Our Mission

This site is for all those unbiased and open-minded seekers of the Ultimate Truth and the identity of the Supreme Lord cutting across and above all religions. After going through various aspects of spirituality, religion, etc. the site shall take you to the Ultimate Destination and the identity of the so far elusive and unknown Supreme Lord based on the spiritual journey of yours faithful. The abode and sport of the Supreme Lord and the hierarchies of universes shall be explained as per the Ultimate Revealed wisdom available with the Nijanand School of Spirituality. This is in keeping with the metaphorical or allegorical descriptions found in various religious texts/revelations from messengers across religions and is probably an information for only the esoteric spiritualists.

The site caters to a pan-religious outlook and weaves a common thread of spiritual knowledge linking all scriptures and messengers in continuum starting with Vedas and ending with Quran (V-Q). All the esoteric, metaphoric and covert contents of various scriptures, V-Q, are finally explained in the Ultimate Revealed Wisdom (Kuljam Swaroop or Mukh Vani/Tartam Vani) which appeared approximately about 400 years back. Doubts and queries that may arise in this connection shall get cleared as one goes through the contents of the site.

The site does not want to entertain any arguments and fissiparous comments from any quarter. It is left to the reader whether to accept or not to accept, believe or not to believe. The site does not want to impose any belief against the wishes of the reader. The site would have served its purpose if it elicits inquisitiveness even in a few readers or it stimulates rational enquiry or thinking.

Those who are staunch believers of some faith/sect or with dogmatic religious belief may please keep off from the site. Maybe it is not for you.

This is only for the open-minded unbiased seekers.

Author’s Journey

Dr. A. V. Ramachandran

Dear virtuous and spiritually inclined fellow beings! I feel that The Almighty Himself has driven me so to say, due to some original connection or due to some previous spiritual endeavours of mine. I was born in a God-fearing religious family and brought up in a religious environment that gave me ample exposure right from childhood itself to the nuances of mythical mythology and traditional and ritualistic worship.

After growing up, watching and taking part in ritualistic worship and festivals related to Goddess Kali and Lord Kartikeyan, Shivji etc, in my village at Kerala, I came to Baroda in Gujarat via Delhi and Lucknow in the year 1962. My paternal uncle soon inherited the mantle of the spiritual leader of a sect called Mai (Ādhi Shakthi) at Mumbai and my father got drawn to it and later became an ardent worshipper of Ādhi Shakthi and took to it firmly after retirement till his last day and probably gained some spiritual closeness with Ādhi Shakthi. I was fortunate enough that there was no family pressure on me to believe and practice the religiosity or rituals engaged in by family or community. I was free to have my own thinking and follow the path or tradition that I liked.

From the time I finished my Master’s degree and got registered for Ph.D program and also started my University career as Asst. Lecturer in 1968, I developed a special liking for Hanumanji and became an ardent follower of His. As directed by somebody, I observed 18 consecutive Saturdays only on water and partaking black gram or urad dāl (in number equalling the number of observational Saturday). In those days, I had the opportunity to meet a Muslim gentleman from a village called Sadra some 100 km away from Ahmedabad who had acquired some occult powers in the form of clairvoyance and used to help people with his spiritual endowments. He supposedly acquired the mystic powers by the worship of family mazār of a saint, ‘Dāthār’ and with whom he used to be in communication through a rosary of beads. He became a regular guest of mine at Baroda and I used to visit his small mud house at Sadra and spend some days and nights there. He was the one who initiated me into the worship of Kuldevi (family deity) and other deities. I then started worshipping maternal and paternal Kuldevies and other deities along with Hanumanji and used to observe Navratries (a celebration of dance of nine nights) and Hanuman Jayanti (birth anniversary). On the Ashtami (eighth) day of Navratries, I used to make propitious fire offerings (havan) to the deities. This Muslim gentleman took a liking for me and initiated me into the occult means of getting answers from Hanumanji through a rosary. Sometime in the late 1970s, he left this mortal world and I continued with my routines. Gradually, I came across many other Hanuman bhakts (worshippers) and started visiting many Hanuman temples. I was then introduced by a fellow Hanuman bhakt to one Mr Maruthrao (a man of meagre means and used to earn a livelihood by stitching clothes in a tailoring shop) a devotee of Hanumanji in Wardha at Maharashtra and started visiting him regularly. I used to accompany him to a place called Borgaon near Chandarpur for Hanuman Jayanti for the next few years. We used to leave Wardha late in the evening before Hanuman Jayanti day, travel by train to a station after Chandarpur and then cover the remaining distance on foot through fields and across a river between midnight and early morning to reach Borgaon. Maruthrao was supposed to be empowered by Hanumanji’s force and, he used to go stiff with a contorted face and a hand pose as though holding a mace rested on the shoulder and give answers to people’s queries and solve the problems of harried people.

