Saint Goswami Sri Balak Ram Sharan ji "Bindupad" (Founder of Shree Bindu Sewa Sansthan Vrindavan)


Throughout the whole world, among lovers of Sri Ram Charit Manas, the name of Saint Goswami Sri Balak Ram Sharan is referred to with high respect and devotion. Sri Maharaj ji is an adopted son and favorite disciple of the late reverend Saint Goswami Sri Bindu ji Maharaj, world renowned preacher of Sri Ram Charit Manas, immortal singer of Mohan-Mohini and an exponent of the modern style of preaching on Sri Ram Charit Manas.

Sri Bindu ji Maharaj happened to be the first to experiment with a modern theoretical style of preaching. He was not only a Scholar of a high order during his life, but also a glowing Sun, who generated fresh awareness among the masses about Sri Ram Katha - that emancipates human beings from all ills of life. Without a doubt, the whole of humanity will continue to benefit from the unforgettable good deeds of Sri Maharaj for many ages to come.


His Holiness Goswami Sri Balak Ram Sharan "Bindupad" followed his preceptor in a true sense, and to further the task left incomplete by his predecessor, took a pledge, to dedicate his entire life to generating awareness about the all pious Sri Ram Katha among the masses.

Binduji Sant Goswami Sri Bindu ji Maharaj

Goswami Sri Bindu ji maharaj was born in the year 1893 on the auspicious day of Radhashtami (the Birthday of the Goddess Radha), in the holy city of Ayodhya. Goswami Sri Bindu ji maharaj was educated and received his religious initiation in Ayodhya. Goswami Bindu ji Maharaj studied Ramayana, Bhagwat, Bhagwat Gita, and other Shaastras and Puranas. Sri Ram Charit Manas was his favourite subject. He was a scholar of Sanskrit, Hindi, English, Urdu, Brij Bhasha, Avdhi, Bhojpuri, and other languages. He was a great speaker, scholar, writer, musician and poet.

He established the Akhil Bhartiya Ramcharit Manas conference in Varanasi for the propagation of the principles and essence of Ram Charit Manas. According to his belief, the principles propounded in the Ram Charit Manas are not directed at any particular caste or community, but they are for the benefit and uplift of all peoples of the world.

In Vrindavan he established the Prem Dham Ashram. Devotion and Love according to him, are the greatest of all religions, and Love is God. He wrote many books, such as “Mohan Mohini”, “Manas madhuri”, “Ram rajya”, “Kirtan manjari”, “Pashani Ahilya”, “Manas ka mallah”, “Dharmavatar”, “Murali manohar”, “Bhayankar bhoot”, “Ram Gita”, “Ras panchadhyai”, “Suman sanchy”, “Bodh vani”, “Navyug vinod”.

He had millions of disciples all over India, who loved to see him, read him and hear him. A number of Maharajas of different Indian states were his disciples. When he delivered his spiritual lectures in the holy city of Varanasi, the people were so charmed that they even left their routine business to listen him. People were enchanted to listen to his chanting of Raja Ram Ram Ram. Once in Chitrakoot, about two million people were crowded together to listen his lecture.

He contributed to the freedom movement of India by writing patriotic plays, poems etc. The British government of India banned his book in those days. He described in his book, the British government as a “Ravana” government. The government arrested him and took him to court, and charged him with contempt of government. He described the similarities to his book, so they arrested him and made some serious charges. Then he said in court: ‘if you accept what I wrote there, that it is truly like a Ravan government, then I am ready for any punishment from you.’ Because of this, they released him. But his book was still banned.

Rashtra Pita Mahatma Gandhi loved him very much. Gandhi invited him to lecture on two occasions, in order to listen to him himself, and encouraged him to write a book. Goswami Sri Bindu ji maharaj then wrote Rashtriya Ramayana and Ram rajya.

But he had no interest in politics. India's first Prime Minister Sri Jawaharlal Nehru invited him to stand for election, because he was very famous and the people loved him, but he didn’t accepted the offer, and said: ‘I am not a political man. I am spiritual, and want only to be spiritual.’

He wanted to leave his body in Vrindavan, and this, his last wish, he told to Swami Balakram ji in Delhi, when he was already ill and in hospital. So he brought him to Vrindavan, and on 1st Dec 1964, he left his body in the Prem Dham Ashram in Vrindavan.

Nowadays whoever gives lectures on Ramayana, Bhagwat and the Gita, or sings Hindi Bhajan and Kirtan, they all sing his Poetry.
