What Dharma Saadhak Sadhus!


- Whose breath overflows with religion and holiness!

- Eye oyster, distance pearl- Acharya Shri Vatsalyadeep Suriji

- Another name of this Nitivijyaji grandfather was also Nityavijayaji. He was a disciple of Shri Butaraiji Maharaj. He was a jeweler originally from Surat.

Rameshbhai Bapalal Shah of Su Ratna is a great editor. Sometimes the religion of the heart brings articles that satisfy thirst.

The monsoon evening was descending.

In the main room of the resort of Bharuch, a scene is created that makes you want to see the gods. It's evening pasture but no one remembers it! Anupchand Malukchand is reciting Pannavana Sutra to tens of listeners and eighty listeners. Along with Muni Shri Manivijayji Maharaj, Shri Bapji Maharaj (Shri Siddhi Vijayji Maharaj at that time) and other sadhus.

One thing happened during the reading that its interpretation became a form of discussion. While exchanging those conversational texts from different scriptures, Shri Anupchand was saying that such a meaning is based on the meaning given in the Tattvarthadhigam commentary. Shri Manivijayji Maharaj's opinion differs. They argue in support of their views.

All the listeners are except Anupchand and Manivijay Maharaj. Anupchand is not ready to accept the alleged meaning of Maharajshree. Shri Manivijayji Maharaj does not accept the opinion of Anupchand. No one can reach a decision. In the end, Anupchandbhai suggests a way. 'Our Shri Munisuvrat Swami Bhagwan is awake. Their superintendent will decide the need. The decision will tell which of the two meanings is relevant. If it seems difficult, Shri Simandhar Swami will tell us the true meaning even by asking God. To make them in front of us, we do mass eighth (three fasts), chant. There will be a satisfactory decision. '

Considered. All agreed. The eighth began. Anupchandbhai, his seven classmates, five sisters and four sadhus were absorbed in Maharaj VIII and Japa. Daily Snatra Puja, Ashtaprakari Puja and Munisuvrat immersed in devotion to God throughout the day.

There was a room next to the upashraya where the listeners used to do night chanting, morning pratikrama-japa-dhyana-swadhyaya. Exactly on the morning of the fourth day, around half past three, everyone had a dream. The lines in the dream became clear and finally what Anupchandbhai meant is exactly what happened.

Maganbhai Kare was a listener, he said to Anupchandbhai, I have a dream that the meaning you have reduced is true.

When Maganbhai finished speaking, other listeners also spoke and started supporting Maganbhai's speech!

Anupchandbhai said that let's go to pay homage to Manivijayji Maharaj. Then no one has to talk about the dream.

Shri Manivijayaji went to Maharaj for Vandan and Pachakkhana as per routine. Manglik kahi maharajshree swayam vadya anupchandbhai! The sense in which you do is correct. I have a dream early in the morning.

Anupanchadbhai says, I am forgiven by your grace.

After this occasion, Manivijyaji Maharaj had immense faith in Shri Munisuvrat Swami Bhagwan.

This Shri Manivijayji Maharaj becomes the brother of Pujyapad Shri Sagarji Maharaj. Many are now acquainted with the two Manivijayaji Maharajs who have passed away. One is Shri Manivijji Dada, who is the original guru of most of the sadhu community of present day Tapagachchh. Another Shri Manivijayji Sihorwala.

What has been said here is that of Shri Manivijayji Maharaj, brother of Pujyapad Shri Sagarji Maharaj. His guru's name is Shri Nitivijayaji Dada, this is different from the famous Shri Nitisuri Maharaj. This Shri Niti Vijayji Dada settled in Khambhat. At present the main derasar of Shri Jiravalaji in Khambhat, in which eighteen derasars have been merged, is the original effort of this Shri Nitivijyaji Maharaj. When Pujyapadashri visited Khambhat, this Shri Nitivijayaji Dada, seeing the influence of Pujyapadash, said that these listeners do not believe. Suppose you can do this work and Pujyapadashree explained to the listeners and made one derasar of eighteen derasar!

Another name of this Nitivijyaji grandfather was also Nityavijayaji. He was a disciple of Shri Butaraiji Maharaj. He was a jeweler originally from Surat. The name was Nagindas. Day of the sitting year of birth record Samvat 15. Father's name is Narandas Dharamchand and mother's name is Nandkor. His initiation, at the age of thirty-seven, took place in Bhavnagar in Vikram Samvat 1917 at the hands of Pujyapad Shri Moolchandji Maharaj. He passed away at the age of thirty-one, on the eighth day of Bhadrapad Sud of Vikram Samvat 18.

He was such a recluse that even Shri Manivijayaji, a disciple of Teoshri, did not have information about the life of Shri Nitivijayaji Dada, so he asks Pujyapad Sagarji Maharaj, who is sitting in Surat, about the details of his life. Pujyasagarji Maharaj sends the answer.

Shri Manivijayji Maharaj knew English well. Reading English books was also good. He was the brother of Pujya Shri Sagarji Maharaj, but there was a big difference in the constitution of the two bodies. Sagarji Maharaj was sitting on the bench while Shri Manivijayji Maharaj was quite tall and huge. They also had glasses on their eyes. Were self-taught. He was keen to memorize texts like Panchashak and Panchvastu (Original). He was born in the village of Trapaj near Talaja. Acharya Shri Kumadsuri Maharaj, Kothwala Shri Kamalvijayji Maharaj etc. were in his disciple family.

Thus both Guru-Shishya set an ideal of working life.

Vandana ho, at the feet of Teoshri!
