In his lifetime Fakir Lalon Shaiji would spend the whole night on an open field with his disciples in song and music on the night of the Dol Purnima of the month of Falgun. In that tradition, the Lalon Academy still holds a three-day Lalon remembrance utsab every year on the night of the Dol Purnima of Falgun.
This year's Lalon remembrance utsab has been titled “Satya Bol Supathe Chol, Ore Amar Mon” (Speak the truth, walk the right path, O my mind). The invitation card of the Lalon Academy is reproduced below verbatim:
