Gayatri Devi

Gayatri Devi, born on May 23, 1919, in London, United Kingdom, was a prominent figure in Indian royalty, politics, and fashion. She was the third Maharani consort of Jaipur from 1940 to 1949 through her marriage to Maharaja Sawai Man Singh II. She has left a significant impact on the cultural and political landscape of India. Gayatri Devi was a trailblazer in Indian politics. In the 1962 parliamentary election, she achieved a historic victory, securing the largest majority vote of any candidate. A member of the Swatantra Party, she served as a prominent critic of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's government during her 12-year political career. Despite facing political challenges, including imprisonment during the Emergency in 1975, she remained steadfast in her commitment to public service. Her commitment to women's empowerment extended beyond politics. She established schools in Jaipur, including the Maharani Gayatri Devi Girls School, providing education to thousands of girls and women. Her passion for education was evident in her efforts to promote the first steps of development through learning. An avid sports woman, she excelled in polo and shooting, reflecting her adventurous spirit. She was also known for her love of automobiles and was credited with bringing the first W126 model to India.  Maharani Gayatri Devi was listed as one of Vogue's 10 most beautiful women. Crediting her mother as her style inspiration, she said, “she was one of the most fashionable, most independent and most modern Maharanis ever. She always knew the best places to buy anything and she shopped all over the world.” Gayatri was known for her signature chiffon saris, crafted in Lyon, France, which were adorned with pearls and emeralds.  After retiring from politics, Gayatri Devi spent her later years in a quiet life on her large estate, engaging in hobbies and leisure. She passed away on July 29, 2009, due to paralytic ileus and a lung infection

Due to the dowry system in human society today, even the poorest of the poor are facing difficulty in living their lives.

On the other hand, the disciples of Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj are living a happy life without dowry by getting married.

Dowry free India is being made under the guidance of Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj Ji.

''How to get married''

Like Shri Devi Durga ji had married her three sons (Shri Brahma ji, Shri Vishnu ji and Shri Shiv ji). My (Saint Rampal ji) followers do the same. The 17-minute long Asur Nikandan is Ramaini. In place of rounds, it is chanted which is better and more beneficial than crore Gayatri Mantras. In which there is an invocation and prayer of praise to all the Gods and Goddesses of the world and the Supreme God. Due to which all the powers always protect and help that married couple. This will save the daughter. It will become an easier way to live.

- Jagatguru Tatvdarshi Saint Rampal Ji Maharaj.
