Shri Guru Ravidas Mission London

Shri Guru Ravidas Mission London

The Shri Guru Ravidas Mission London (originally known as Shri Guru Ravidas Sabha – East London) is a registered religious charity.

The members of this mission believe in Guru Ravidas as their founder. The Mission is dedicated to promoting and propagate the philosophy of the Ravidasi religion and fighting against discrimination against the religion, as well as fighting for its recognition as an Independent Religion. This is largely due to the insistence of Sikh organisations on the lack of independence of Ravidasias outside of the Sikh faith, and also the lack of recognition within the Hindu religious community who view them as a path within the Sant tradition.
