Gajanan Maharaj Sansthan Prasad by Post Shegaon: How It Works
Quick Answer: Gajanan Maharaj Sansthan prasad by post Shegaon begins with a cheque, Demand Draft or EMO sent to the Sansthan. Tell the office what you wish to receive — Shri’s books, a photo, holy Angara or cloth prasad — and a donation of ₹500 or more brings cloth prasad with an 80G receipt. The payee name and postal address are not published, so confirm both first through the Sansthan Shegaon contact number page.
Not every devotee can reach Shegaon when the heart calls. Work, health, age or simple distance keeps many families at home, yet they still long for something of Maharaj to keep in the puja room. If that is you, this guide from Shri Gajanan Maharaj Sansthan Bhakta Niwas explains how prasad by post Shegaon requests work, in plain words. Everything here follows what the Sansthan in Shegaon, Dist. Buldhana, Maharashtra has officially published on gajananmaharaj.org, and where a detail has not been published, we say so openly instead of guessing.
What does the Sansthan send by post?
Four things go out by post, and you decide which of them you would like to receive.
- Shri’s books and literature — no title list is published, so ask the office what is available.
- A photo of Shri — something to place in your home mandir.
- Holy Angara — looked after by a dedicated Prasad and Angara department, one of the Sansthan’s facilities for pilgrims.
- Cloth prasad — given for donations of ₹500 onwards. Mahaprasad meals are a different matter, covered in our local food and prasad guide.
Name every item you want in your letter — books, photo, Angara or cloth prasad.
How do I request prasad by post?
Prasad by post Shegaon starts with a payment sent through the post — a cheque, a Demand Draft or an EMO (Electronic Money Order). Those are the only three methods the Sansthan names.
- Decide your items — books, photo, Angara, cloth prasad, or whichever combination you wish.
- Choose your amount — ₹500 or more if you want the cloth prasad and the 80G receipt.
- Prepare the payment — a cheque, DD or EMO, made out in the name the office gives you.
- Post it with a clear letter — your full address with PIN code, plus the list of items. Keep your proof of posting.
No phone or WhatsApp method is published for these requests. The e-donation portal serves general daan seva, so ask the office before using it for prasad.
Confirm the payee name and postal address before the payment leaves your hands.
What does a ₹500 donation bring?
A donation of ₹500 or more brings cloth prasad and a receipt bearing the 80G stamp, which reflects Income Tax exemption.
| Item | What the Sansthan publishes |
|---|---|
| Cloth prasad | Donations of ₹500 onwards |
| 80G receipt | Sent with the prasad, ₹500 onwards |
| Books, photo, Angara | As you wish — confirm any amount with the office |
There is a quiet extra blessing too. Donors of ₹500 and above are recorded in the Sansthan’s computer system and invited to important festivals.
Keep the 80G receipt safe — it is your proof of donation.
What should I check before posting a cheque?
The published postal section leaves a few points open, so settle them with the office through the contact page before you post anything.
- Payee name and address — not published.
- Postage — no separate fee is mentioned officially.
- Delivery time — no timeline is published, so please be patient.
- Delivery area — ask whether your address is covered.
If someone offers to arrange all this for a fee, pause and read our local help verification guide first.
Official channels only — no agents, no third-party confirmations.
What if I can travel to Shegaon instead?
If your health and calendar allow, nothing replaces standing before Maharaj yourself.
- Darshan — see the darshan timing guide, or the live online darshan guide if you cannot travel.
- Stay — look at the rooms page, then enquire on the booking page or the official WhatsApp number.
- Festival days — crowds rise, so read booking during Prakat Din before you plan.
WhatsApp is for room bookings only — postal prasad requests go to the Sansthan.
