Under the divine guidance of His Holiness Ashutosh Maharaj Ji, DJJS Nature Conservation program, Sanrakshan, has been celebrating the hour since last 5 years across the DJJS network of branches in India. At DJJS, Earth Hour is not just an event to turn out lights, but it is an occasion when lakhs of disciples of His Holiness across the country spend an hour meditating to spiritually re- energise the earth. The unique initiative carved by His Holiness, is actually revival of the Vedic methodology followed by sages and seers who realized oneness with cosmos in deep meditation and dedicated their spiritual energy to maintain cosmic balance as well as lived lives which were pro- environmental.

Before immersing into the inner realms by way of spiritual meditation, these enlightened MEMR Nature Conservators undertook an hour long candle march at Rakh Bagh, Near Guru Nanak Stadium, Jagron Bridge, from 7:30- 8:30pm on 28 March 2015.
