Param Pujya Sant Shree Laxman Chaitanya Bapuji Maharaj
A divine soul who attained the Light of all lights and established our sacred mission
Brahmlin Param Pujya Sant Shree Laxman Chaitanya Bapuji Maharaj
Guru-Founder
Sacred Life Journey
Born into a humble family in the small village of Pal, he received education up to 4th standard in the same village. Due to spiritual impressions from past lives, at the tender age of 14, he renounced his home and family to walk the path of spirituality.
Moved by an intense desire to attain the Supreme Being, he secluded himself on a hillock near his village and lived an ascetic life for seventeen years, surviving on fruits alone while deeply engaged in meditation and spiritual practice.
Divine Guidance & Guru Tradition
During his period of intense sadhana, he would often receive divine guidance and inspiration from a higher divine power in the form of Sadguru Bhagwan Shri Ramdevji Baba.
However, honoring the tradition of accepting a living master, he later, by divine indication, accepted Sant Shri Mahadev Chaitanya Maharaj (also known as Shri Dagduji Bapu) as his Sadguru.
Divine Realization & Silent Period
As a result of the intensity of his spiritual practice, he had the divine vision of the Supreme Being in the form of Divine Light. Immersed in the supreme bliss of this realization, he remained in silence for four years.
He broke his silence during a 5-day Vishnu Mahayajna, in the divine presence of his Grand-Guru Mahamandaleshwar Tyagmurti Shri Swami Ganeshanand Puri Ji Maharaj (Sadhana Sadan, Kankhal, Haridwar).

Final Divine Teaching
"He kept his divine realization confidential for a long time. But on this day, he shared it with his devoted brahmacharis:"
Legacy & Succession
Before attaining Mahasamadhi, appointed Pujya Shri Gopal Chaitanya Babaji as spiritual and organizational head of Akhil Bharatiya Chaitanya Sadhak Parivar, Pal Ashram, and Charukeshwar Ashram.
"A yogi in life, a yogi in liberation."
Final Divine Message
"In my sadhana, I experienced the Light; now that Light is more visible to me. You may call it God or Energy. In the Shrimad Bhagavad Gita, the Lord said: 'Jyotishām api tat jyotiḥ' – 'That is the Light of all lights.' Therefore, we too consider it as God. All of you should strive to reach that Light. Whatever you receive beyond that depends on your own efforts. I have attained up to that Light."

Continuing the sacred mission with unwavering devotion and dedicated service
Devoted Disciple & Early Life
Started serving Param Pujya Bapuji at the young age of 16. Witnessing his unwavering devotion to the Guru and deep reverence for God, Sadguru Param Pujya Bapuji initiated him into Naishtik Brahmacharya (lifelong celibacy).
Following his Guru's instructions, he undertook spiritual practice in silence through a nine-year vow of silence (maun vrat), immersed with deep curiosity and determination.
Divine Grace & Spiritual Realization
During this intense spiritual period, through the grace of the Guru, he experienced divine realizations.
Later, during the Ujjain Simhastha Kumbh festival in 2004, despite his personal reluctance, he ended his silence in obedience to Param Pujya Bapuji's command.
"Guru's command alone is the highest welfare for a disciple."
Mission Continuation & Leadership
Following Bapuji's instructions, he began conducting discourses and satsangs for public upliftment. He resolved to spread the divine knowledge received through grace, with the same selfless spirit, as taught by Param Pujya Bapuji.
To complete the unfinished construction of the temple envisioned by his Guru, Babaji demonstrated great commitment. On the first Punyatithi (death anniversary) of Param Pujya Bapuji, he successfully conducted the Pran Pratishtha (installation ceremony) of the divine deities in Shri Hari Mandir, in the presence of many saints and thousands of devotees.
