Our Leadership

Kripalu Mahila Mahavidyalaya is fortunate to be guided by the wisdom and dedication of its distinguished leadership. The institution has been shaped by the visionary stewardship of H.H.Sushri Dr. Vishakha Tripathi Ji, whose tenure as the President laid a strong foundation of academic discipline and institutional growth. This legacy is being carried forward under the dynamic leadership of HH Sushri Dr. Shyama Tripathi Ji, the current President, who continues to strengthen the college’s commitment to quality education and women’s empowerment. Alongside them, the college is inspired and guided by the senior mentorship of our Patron HH Sushri Dr. Krishna Tripathi Ji, whose continued involvement and participation in the activities, both large and small, serves as a constant source of encouragement. Together, the three leaders’ vision, dedication, and hands-on support ensure that the institution remains vibrant, values-driven, and steadfast in its mission to empower women through education.

HH Sushri Dr. Viskhakha Tripathi Ji - Former President

Sushri Dr. Vishakha Tripathi Ji, affectionately known as Badi Didi, was the president of Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat (Kripalu Dham, Mangarh) and its charitable arms Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat Education and Jagadguru Kripalu Chikitsalaya. As the eldest daughter to Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj, she devoted her life towards advancing her father and Guru’s divine mission of spiritual upliftment, educational advancement, and selfless service to humanity. Under her visionary leadership, Jagadguru Kripalu Parishataugmented into a global spiritual and humanitarian organisation. She guided hundreds of JKP centers across India and worldwide, spreading the timeless teachings of Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj to millions.

From the younger age, Badi Didi was known for her independence, innocence, and cheerful nature. Guided by strong spiritual values and discipline, she pursued higher education at Agra, earning a Master’s degree in Arts with a specialisationin Painting. A gifted artist and an avid photographer, her creative expression reflected depth, sensitivity, and devotion.

Badi Didi’s deep compassion was especially evident in her commitment to girls’ education. In 1978, when girls’ education in the region was almost non-existent, she took charge of JKPE in Kunda, Pratapgarh. This visionary initiative brought lasting social change, ensuring quality education for girls, regardless of their financial background. Through JKPE, thousands of underprivileged girls discovered confidence, independence, and purpose. With access to free and quality education, modern resources, and extracurricular opportunities, many graduates went on to become teachers, entrepreneurs, and professionals—helping their families rise above extreme poverty and contributing meaningfully to the society.

Alongside education, Badi Didi made an extraordinary impact in the field of healthcare by establishing Jagadguru Kripalu Chikitsalayaand continuing the vision of selfless service to humanity of Shri Maharaj Ji. Through JKP’s charitable hospitals, millions of people received free, high-quality medical care supported by state-of-the-art infrastructure. Her compassion continues to be felt in every patient healed and every life touched.

In recognition of her selfless service and leadership, Badi Didi received numerous prestigious honors, including:

  • Mother Teresa Excellence Award (2013)

  • Nelson Mandela Peace Award (2014)

  • Rajiv Gandhi Global Excellence Award (2013)

  • Nari Award (2013)

  • World Icon Award (2018)

  • Honorary D.Litt., The Open International University for Complementary Medicines, Colombo.

H.H. Dr. Vishakha Tripathi Ji’s life stands as a shining example of devotion, humility, and selfless service. Through world-class educational institutions, charitable hospitals, and renowned temples, she not only transformed countless lives but also glorified the priceless wisdom of her Guru, Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj.

Education refines human life by helping individuals distinguish between right and wrong and by guiding them in the art of leading an ideal life. Truly, those who possess the key to education can gracefully overcome even the most difficult circumstances and challenges of life.

In today’s world, where education has become an integral part of life, rural areas still suffer from a severe lack of educational facilities. Girls, in particular, are often deprived of the opportunity to study. Many are married off at a younger age and are burdened with the responsibilities of domestic life. Due to a lack of education, they are unable to face life’s challenges and often live with helplessness and despair.

