Yogiji Maharaj, the fourth spiritual successor of Bhagwan Swaminarayan, was born in Dhari in 1892. He seemed like a simple sadhu but his inner simplicity was vast. His faith and spirituality led the philosophy of Akshar Purushottam beyond India, to various corners of the globe. Yogiji Maharaj is the visionary, inspirer, and initiator of the organization’s weekly children and youth activities. His positive attitude and engaging smile transformed the hearts of thousands of people.

Guru Purnima is a special day for devotees to honor their guru and the importance of a guru in their lives. A guru leads one from the darkness of maya to the light of wisdom and understanding. Join us in offering guru bhakti, our devotion, and earnest prayers, to Mahant Swami Maharaj, with bhajans, video presentations and spiritual discourses by swamis and youth.
