‘I am one among you. A simple common being’, says Sadguru Shree Aniruddha Bapu but that in fact is His uniqueness. A family person Himself, He connects with us common persons as a ‘friend’ – a friend who loves unconditional, a friend who wants to see us happy. And yet for millions this ‘friend’ for life is a father, a mother – in fact all of these always – He is their Sadguru. He is their guide, who walks the path to show the way.
Rheumatologist of repute Dr. Aniruddha Dhairyadhar Joshi MD (med) also known as Sadguru Shree Aniruddha Bapu states in no uncertain terms that He is not an avataar, not of anybody. He was Aniruddha and Aniruddha He will always be. Shunning miracles as jugglery, He relates to all those who have faith in the divine principles as their server. He has love and nothing but love to give to the world.
His discourses that began way back in 1996, centre around sacred works like the Vishnusahasranaam, the Radhasahasranaam, the Ramraksha, the Shree Saisachcharit but reveal to us, how these relate to life even today, how the principle contained can be implemented, how they strengthen bhakti and how they bring closer to God.
Bhakti and seva (devotional services) are sides of one and the same coin. The various seva projects undertaken by the organization that functions on His inspiration and principles weave in both these values along with the well-being of man as a component of society.

– Harshal Valunj, Kalyan When a delicate body part such as an eye gets hurt, a person tends to experience restlessness or rather a sense of helplessness. If the eye, through which we see the world, dysfunctions, the plight of such a person can only be imagined. However, if one is protected by their Sadguru, the person may never lose their vision.

– Kusum Darekar, Nashik Once a person has Mothi Aai’s blessings and that of her son, our Sadguru Bapu, one becomes fearless to face any untoward incident.

सद्गुरु श्री अनिरुद्धजी ने ३० जून २००५ के पितृवचनम् में ‘अग्नि और जल’ इस बारे में बताया। जल, यह जो हमारा शरीर है, यह शरीर दिखता है तो, क्या पानी दिखता है शरीर में कहीं? बाहर से नहीं दिखता। हर कोई जो सायन्स का स्टुडण्ड है, जानता है कि शरीर का कितना हिस्सा पानी है? ७०% वॉटर है इस शरीर में। पृथ्वी पर कितना पानी है और कितनी जमीन है?
