‘મહામાનવ’ – દરેક હ્રદયની વેદના અનુભવતું હૃદય!

One evening, several gurubhakts were doing bhakti in Param Gurudev’s sanidhya. Param Gurudev never misses a chance to bless those around him with inspiration for their aatmakalyan. That day, his eyes fell on a gurubhakt, and Param Gurudev asked him, “Your hands were joined throughout the bhakti for the last 28 minutes! Do you know what will be the result of this gesture?”

How many times have we experienced situations where someone junior to us disobeys us, and we become REACTIVE because our ego gets hurt? It was December 2017, and Param Gurudev was in Deolali. He was blessing one and all with profound vachanas from the Aagam scriptures.

The second wave of COVID-19 hit India in 2021. From 50+ sant-satijis in Param Gurudev’s shishya samuday, 36 of them contacted corona and were shifted from Vadia to Rajkot’s Uvasaggahar Sadhana Bhavan. Param Gurudev’s stay was safely organised in the newly-constructed Shyam Prabhu Niketan Apartment nearby.

An anushasak to millions of people across the world, Param Gurudev is most renowned for his love for discipline. And his commitment to discipline is put into implementation by one and all only when his own life is a reflection of that discipline at each and every step.

For Guru, every shishya is like a child. And the one who experiences Guru’s care, never yearns for affection or love from anyone else in this entire world! Param Gurudev was in Punadi, Kutch, during the 2022 chaturmas. His selfless love and boundless grace had won the hearts of innumerable villagers who were not Jain by birth.
