AGHORESHWAR BHAGWAN RAMJI
Birth
Parampujya Baba Aghoreshwar
Bhagwan Ram Ji was born on the 12th of September, 1937,
in the village of Gundi, near the town of Arrah, in
Bihar state of India. Parampujya Aghoreshwar was the
only child of his parents- father Sri Baijnath Singh and
mother Shrimati Lakhraji Devi. Before his birth, the
mother had a dream that the child she was going to give
birth to would not be an ordinary mortal, but Bhagwan
himself (God). Therefore, when the child was born, his
father named him
"Bhagwan".
Childhood
Baba lost his father at the
tender age of five. After this, the child was looked
after by his grandfather Sri Hridai Prasad Singh. His
grandmother took great interest in his upbringing and
Bhagwan also was too much attached to her. He was
admitted in school but he was not interested in study.
He used to collect other boys and in his leadership they
all used to perform prayers. He received Vaishnav
Seeksha from Saint Shreekant Ji. His quest for religious
knowledge inspired him to travel to various places of
pilgrimage.
Early Travel
Baba began to travel on foot
to various places of pilgrimage. His first journey was
to Gaya during the winter season. He visited several
temples in Gaya. After spending time in Gaya, he left
for Jagannathpuri on the east coast of India. He spent
some time at Jagannathpuri and returned back to his
village.
