HISTORY
After celebrating a memorable and marvelous ‘Maha Mahotsav’ of 21 days as the Mahant of Shree Swaminarayan Temple-Junagadh, Rev. Sadguru Shastriji Maharaj Shree Dharmajivandasji Swami went on pilgrimage on foot to various ancient religious places on the Himalayas. Seeing Gurukul and Saints imparting Sanskrit and Religious education to young students, he realised the message of Bhagwan Shree Swaminarayan to preserve and propagate ‘Sadvidya’ all over the world. There he got inner inspiration to start some constructive and serviceful activities based on the broad and benevolent messages of Bhagwan Shree Swaminarayan. Coming back to Saurashtra he established Shree Swaminarayan Gurukul in the year of India’s independence i.e. in 1947-48 at Rajkot (Gujarat).