It was on one such occasion I requested Hanumanji to give me also some power to heal the sufferings of poor and needy people. ‘Pat’ came the reply, yes, I can give you such powers by which you shall do great deeds and help many a people and shall be thronged by seekers, but then, you will have to adorn a langot (loincloth) like me and sit with no other materialistic attachments like a job, home, teaching etc’. Then I was told that I should continue doing my appointed karma of teaching and learning, etc. and proceed as destined and that He shall give me four anās (quarter of a rupee) worth of power. I was consoled that I can seek answers from Him through the rosary and I might do a little here and there for people who come to me. True to his words, I used to help many with their problems on Tuesdays and Saturdays and apparently, as told by people the answers were true or that the thread that I gave to people to be tied around their wrist, neck or waist in the name of Hanumanji did help them to overcome their problems.

Then in the 1990s, I came across another Gujarati man from a village near Viramgam who was the follower of a saint who had appeased Goddess Kalika. He also played some role in my spiritual sojourn and at times, he used to ask me to get concurrence from Hanumanji regarding some solutions that he used to suggest to his followers, essentially guided by his Guru. All the while, as I had been traversing the spiritual path, I had one yearning question to Hanumanji as well as the deities that I was worshipping and that was, “Who is the ultimate or who is the only one Almighty from amongst all the Hindu Gods and Goddesses’? Who is that one entity common to all world religions? After persistent questioning and pestering Hanumanji, he directed me to approach Shivji. Then I went after Shivji seeking the elusive answer. There were many nights when I used to weep bitterly seeking the answer and I was all the time consumed by the idea that I am a misfit in this world and not able to cope with the ways of this world.

I used to abjure social contacts and avoided social gatherings and family get together. My only friends used to be my professional colleagues and students. By this time, my wife left for her heavenly abode in 1993 and my only daughter got married and settled in Canada in 1997. Apparently, the hidden hand of the Supreme Lord, whom I was seeking, was freeing me from all worldly bondages and making my journey more meaningful and was guiding me into the appointed path (which of course I came to realize later). In my quest to seek the elusive answer, and for a wider understanding of spiritual aspects, I took to reading the Purāns. When I finished reading Vishnu Purān, I had a transient satisfaction of probably having found the answer as at the end in this Purān, was the statement that, Vishnu is the ultimate from whom, even Brahma and Mahesh manifested.

(Note: These three are supposed to be the three God-heads according to Hindu tradition and are also synonymous with other principles having different names as per western traditions as well; to be explained later)

With some satisfaction, I set out reading Shiv Purān and by the end of it, satisfaction gave way to confusion, as herein, Shiva was the ultimate from whom Brahma and Vishnu manifested. My satisfaction and confusion turned to disgust by the time I finished reading Padma Purān when I learned with consternation from it that, Shakthi is the ultimate from which the triumvirate Godheads manifested. I knew that I was back to square one and more confused and bewildered than ever before. I read many books on Gods, Goddesses and temples and remained thrilled with the many mystics and mythic feats and deeds of them, though not finding any rewarding answer to my question. I read Bhagwat Gita, which impressed me by the many fine concepts and practical points but then was also confused with the varying interpretations in different versions of this holy text. I read Bible and Qurān, and also many spiritual texts of different spiritual heads and got buried under a heap of concepts like ‘Aham Brahmāsmi’ (Brahm or Almighty within me), ‘Kan kan me’n Brahma’ (Brahm in every bit matter), ‘Brahm Satyam Jagat mithya’ (Brahm is true but the world is false), ‘Sagun Sākār’ (with attribute and form), ‘Nirgun Nirākār’ (attributeless and formless) and whatnot. Whatever anyone might say, I could never ever reconcile myself with the idea of Paramātma (Almighty) being Nirākār (formless).

