Sadguru Venabharati Maharaj
1008 Shri Mahant Tapomurti Sadguru Venabharati Maharaj is a divine soul who has dedicated her entire life for global welfare and is relentlessly working towards it since the year 2000. On divine guidance from Shri Shri Gajanan Maharaj, the incarnation of Lord Hanuman, Gurudev took the vow of sanyas (asceticism) in the year 2000 and has been carrying the baton of Ramkarya ever since. The Shankaracharya of Kashi took note of Gurudev’s selfless spiritual work and invited her to the holy city of Kashi. In the presence of many sanyasis, seers, saints, sages, Gurudev was felicitated by the respected Shankaracharya with the title of '1008 Shri Mahant Tapomurti Paramahansa Sadguru Venbharati Maharaj' and was presented with the Raj Dand, Raj Chhatra, Raj Mukut & Charan Padukas. Shri Sagaranand Saraswati Maharaj & Shri Ganeshanand Saraswati Maharaj Panchayati Anand Akhada, Trimbakeshwar, conferred Gurudev with the title of "Adhyatma Dnyan Shiromani" which means someone who has a very high authority when it comes to spiritual knowledge. Shri Gurudev is the first female sanyasi in Maharashtra to receive the Raj Dand.
Another speciality of Shri Gurudev is that she has undertaken bhiksha vrata and performed strong penance from the year 2000. For the last several years, Gurudev has been conducting satsangs, spiritual discourses, narrations, parayanas, lectures in villages, walking barefoot, to make people aware of the importance of spiritual culture that has been disappearing in Kali Yuga. Through this, true spirituality is being preached to the masses in simple language. The purpose of these satsangs is global welfare and peace. Till date, Gurudev has delivered more than 3 lakh spiritual discourses across India. In 2015, Shri Gurudev established “Shri Kapikul Siddhapeetham" in the holy area of Panchavati in Nashik. This ashram has been designed very beautifully & creatively so that one can get atleast a few moments of spiritual peace in today’s stressful lifestyle. In this sacred space, you can experience divine union & heavenly bliss. We get to see a unique & marvelous confluence of spirituality and science in this holy ashram.