Taking into account the plight of women and with the noble aim of uplifting them, Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj, who awakened spiritual consciousness across the world and spread the message of VasudhaivaKutumbakam (the world is one family), established Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat Education. Under this initiative, three educational institutions are currently being run, where girls receive free education from primary level to post-graduation. This not only promotes their all-round development but also instills in them confidence and a spirit of self-reliance and self-defense, empowering them to walk their life path with dignity and strength. Kripalu Mahila Mahavidyalaya is one of these institutions that impart higher education under the initiative.

In today’s tainted educational climate, where many self-proclaimed providers exploit the futures of students by commercialisingeducation and running it as a business, Shri Maharaj Ji bestowed an extraordinary blessing upon the families of this region by offering free education. Following the divine guidance and teachings of Shri Maharaj Ji, we remain committed to continuously advancing these institutions toward greater heights of excellence. Thanks to the tireless efforts of our experienced and dedicated teachers, our institutions have consistently delivered excellent academic results — a reflection to our commitment towards the all-round development of each student.

From the Pen of Our Dear Manjhi Didi

Education is the ornament of the saintly society. It not only provides knowledge in life but also imparts humility.

Woman is the mother — under the shade of her motherhood, she nurtures her child and enables him to move forward in life. Woman is that unit of the society from where human life begins. Therefore, educating women is absolutely essential for building any developed nation.

Keeping in mind the importance of women's education, Shri Maharaj Ji established such educational institutions for the upliftment and all-round development of women, where they are provided free education from primary to postgraduate classes. Kripalu Mahila Mahavidyalaya is an integral part of this initiative, playing the role of imparting degree-level education. Along with the academic curriculum, they are also trained in various types of arts.

It is our great fortune that we have received the guidance of such a celestial personality who is the fifth original Jagadguru of the world, whose divine wisdom has illuminated not only in India, but the entire world. From my own life experience, I have realisedthat materialism and spirituality are complementary to each other. If there is no spirituality in life, then even a materially successful person cannot be truly content. And in the absence of material resources, it is extremely difficult for life to function smoothly.

This verse from Shrimad Bhagavatam, which is the motto of our educational institution — "Sa Vidya Tanmatiryaya" — means true knowledge is that which leads to the love for God. To love God means to awaken goodwill in the heart for all living beings. We are all children of the same God, and this feeling cannot awake until there is spiritual awareness in our lives. Therefore, when the garden of material life is adorned with the fragrant flowers of spirituality, a unique peace is attained in life.

I extend my congratulations to the principal, faculty, staff, and students of the institution, and I hope all of them will continue to contribute to the upliftment of the institution with the same spirit as Shri Maharaj Ji guided us with. I humbly request them to always keep this temple of knowledge enriched with divine faith, hard work, honesty, and the spirit of universal brotherhood, so that the entire society and nation may benefit — and with God's grace, this educational institution may continue to progress on the path of success day by day. This is my heartfelt wish and my message.

In the present time, although a large number of schools have been established and can be seen at almost every crossroads like commercial shops, only a few educational institutions truly uphold the real meaning of the word “school.” In today’s polluted educational environment, where so-called education contractors play with the future of students by allowing unfair practices and expanding their businesses for monetary gain, Shri Maharaj Ji, on the other hand, has shown selfless compassion toward the parents of the region by providing free education.

Understanding the true importance of education, Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj established a Girls’ Primary School, Girls’ Intermediate College, and a Women’s Degree College at Kunda, the tehsil headquarters of his home district Pratapgarh, with the noble aim of providing quality education to girls and paving the way for a bright future for them.

In all these institutions, students have been receiving completely free education for several years, along with free study materials and uniforms. At present, higher education programs such as B.A., B.Sc., B.Ed., and M.A. are being conducted smoothly with the support of modern technological facilities. By the grace of Shri Maharaj Ji, this institution is continuously progressing on the path of development.

Finally, I express my sincere gratitude to the Principal, teachers, and non-teaching staff of this educational institution, and I bless the students, encouraging them to pursue their studies with complete dedication and sincerity so that they may fulfill the dreams of Shri Maharaj Ji.
