Swami Shri Adgadanad Ji Maharaj came to the recluse of the worldly saint Paramanand Ji at the age of 23 years in November 1955 searching for the truth. The hermitage of Parmanand Ji was at Chitrakoot Anusuiya, Satna, Madhya Pradesh (India) amidst the dense forests infested with wild animals. Living in such inhabitable forest in the absence of any facility. This rightly reflects that he was a great sage. Reverend Paramhans Ji received premonitions of his arrival many years ago. The day he reached the ashram, Paramhans Ji received divine presage.
He had declared to his disciples, “A young man who is ardently seeking to go beyond the periodicity of life must be coming at any moment now.” Moment he cast his eye upon him, Paramahans Ji declared, “Here he is!”
Whenever a pupil comes in contact with a great sage, immediately it is beyond his senses to fathom the greatness of the sage. He was also intimated by the divine soul and chaste Brahmin, “The sages who have been incarnated in this world, your Guru has all those qualities and he is such sage. With the strengthening of his faith in the Guru his spiritual pursuit also speeded up.Guided under the angelic guidance of the Guru he set out on the path of spiritual freedom. The aim was established.
Maharaj Ji, although was not interested in writing, following the godly directions he has contributed invaluable treatises through speech and in text for the social good. The first such publication is ‘Jeevanadarsh and Atmaanubhooti’ – is an account of the ideal life and the spiritual pursuit of his Guru Paramhans Paramanand Ji. It is a collection of his life sketch and many astonishing incidents. Many of the people are even alive today, who have seen such unique personality and for that matter they consider themselves very lucky. Secrets of the techniques of spiritual pursuits, which have been revealed to him by the Guru, have also been included in this book. It is one of the most appraised and invaluable books in today’s world, on the subject of spiritualism, which could only be perceived by the student on the path of attainment of spiritualism.
The divine direction has become instrumental in the creation of this book. Since the thought , promulgated by the Yogeshwar Lord Krishna have been expressed in their simple rudimentary form, it is called ‘Yatharth Geeta’.
Only a contemporary saint can find true solution for the social good, answers to their questions and solve their problems. The dead do not rule from the graves. To have reverence for the departed and take guidance from them to certain extent may be alright, however, for the contemporary problems, we need to take guidance from some great living saint only.
Swami Ji has never advanced claim that he has attained divinity. He merely presents to the society, what he has been able to receive in his quest of Truth. Swami Ji has spent fifteen years of his life in deep meditation in proximity of his Guru. There are many present who have seen him forgoing food, water, sleep, etc. for months together.
Since the Nirvana of Gurudev in 1969, for the last thirty years, wherever Swami Ji stayed, several cloistered holy people, thousands of devotees from the regions and plenty of grief-stricken people had a unique opportunity to regularly interact with him and seek his blessings. Making necessary uninterrupted, arrangements for the people travelling from very long distance of free service of snacks, food and rest without even seeking help from others is certainly a miraculous feat.

There are over ten thousand commentaries of Geeta and all of them are worthy of honours. All of them direct one to the spiritual path in accordance with faith in it. but Yathartha Geeta differs on certain issues :-
1. Till date whoever has heard about Geeta has realised that, this scripture was instrumental in the great terrible war of Mahabharat. Although the war was fought, Yathartha Geeta says that, a war fought in accordance with Geeta is not a war among the living beings but obliterates… (más)
There are over ten thousand commentaries of Geeta and all of them are worthy of honours. All of them direct one to the spiritual path in accordance with faith in it. but Yathartha Geeta differs on certain issues :-
1. Till date whoever has heard about Geeta has realised that, this scripture was instrumental in the great terrible war of Mahabharat. Although the war was fought, Yathartha Geeta says that, a war fought in accordance with Geeta is not a war among the living beings but obliterates the existence between the nature and the Supreme Being and the result at last is universal conquest. This is a war within oneself.
2. The readers of this say that, it sermonises to do one’s duty without any desire of reward. Whatever one does, it should be done without any desire of reward. But, Yathartha Geeta clarifies, the Karma that Lord Krishna indicates is in true sense Karma ‘Aradhana’ – rumination of divine duty. The ritual of Yoga is Yajna and the process of putting it into practice is the karma. This is a new definition.
3. The moment people hear the word – Yajna, they would conjure up vision of a pyre where Sesame seeds, clarified butter etc. offered in the holy fire. But according to Yathartha Geeta the whole universe – animate and inanimate - are the ingredients of offerings for the holy fire. The expanse of our mind is universe. The result of he holy ritual is achieved when the existence of the expanse of mind is obliterated and what remains is the perception of Supreme Being – “The omnipotent Brahma, its feel, entry within and the divine state! Acquiescence of the divine blessings !!
