A Short Biography of <strong>Shree</strong> <strong>Swami</strong> <strong>Samarth</strong> 216<br />

_________________________________________________________________________________________<br />

Expansion Of The Sampradaya<br />

Before his Mahasamadhi,<br />

<strong>Shree</strong> <strong>Maharaj</strong> had consoled<br />

his disciples and devotees by<br />

saying, “Even after<br />

departing from this world I<br />

will be around and act via<br />

Ashok (<strong>Shree</strong> Ashok Joshi-<br />

Kaka<strong>Maharaj</strong>)”.<br />

He had also clearly said,<br />

“Ashok is my son. Ashok will<br />

continue the propagation of<br />

Swaroop Sampradaya and<br />

the public welfare activities<br />

further. Infact, I will myself<br />

perform all the activities<br />

through Ashok”.<br />

Thus, the responsibility of the preceptor to continue the tradition of a Sadguru<br />

has come upon the shoulders of <strong>Shree</strong> Ashok Joshi alias Kaka <strong>Maharaj</strong> and he is<br />

accomplishing the same skilfully.<br />

<strong>Shree</strong> Digambardas <strong>Maharaj</strong> constructed the <strong>Shree</strong> Shiv-<strong>Samarth</strong> Gad (fortress)<br />

and the temple-shrine of <strong>Shree</strong> Seetarambua at Dervan. Now <strong>Shree</strong> Ashok Kaka<br />

<strong>Maharaj</strong> has been able to bring into reality the resolves of <strong>Shree</strong> Digambardas <strong>Maharaj</strong><br />

for Divine service, National service and public service. He has been successful in these<br />

ventures with untiring efforts & hard labour along with the cooperation of disciples and<br />

devotees like the late <strong>Shree</strong> Kamalakarpant. L Walawalkar Saheb, <strong>Shree</strong> Vikas<br />

K.Walawalkar Saheb, <strong>Shree</strong> Prasad Tendulkar, <strong>Shree</strong> Balasaheb Kajarekar, <strong>Shree</strong><br />

Madhavrao Mule and the rest. The various activities have continued up to date and the<br />

various resolves of Sadguru <strong>Shree</strong> Digambardas <strong>Maharaj</strong> that were already completed<br />

or in progress have been well taken care of under the active guidance of <strong>Shree</strong> Ashok<br />

Kaka <strong>Maharaj</strong>. Some of these resolves are as follows:<br />
