The importance of a sage is never judged on the basis of the enormity of the number of his disciples, the spread of his fame, or the assemblage of his worshipers. In fact, it is judged on the basis of the degree of the excellence of his spiritual endeavour, the benefits of his knowledge to the self and others and the transparent purity of his way of life. Radiant with the sharp aura of spiritual achievements UPADHYAYA SHRI PUSHKAR MUNI JI was one such yogi whose life was made a touch-stone by his devout practices of penance, chanting and cognitive and scholastic study of the scriptures.
He was a simple pious soul and an accomplished practicer of Jap-yoga (a system of chanting). As a natural consequence of regular practices of meditation, Maun (a system of practice of silence or non-communication) and discipline of body and senses, he had acquired many
spiritual powers. With his pious blessings thousands of A his followers got relieved of ailments and problems of body and spirit and attained inner peace.
Besides this he was a highly versatile individual. He was astoundingly perceptive and had a sharp memory. Gurudevshri was so tender hearted and compassionate that he literally melted seeing someone in pain and never hesitated to remove the cause of pain through his spiritual power. He submitted himself to the cause of welfare and upliftment of every living being. His discourses and writings on a variety of topics including Jain religion and philosophy, poetry and fiction form the basis of 125 books published till date.
The head of the Shraman Sangh and renowned scholar Acharya Shri Devendra Muni ji is the most
prominent among his disciples. 1818181818 HHHH81410183888.8888888888888HAHAR
