Baba Maharaj's Divine Connection with
Saint Swami Swaroopananda

Although there was much overlap between the timelines of Saint Baba Maharaj and the great Nath Sampradaya saint of Pawas, Swami Swaroopananda, they never met in person. However, the deep spiritual bond between them is evident through Swami Swaroopananda’s heartfelt words of blessing, penned in response to Sangati, a spiritual magazine founded by Saint Baba Maharaj. Swami Swaroopananda writes:

"S. N. V. V. -

​

Your letter dated 11-4-68 has reached me. Through self-contemplation, chanting of the divine name, writing, discourses, and various other spiritual means, fostering righteousness within society is our only god-ordained duty! Let us always remember this and fulfill it to the best of our ability and understanding.

I pray at the feet of the lord that you all attain success in your noble endeavor of publishing this quarterly journal.

​

Yours in Self-contentment,
Swaroopananda"

(A translated version of the letter)

Swami would instruct his disciples to read Divyamritdhara thoroughly until its essence was fully grasped, for in this sacred text, Saint Baba Maharaj Arvikar had revealed the profound mysteries of the entire Nath tradition.
