fifth original Jagadguru.





Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj observed that people were misguided and totally ignorant about the actual essence of the scriptures and the true form of devotional practice. To rectify this dismal spiritual state of mankind he organized huge religious conferences in Chitrakoot in 1955 and at Kanpur in 1956. These conferences were attended by the most eminent scholars and Saints of India. It was during these conferences that the scriptural omniscience of Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj was revealed to the world, and even the most learned scholars were lost in amazement.

Impressed by Shri Maharaj Ji’s extraordinarily authoritative knowledge of all the scriptures, the Kashi Vidvat Parishat, a body of 500 topmost scholars who collectively represent the foremost seat of spiritual learning in India, invited him to Kashi (Varanasi).

Shri Maharaj Ji delivered a series of discourses in Sanskrit, which left all of them spellbound and speechless. They were so highly impressed by his unparalleled knowledge of all the scriptures, which far surpassed their combined knowledge, that they honoured him with the title of ‘Jagadguru’, ‘Spiritual Master of the whole world’, on January 14, 1957. He was only 34 years old then. The Kashi Vidvat Parishat honoured Him with the special title of ‘Jagadguruttam’, ‘Supreme amongst Jagadgurus’. They also declared him as ‘Bhakti-yoga-rasavatar’, ‘Descension of Divine Love and Bliss’.

In the history of India only four Saints have so far been honoured with the title of Jagadguru in the last 2500 years – Jagadguru Shankaracharya, Jagadguru Nimbarkacharya, Jagadguru Ramanujacharya and Jagadguru Madhvacharya. Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj is now the fifth original Jagadguru.

Both Guru and God are standing before me,
To Whom should i pay my respects first,
Glory to my Guru, Glory to my Guru,
Who revealed God to me!

GAHO RE MAN (Prem Ras Madira)


गहो रे मन ! श्याम चरण शरणाई ।
अंत समय कोउ काम न अइहैं मात पिता सुत भाई ।
काम क्रोध अरु लोभ मोह मद इन सों कछु न बसाई ।
यह जग मृग तृष्णा सम दिखत सुख लवलेश न पाई ।
धन यौवन तन छन भंगुर सब ज्यों कपूर उडि जाई ।
बहुरि 'कृपालु' न नर तनु पाइय बिगरी लेहु बनाई ॥


O mind! Take shelter of Shyamsunder's soft Lotus Feet.
Ones you call your own: mother, father, brother and son, will not accompany you after death.
Moreover, there is no other way of escaping from the clutches of demons like Lust, Anger, Greed, Attachment and Pride.
This world is like a mirage, containing not even a trace of happiness..
Wealth, youth and life are temporary, disappearing like camphor.
Says Shree ‘Kripalu’, “O mind! You will not be blessed with a human body again and again. Therefore, do not delay in improving your pitiable condition.”
