Jayrambati is a village, in the jurisdiction
of Kotulpur police station in the Bishnupur subdivision in Bankura district,
West Bengal, India.
Jayrambati
is three miles to the west of Kamarpukur and two miles to the east of Sihar -
the birthplace of
Hridayrama Mukhopadhyaya, a nephew of Sri Ramakrishna.
Bishnupur and Arambag are twenty-seven miles and twelve miles distant
respectively from Jayrambati.
The
village, surrounded on all sides by green pastures, untrimmed meadows, trees
and shrubs, has a rural atmosphere. The area that extends for about half a mile
between this village and the Amodar is very fertile and yields all kinds of
vegetables and other agricultural products.
The
village hosts a temple of Vivekananda monks and the orphanage school for boys
that the monks operate. The school hosts around 200 boys, providing them with
an education through junior high.
After
the birth of Sarada Devi, who is worshipped as Holy Mother, the spiritual
consort of Ramakrishna, the village began to show signs of prosperity which was
not so much in evidence before her advent. The main source of irrigation of the
nearby cultivable lands is the big lake called 'Mother's Tank' where the
visitors and the village-folk take their bath and get refreshed. It is said
that the Holy Mother in her girlhood used to cut grass for cows in neck-deep
water from this very tank. At present water is supplied to this reservoir from
the river Amodar by means of an electric pump and is used for the irrigation of
the surrounding fields.
There
is another tank called 'Barunjjey Pukur' (i.e. Banerji's tank) which lies on
the south-eastern corner of this village and is surrounded with palmyra trees.
