[edit] Biography
Swami Sureshanand narrates his about his life, "I'm narrating my own experience...
[edit] The early stages of my life...
| “ | The early stages of my life were miserable like hell. In those days, tired of sufferings, I used to feel that it would be better if God could take away my life. My mother died when I was just 2 years old. Myself, my brother & two sisters, four of us were grief-stricken. My father got remarried. Two children were born to my step-mother. We used to feel that she really behaves like a step-mother with us, and therefore I & my brother used to steal money from home & run away. Now we did not know where to spend time, therefore we used to watch movies(cinema) in the theater. We made friends with vagabonds to pass time. At times when we could not find money at home or the money used to be in the safe, then I would sell the old large brass utensils kept at home for storing milk (my father had milk business), and roam around aimlessly. The vagabonds forced me into smoking bidi. Members of the family thought that if both of the brothers are separated then may be we'll leave the bad habbits. Therefore my brother was sent to my Aunty's (Bua) place in Madras. When I was left alone, I started running away from home more often. I wasted lot of family money. None of the relatives would want to see me. They started hating me.
Then came the first week of September 1983... My father told me that there is no place for me in the house. My heart was completely broken & I had nowhere to go. I felt like committing suicide. Under such adverse situation, I started remembering SadGurudev from the bottom of my heart. The voice of the true heart reached the SadGurudev. |

[edit] I reached the sacred place...
| “ | The very next day, with the grace of Gurudev, I reached the sacred place - Ahmedabad. Nobody had any place for me but it is the grace of Parbrahm Paramatma-Swarup Gurudev that I got a place near Pujya Shri's Shri Charana. The most fortunate day of my life came in the Shivir of Makar Sakranti in January 1984 when I was blessed with Diksha by Pujya Shri, cleansed myself off the old bad habbits & experienced the divine love of Pujya Gurudev. I'd never seen the love of a mother. Until the age of 13, I'd only seen torture & pain in my life. But look at the divine grace of Gurudev! Our SadGurudev, who has the character of Lord Rama, personalty of Lord Krishna, the harmony of Lord Shiva, whose words itself are the Mantra & the Shastra, such a reverend Gurudev has given me everything!
...That who is born shall die. But the SadGurudev gives the knowledge of Brahma & takes the disciple out of the troublesome ocean of odds & evens, makes him free of cycles of birth & death. All the sins are destroyed by seeing such a SadGurudev, one reaches beyond the bondage of Karma if such a SadGurudev touches him, the illusion of life is destroyed by listening to the words of such a SadGurudev. It is the my experience & experience of millions of Guru brothers & sisters. |

[edit] The aftermath...
| “ | I have got everything by worshipping the lotus feet of SadGurudev! When I left home, at that time my parent were worried for two of my sisters who were of marriageable age. The financial situation of the house was poor. I started staying in the Ashram & my sisters also took Diksha from Gurudev. With Gurudev's grace they got married in good families. One of them who got married in Dubai could not have child for five years after marriage. But with Gurudev's Mantra, she now has a son & a daughter. My step-sister Laju also got married in a good family because she had taken mantra-diksha before her marriage & she used to do japa regularly.
There are no words to describe the never-ending grace of SadGurudev. Even now I'm reminded of that day in the first week of September, 1983, when my father did not open the doors at midnight & said from the window itself that there was no place for me in the house. Everyone rejected me, but Gurudev accepted me. If it would not have been for SadGurudev, my life would have come to an end..." [1]. |
