Aksharbrahman Gunatitanand Swami: Life and Work

by Sadhu Mangalnidhidas (Translator), Harshadrai Tribhuvandas Dave (Author of Gujarati Text)

Born in the rustic village of Bhadra, in the Saurashtra region of Gujarat, Mulji Sharma was exceptional from a young age. Due to his sharp mind, diligent endeavors and deep understanding of all things spiritual he was respected by all.

His innate detachment from worldly life was evident in his every deed and word. So, when he received the call from Bhagwan Swaminarayan to renounce and become a sadhu, he did not hesitate. At the conclusion of the historic yagna in Dabhan in 1866, Bhagwan Swaminarayan initiated Mulji Sharma into the sadhu-fold and named him Gunatitanand Swami. He also identified Gunatitanand Swami as the manifest form of Aksharbrahman, his divine abode and ideal devotee.

Gunatitanand Swami went on to reveal the glory of Bhagwan Swaminarayan as Supreme God and guided countless people to the heights of spirituality. His simple, saintly and humble life of devotion and service and the wisdom of his insightful discourses are beacons for all spiritual aspirants.

Aksharbrahma Gunatitanand Swami: Life and Work, in two parts, is an extensive biography of his exemplary life and selfless works.
