About Swamiji
Swamiji completed his primary education in the village itself, after which he studied for his higher classes in Ratnagiri and higher secondary classes in Mumbai at the Aryan Education society's High School. It was at this school that he was first introduced to religious and spiritual texts. At 18, he got drawn towards Mahatma Gandhi's freedom movement.
At the age of 20, his life took a drastic turn when he took initiation from Sadguru Babamaharaj Vaidya of Pune. Then on he began his spiritual journey and working towards the better comprehension of his guru's philosophies. On his return to Pawas, he focused his mind on a profound study of Bhagavad Geeta, Dasbodh and Dnyaneshwari and undertook religious austerity. He soon built a huge following of people who were influenced by what he said and preached. He soon came to be known as Swamiji. The guru mantra of Ram Krishna Hari given by Swamiji is still chanted even today. He took to self-immolation on 15th August 1974.
