About Us

HD Kakaji Maharaj supported BSPP Shashtriji Maharaj and the tradition of the AksharPurushottam philosophy, in which Swaminarayan Bhagwan is the one and only Parabrahman, and Gunatitanand Swami is the one and only Aksharbrahman (the ideal devotee of God).  While there can only be one Aksharbrahman, everyone can work towards becoming a pure devotee to worship Parabrahman in the highest manner.  Kakaji devoted his life to helping others understand this message. He closely supported saints such as BSPP Pramukh Swami Maharaj, BSPP Mahant Swami Maharaj, BSPP Hariprasad Swami Maharaj, BSPP Jasbhai Saheb, BSPP Mukundjivan Swami, BSPP Prem Swami, BSPP Nirmal Swamiji, BSPP Das Swamiji, BSPP Aksharvihari Swamiji, and many many more.   

​

With roots firmly planted in the Akshar Purushottam Upasana, the many branches of the tree grew.  Devotees flocked to pursue guidance in their own spiritual paths with the style they most preferred. In 1974, our Divine Master Kakaji Maharaj established Yogi Divine Society in Mumbai. In 1983, Kakaji established Yogi Divine Society in the United States with Dinkar Uncle as President. Along with Mahendra Bapu, Dinkar Uncle continued the traditions of Friday Sabha, weekly mahapoojas, scriptural readings, spiritual retreats, and family counseling.  Other leaders of the Gunatit Samaj, including BSPP Pappaji Maharaj, BSPP Hariprasad Swami Maharaj, BSPP Jasbhai Saheb, BSPP Mukundjivan Swami, BSPP Prem Swami and others, regularly visited the temple in Waukegan

and grew the satsang in many directions and styles.

​

Today, with centers all over the world, we continue to practice Kakaji's teachings of unity and harmony as the Gunatit Samaj, relying on our Guru to show us the path. We each wish to embody the highest spiritual principles so we may offer devotion to the ultimate Parabrahman.
