Sant Kavi Dasganu Maharaj Mandir, Gortha, Taluka Umari, District Nanded. Edit
Detail InformationEdit
Shri Das Ganu Maharaj has set up a very modest Ashram in a small but a very beautiful village called Gorate, dist. Nanded of Maharashlra State. If one takes the South Central train from Nanded and alights at Umari, people can guide one to Gorate. Though it is only at 5 kilometer distance from Umari, one can find an autorikshaw to reach the Ashram. Gorate. Oh, what a lovely place it is! Das Ganu Maharaj has aptly chosen a serene place for meditation and devotion. Completely detached from the noisy city life, one enters into the quietness and peace as soon as one steps into Gorate. Shri Chhagan Maharaj, a very soft spoken and extremely kind hearted devotee is incharge of the Ashram. He makes it his duty to see that the visitors are quite comfortable. Regular daily programmes are performed in front of Das Ganu Maharaja’s Samadhi. We find even villagers singing Marathi and Sanskrit prayers in perfect accents and with peace spreading rhythm. One gets bathed in peace and enjoys a different kind of feeling when peace permeates through one’s body.
