His Holiness Brahmrishi Sri Guruvanandji ji, (Gurudev), the Divine spiritual master par excellence, the embodiment of Sat (Divine Existence), Chit (Consciousness) and Ananda (Bliss), entered the terrestrial sphere on 12 January 1941 in the renowned land of sages, saints, avatars and gurus, that is, in the blessed land of Bharata (India), with the specific mission of bringing the message of Divine Life to the toiling and suffering masses.
The Divinity that entered the immaculate sanctified human embryo was destined to become the Divine Guru with the mission of imparting saving knowledge to all humanity.
His spiritual journey began at the age of just nine months old under miraculous circumstances when his spiritual mentor, Yogiraj Devaraha Baba (known as ‘ageless yogi’), saved his life from terminal illness. Baba took this child under his wings and nurtured him to supreme health and raised him with utmost care.
The child remained mute for twelve years till a miracle occurred on Saptami of Shardiya Navaratri when three Goddesses appeared in the child’s dream and bestowed the power of speech and supreme wisdom.
The child woke up shouting “Baba, Baba...” and thus started the child’s journey of spiritual dialogue with his spiritual mentor Shri Devaraha Baba.
Academically to his distinction, Gurudev graduated with B.Sc. (Honours) in Physics, B.Tech. in Electrical Engineering from the highly reputed institute, IIT (Kharagpur, India) followed with MA in Sanskrit, Vedas and Jyotisha and PhD in Astrology.
Further to his qualifications and achievements, he has participated in many international conferences including the “All Religion World Conference” where he was conferred with “The Best Personality” and “Gold Medal”.
He has also been conferred Jyotish Murmagya award by German Astrological Society. He has also been the Honorary Principal and Professor at various academic institutions including BHU (Banaras Hindu University).
A reputed scientist with the flavour of Spiritual upliftment from childhood was highly influenced by Swami Vivekananda and the teachings of Lord Mahavira.
He has the urge to see the inner connection between Science and Spirituality. Under the guidance of his Guru and through intense penance, he has awakened the Kundalini Shakti (primal energy coiled and located at the base of spine) resulting in acquiring of a range of Siddhies (Divine powers) and Spiritual Enlightenment. In a nutshell, Science meets Spirituality and the Scientist becomes the Saintist
Devaraha Baba predicted that Gurudev would achieve the heights of spirituality and render his life to heal and serve humanity. Today, Scientist turned Saintist is known as highly evolved Spiritual Master imbued with tremendous power, is a unique Divine Gift to humanity in the modern age of spiritual turmoil and tussle.
He is the embodiment of Love and Compassion, coupled with Humility and Simplicity, thus making him one of the most revered living saints in the current era.
He has the deep and practical understanding of the Vedas, the Bhagavad Gita, Astrology and other spiritual scriptures from Jainism, Sikhism, Christianity, Buddhism, and Islam. He has the unique capacity to impart a deep spiritual message in layman’s language that people can translate into their daily lives.
Invested with the divine energy and power; imbued with divine love and supreme compassion, in the last 45 years, He had travelled around the world covering 172 countries, helping the masses in raising human consciousness to the Supreme Consciousness through the path of Divine Love and Service to Society.
His transformative message to masses is Manava Seva is Madhava Seva (Service to Man is Service to God) and Daiva Preeti (Love for God), which he emphasises are the best spiritual practices for this age.
He does not want people to change their religion but to get better in their own religion. He believes that Religion should be the way
of life.
He strongly advocates that “Religion does not bind us, but rather frees us from all bondage of Karma (Deeds)”. He emphasises that Saints and Gurus should not give us a cult or a new religion but rather the correct way of life ensuring a smooth and successful transition from the worldly bondage of family and society towards and into the Almighty.
His teachings, preaching and blessings have the power to alter the direction and the very destiny of one’s life.
Once in his fold, he proved to his devotees that he knew what they were thinking and saying and doing when hundreds of miles away from him. Frequently he appeared wherever he was needed and rescued his devotees from the crisis.
If time and space permits, in the forthcoming issues, we will share some of the experiences of the devotees what benefits they have achieved from this Divine Soul walking on two feet. Such Miracles do not matter, what matters is the Source, which is beyond evolution.
Darshan is the powerful super conscious vibration that is present around an Enlightened Being at all times. Just as the Sun continuously radiates light, whether anybody is present to receive it or not, the enlightened consciousness is forever radiating its presence.
The auspicious moment when we are able to ‘catch’ it becomes the moment of Darshan for us. Just having a glimpse of the enlightened being is believed to cleanse the Karmas of many lifetimes and create deep and lasting transformation. Don’t miss once in lifetime opportunity to cleanse your Karmas and uplift yourselves spiritually as Gurudev ji would be radiating his Darshan in three major cities in New Zealand as follows:
