The New Jersey, USA Branch of Dakshineswar Ramkrishna Sangha Adyapeath was established in 1995. This branch extends the vision and ideas of Dakshineswar Ramkrishna Sangha Adyapeath, Kolkata, India to the residents of United States of America. 
This is how it all started. 

In the year 1994 Brahmachari Mural Bhai, secretary of Dakshineswar Ramkrishna Sangha Adyapeath, Kolkata came to New Jersey for the first time to spread the blessings of Adya Ma, and talk about its founder Sree Sree Annada Thakur . In the summer of 1996, he was joined by then President of the Sangha, late Brahmachari Siddheswar Bhai . They were overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of devotees of Adya Ma. Late that year Dakshineswar Ramkrishna Sangha Adyapeath, Kolkata authorized a similar organization to be formed here in New Jersey as its branch – first of its kind outside of India. On December 7th, 1996, DRSA, USA was formed with a temporary address of 296 Savoy Ave, Edison with twelve members. 
This was the beginning…

In August of 1998, the members, then thirty strong, took upon themselves to rent a permanent place for Adya Ma – 1219 Green Street ; Iselin, NJ became the first public place of worship in USA for Adya Ma. 
That was a monumental step forward…

DRSA, USA membership has grown to over hundred (125) since then. In 1999, DRSA celebrated Kali Puja with Brahmachari Subrata Bhai from Adyapeath, Kolkata performing the puja of Kali pratima that he himself had created here. In 2000, Br. Subrata Bhai performed the puja of Jagaddhatri pratima that also he created here. DRSA, USA has been staging Kali Puja and Jagaddhatri Puja ever since, with attendance increasing every year.
Through these years, DRSA, USA has firmly established itself as the branch of Dakshineswar Ramkrishna Sangha Adyapeath, Kolkata with blessings and support from the parent body. 
In January 2002 DRSA, USA acquired a one acre property in Franklin Township, NJ; establishing a priest house and a prayer hall. Adya Ma’s message needs to be propagated to every corner of the world to bring joy and peace to all.

Adya Ma’s blessings are with all of us.
DRSA, USA is currently planning for a bigger place to establish a mandir for Adya Ma.
This is our dream – this would be our future…