It was during this period of utter helplessness and my constant engagement with Shivji that, on one fine morning in 2000 as I was working on the computer on my classroom talks and lectures and, changing TV channels dishing out spiritual discourses by different spiritual leaders, I stumbled upon the end part of a discourse by Shri Jagdish Chandraji explaining the three Brahmānds (Universes) on a chart. This, I came to know later, was the end part of a discourse that he gave at Baroda Nijānand Āshram. The discourse ended immediately without my becoming aware either of the chart or about the speaker or even of the place. Overcome with the compulsive desire or craving to know about that piece of information about the Brahmānds, of which I had never read or heard about, I started searching the channels for this discourse from next day onwards but alas to my disgust, I could not get it again. By luck or design, I caught the same end part on a channel some 3-4 months after, and this time, not wanting to miss on any details, I set aside my work and concentrated on the screen and I caught the address of Baroda Āshram. Within a couple of hours, I was ready and out on my two-wheeler speeding off towards the Āshram on the highway to Mumbai. There I met Shri Balu Bhai and after exchanging some pleasantries, I enquired for some literature and he readily took me to a room full of books at the side of the temple and in an hour after scouting through all the collection, I picked up a huge catch of books in English and Hindi and also a copy of ‘Beethak Sāhib’ (a divine narration of real happening). I was also interested in a copy of ‘Vāni’ (a collection of divine verses spoken by Lord Incarnate) but then I was told that I might take it after I go through the literature and once I am convinced of the philosophy. I returned with the catch and started reading Beethak Sāhib, setting aside all work and finished it in 5 days. I also read all the books in the next few days and realized that, this was what I was looking for since long and that here is something that gives me logical and rational answers to all the puzzling questions and episodes. This also appeared to unite all religions in one thread and felt the exuberant sense of elation of having found my Paramātma and the Lord of my soul. I went all alone with a student of mine to Panna, as I was bitten by the bug of expectancy and, wanting to pay my loveful salutation to Prān-nāthji (Raaj Ji). After returning, I took Thārtham (a vow of weddedness to the Lord by reciting the eternal divine hymn leaving aside the worship of all worldly deities), also met Shri Raman Bhai Patel, trustee of the āshram, and had many exchanges regarding Vāni. It was during one such exchange that, he told me to meet Shri Rajan Swamiji for my spiritually loaded questions and doubts. Though I was also to meet Sarkar Shree (Jagdishchandraji), it was not to be as he was on a hospital bed. He did not recover and ultimately left for the eternal abode soon. I did nevertheless meet Shri Rajan Swamiji, who impressed me as a noble soul with admirable simplicity and deep knowledge of scriptures, blessed, and graced by the Meher (grace) of Dħām Dħani Aksharātheeth Sri Rāj Ji (Lord, the Almighty). He not only left a lasting impression on me but we also took to each other, as it was essentially a meeting of minds. Since then until today, I have been associated with him and have found him to be an invaluable source of guidance and inspiration. It was only due to his suggestion that I took up the challenge of translating many of his spiritually authentic offerings related to Mukh Vāni (the divine verses spoken by the Lord Incarnate some 400 years back) and Beethak as well as other works of general nature in Hindi for all followers as well as other seekers of spiritual wisdom. It was his suggestion and continuous input of valuable information that has given me the courage to undertake the venture of producing an English version of the general introduction to Nijānand School, established as a new order by none else but the exalted power of Aksharātheeth Rāj Ji that manifested as the eagerly awaited Budhh Nishkalank Form by Hindus, as Imām Mahadhi by Muslims and as the Second Christ by Christians or as the Second Moses by Jews, for all the open-minded spiritual seekers of truth.
