Swami
Raj Prakash Ji Maharaj are the most popular and
young face who leads the younger generation of
saints of Prem Prakash Mandal.
Swami Raj Prakash Ji were born on 27th March 1967
in Delhi as the son of Mayadevi & Muralidhar. In
the childhood he was named as Rajkumar and till
the date of Sanyas Diksha was famous as Raju or
Sant Rajuram. Both the parents were great devotees
and followers of Prem Prakash path, they used to
visit regularly Prem Prakash Ashram at Delhi.
Here, child Raju came in contact of Swami Jai
Prakash Ji Maharaj and soon become the most
affectionate kid of Swami Ji. Rajkumar was also
impressed with life style of Swami Jai Prakash Ji
and started dreaming to become like them.
In the year 1982, at age of 15 years only Rajkumar
was honored to be inducted in to Prem Prakash
Mandal as Saint at the Amrapur Asthan, most
sanctified place of panth in India. This proved to
be turning point of his life as in the years to
come he had not only served at various Prem
Prakash Ashrams like Jaipur, Haridwar etc. but
also come in contact of Satguru Swami Shanti
Prakash Ji Maharaj, from whom he learned Hindu
Shastra and Vedanta.
Rajkumar, know famous as Sant Rajuram, went on
completing his education to become Sanskrit
Acharya (equivalent to Post Graduation). First
year of new centaury brought yet another mile
stone achievement for Sant Rajuram as he was
assigned Ashram duty at Prem Prakash Dharam Tirth
Ashram Baroda, where he came in close contact of
Swami Ashok Prakash Ji Maharaj, from whom in the
year 2005, he took Sanyas Diksha and went on to be
known as Swami Raj Prakash.
From the year 2001 to 2009, the nine years spent
by him at Baroda ashram has proved feeding and
fertile ground for the development of his
personality and progress on the spiritual path.
From the Swami Ashok Prakash Ji Maharaj, he
learned practical lessons of importance of
simplicity in life and effective ways of
communicating and guiding masses for spiritual
progress in very simple language. Weekly Saturday
Satsang, dedicated to Swami Teoonram and monthly
celebration of Janam Choith helped him to learn
more and more about the life of first master of
the panth. This helped him to develop his own
style of communicating with devotees and disciples
of Prem Prakash Mandal, visiting Baroda ashram or
meeting him on tour. Along with Swami Ashok
Prakash Ji Maharaj, he was also traveling to
various places and often Swami Ji were asking him
to do the Satsang or sing a Bhajan.
In the near by city Surat, there was Prem Prakash
Ashram managed by trust but without any saint
living there. Trustees and many devotees like
Keshavlal requested many times Swami Ashok Prakash
Ji for blessing Surat Sindhi Samaj by appointing a
saint for Surat ashram to conduct regular Satsang
and look after the Ramnagar Ashram. During the
floods of 2004, and after that Swami Raj Prakash
Ji visited many times Surat and helped people to
return back to normal life, with his polite, kind
nature and helping attitude he become most
favorite saint of natives of Surat city.
Towards the end of year 2009, Swami Ashok Prakash
Ji Maharaj ask him to start living at Surat and
took charge of Ramnagar ashram. |