4. Having read the Geeta a saint divided the human society into different high and low classes -four classes called Four Varnas as prescribed by the God. But Yathartha Geeta doesn’t believe in segmentating of human beings. The thing that leads to such division is the Karma action – the ritual of meditation.
5. Yathartha Geeta has directed attention towards the fact that the Karma prescribed by Lord Krishna is a specified Karma. There has to be a proper ritual for it. Usually people continue to do something or the other; isn’t that Karma? Yogeshwar Krishna has explicitly clarified in Chapter Three that, activity that is done other than this Yajna is ‘Karma’ which creates a bond. The Karma prescribed by Geeta is such that having learnt it you would be freed of all the bonds of the World.
6. The meaning of the Yajna described by Yathartha Geeta is astounding. Till date not a single treatise has described that, inhaling and exhaling of breath itself is Yajna. The exhaling of breath is a Yajna and holding of breath is Yajna. Having faith in one divinity, servitude of the divine teacher and such fourteen steps are described for the performance of Yajna.
The activity, Yogeshwar Krishna was hinting at is perhaps the Meditation techniques. The precise Karma of Geeta aims at following the steps of this technique and the result of the Karma is the realisation and entry within the omnipotent Brahma!
7. It is falsely believed in the society that only the people of upper caste can perform Yajna. It is fallaciously believed that the people of low community and the foreigners have no right to perform Yajna, chant ‘Aum’ or enter a temple. But it has been clarified in Yathartha Geeta that the treatise of Geeta does not prescribe any such rituals Performed by such people. But the Geeta prescribes that every human being has a right to perform such yajna. Geeta says in verse 31 of chapter of 4 that, without Yajna, it is not possible to gain human life again, how will it be possible to obtain liberation (moksha) Ephemeral is the root cause of all anguishes in this life, but since you are blessed with the human body, worship me. All those who are humans have a right to worship god.
8. It is customary to worship multiple of deities. Yogeshwar Krishna describes worship of other deities as the product of idiotic mindset or insatiable lust and ignorance of the people. He says that the God is only one truth and take recourse to that. Geeta believes in one god
9. Yathartha Geeta has explained that the Geeta is a religious treatise for all the people of the world. It doesn’t belong to only Hindus or saints, but is very much religious treatise for the human beings spread out in various religious sects such as Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Christian, Parsee, Buddhists or Jains or any other religion by any other name. According to Geeta the man is a unit. His temperament is either divine or formed by his natural instincts. Every human being is either divine or devilish. In fact, there is no precise caste or sect of a human being. One can attain supreme peace by following the teachings of Geeta.
10. Geeta doesn’t entice you that you can attain heaven or terrify you with the thoughts of hell after the death. Geeta berates the happiness of the heaven and cautions you against against the pain and unhappiness at the end. Geeta enables you to perceive , feel and immerse within the Supreme Being. Such a state doesn’t exist after the death. It is attainable very quickly. You must engross yourself with entire trust and you can experience him in this mortal body itself.
11. After reading Yathartha Geeta faithfully for three to four times, you would come to realise that, the God about whom you have been hearing till now, has already begun to guide you . Once you come to realise this truth, you will forget about being a Christian, a Jew, a Hindu or a Muslim, a Jain or a Buddhist.You would realise that in this vast world only you have the human form.You are the essence of divinity, He is your image and He is your ultimate destination. And the way to attain it is, Geeta
12. It is explicitly mentioned in Geeta that, in order to attain the divinity, one will have to follow the prescribed path or do the precise Karma. Without that nobody has been able to ever achieve the goal nor we will be able to achieve it. The entire meditation technique has been described stepwise in Geeta. It would be a great mistake to ignore the practice of the dictates of Geeta or not to know about it.
13. Yathartha Geeta makes it explicit that human body is like a garment. Just as one discards old clothes and puts on new, the soul (Atma) discards old body and adopts a new one. Being male or female is just like having different shapes of the garment. There are two types of males in the world. Body or form of all being is or Changing male. When all senses including the mind are conquered then he becomes male. He can no longer be destroyed. This is the status of complete devotion. In various societies women are either respected or looked down upon. However as shown in Yathartha Geeta, anyone dedicating the self to ‘me’ (God) attains ‘moksha’ whether one is man or woman
14. The most important point on which Yathartha Geeta emphasises is that the key to understand Geeta is through ‘Yogeshwar’ or an enlightened Guru. Otherwise even a learned intelligent person doesn’t have that capability. When Geeta was discoursed among millions whose ears and the eyes were open, but there were only two listeners – Arjun and Sanjay who were blessed with divine perception.

In accordance with Yathartha Geeta, as soon as you begin to study the teachings of the Geeta, the God would guide you to the right Guru. You will be guided from within. Your doubts would be dissolved. You will be awakened from within and would gradually proceed on the path of divinity...
