One with ceaseless Brahma-sthiti

In the heart of Gondal is BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir which is the cremation site of Gunatitanand Swami, and serves as a breathing memorial of the Anaadi Mool Aksharmoorti. Yogi bapa felt at home when here. It is well known that Yogi bapa shared a special bond with Gondal’s Ghanshyam Maharaj and Aksharderi. In such a divine setting there would never be a dearth of katha-varta, never a dull moment in Yogi bapa’s presence.

At one such gathering of devotees experiencing the blissful presence of Yogi bapa, he exclaimed, “Aho… ho..! Bhagatji Maharaj posessed such ceaseless Brahma-sthiti! In present generation, our Mahant Swami, Sadhu Keshavjivandas is a befitting example of the same ceaseless Brahma-sthiti!”

It is easy to overlook such potential in an unassuming quiet saint like Mahant Swami. Which is why Yogi bapa gestured towards Mahant Swami, to reinforce what he just said.

Well, a word to the wise is sufficient, whereas Yogi bapa didn’t just hint but said it aloud and clear. Even then, wonder how many took his word at face value. Today, it is hard not to notice the ceaseless Brahma-sthiti of Mahant Swami. He remains unaffected and in supreme state of bliss even in the midst of a strenuous load of travel and at times of turmoil. Not only that, but as soon as one comes in contact with Him even they get transported to a supreme state of bliss. It is here to be experienced.
