Himaitpur ((ベンガル語:হেমায়েতপুর)) is a small village in the Pabna District of Bangladesh. It is situated on the bank of Padma river. This is a birthplace of Sri Sri Thakur Anukulchandra. He initiated a spiritual movement in Bangladesh which subsequently spread to India. He preached the simplicity of life and attainment of high spiritual realization. He never advocated austerity and instead promoted the normal way of life through which self-realization could be attained. He was a great physician, educationist and social reformer, who influenced great leaders of his time. Mahatma Gandhi visited him in Himaitpur as did other leaders, to seek his views and draw inspiration for creating a new India. He had built a philanthropic organization called 'Satsang' in Himaitpur. Sri Sri Thakur Anukulchandra left Himaitpur and came to Deoghar, Jharkhand, India on 1 September 1946 and in 1947 the partition of India happened. The Satsang buildings of Sri Sri Thakur were taken over by the then Eastern Pakistan (Now Bangladesh) Government and turned into Government Mental Hospital. Hemayetpur has the only Government mental hospital in Bangladesh. Many people misuse the name 'Hemayetpur' for people who are too smart. This has been a long lasting tradition among Bangladeshis. ==See also== * List of villages in Bangladesh 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hemayetpur」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
