charya Vijay Indradinna Surushwar Maharaj is a most respected saint of the Shwetambar Jain tradition. Born in a Parmar Kshatriya family in the village of Salpura
of Vadodara district in 1923, he spent his childhood in a very religious and pious atmosphere. Unfortunately, when he was but ten years of age, he lost both his parents.
At the age of 11, he happened to visit Damoi, 22 km. away from Salpura and came in contact with Rangvijayji Maharaj. Here he received his early education in Jain dharma. From Damoi, he went to Bodeli and stayed in the hostel there till he was 17 years old.. He was given Bhagawati diksha in 1941 in Narsanda village by Vinay-Vijayji Maharaj and became a Jain muni with the name Indravijay.
