==History==&lt;br /&gt;
The Delhi mission has its origins in the Ramakrishna Math which was opened in a rented house on 966, [[Garstin Bastion Road, New Delhi|Garstin Baston Road]] in 1927. The construction work on the present premises started in 1934 after the first foundation brick was brought in from [[Belur Math]] to Delhi, and consecrated by [[Swami Shivananda]], a direct disciple of [[Sri Ramakrishna]] and the second President of the Ramakrishna Math and the Ramakrishna Mission. Thereafter the Delhi Centre was formally opened in 1935. &amp;lt;ref name=dec/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=abt&amp;gt;{{cite web | title =A bout Us|publisher= Ramakrishna Mission, Delhi | url = http://www.rkmdelhi.org/about-us/delhi-mission/ | accessdate = 2013-11-25 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; [[Swami Ranganathananda]], who later became the 13th president of the Ramakrishna Math and Mission and was awarded the [[Padma Vibhushan]], served as the secretary at the Delhi Mission from 1949 to 1962.

&lt;br /&gt;
A center called Sri Ramakrishna Math, was opened at Delhi in a rented house at 966, [[Garstin Bastion Road, New Delhi|Garstin Baston Road]]. The dedication ceremony was performed on the morning of May 4, 1927 by Swami Ambikananda in the presence of a large number of devotees. Soon after, Swami Nirgunananda took charge of supervision of the two study circles organized at Raisina and Timarpur. Besides classes and lectures, celebrations of birthdays of great religious teachers form an important feature of the activities of the center, while a library with reading room for general public was set up from the very beginning.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first brick of the foundation was consecrated by Swami Shivananda, a direct disciple of Sri Ramakrishna and the second President of the Ramakrishna Math and the Ramakrishna Mission. The brick was carried from Belur Math to Delhi and the foundation ceremony was held on 15th February, 1934. A building was constructed and ceremonially opened on December 12, 1934. However, the Delhi Centre of the Ramakrishna Mission was actually established in its own premises on the 16th Oct, 1935.&lt;br /&gt;

The plan of a beautiful temple with the main shrine of 20´x20´ and the natmandir (sanctum santorum) of 31´x 60´ was designed and funds were collected. The foundation stone of the temple was laid by Swami Shankarananda, the seventh President of the Ramakrisha Order, on November 5, 1954, as a part of the Holy Mother’s Birth Centenary Celebrations.&lt;br /&gt;
