwari Devi Ji began her spiritual path after finishing her higher studies in the subjects of mathematics and English. At the age of 22, on October 15, 1988, she took sannyas (a vow of renouncing material possessions) and dedicated her life to spreading Shri Krishna Bhakti (the practice of love for God through devotion) and the philosophy of the Upanishads (ancient Indian scriptures that explore the ultimate nature of reality). Rasedhwari Devi Ji has conducted over 300 spiritual programs in 140 cities and 11 states throughout the years; but has taken a more active role in Odisha, where she has set up 21 meditation centres and spiritual development centres under her guidance.
In recent years, she has extended her spiritual outreach through various digital media channels and has provided spiritual learning opportunities to a broader audience throughout the coastal and semi-urban areas of Odisha. Her new outreach programs for children and youth, such as Bal Sanskar Shivir (children's moral education camps) and Yuva Utthan Shivir (youth development camps), continue to engage children and youth through programs aimed at moral education, cultural awareness, and personal development. In December, she also had the honor of meeting with Droupadi Murmu, the Honourable President of India, to celebrate her Sanyas Diwas (the anniversary of someone taking the vow of sannyas).
Receiving the Seva Samman Award at Spiritual Conclave Odisha 2026 marks a breakthrough for Rasedhwari Devi Ji’s contribution to public and spiritual causes. Observers of this award view it as proof of her contribution to the advancement of spiritual education and community-based initiatives in the changing landscape of India's social development.
