Kalidasbhai
Kalidasbhai is one of the Enlightened teachers in the Raj Saubhag lineage. Having been bestowed Gurugam Gyan from Shyamaldasbhai, he not only realised his soul but achieved great heights. Pujya Bapuji used to say that Kalidasbhai’s Atma na Pradesho were extremely still or sthir.
Born in Chorvira village in approx 1953, Kalidasbhai grew up in a humble household. At the tender age of 7, his parents passed away and he went to live with his older sister Jiviben in Sayla. He studied to standard 5 in Gujarati medium. At the end of lane where he lived was a kandoi shop which he used to sit and observe and soon learnt how to make the savouries and sweets such as ganthia and mithai. At the age of 15 he started his own kandoi business in the Sayla bazaar.
He had a straightforward, humble and ethical nature. From a young age he had an interest in True dharma, or spirituality. In his hands came Shrimad Rajchandra’s Vachanamrut book, and he undertook a deep study of this collection of letters. He began to strive on the spiritual path as shown by Shrimadji. In Sayla itself he came across a self-realised True Guru, Shree Shyamaldasbhai. From his Guru, due to his previously bound punya, he was bestowed Gurugam Beejgnan - the seed of True knowledge and the inner path of meditation. With this tool he became inwardly still and realised his soul. He achieved what was key during the human birth and cemented his freedom from this cycle of life and death.
He continued to strive and attained great inward heights. Despite not having studied, his grasp of poetry and language was such that he composed over 50 poems illustrating the inner path and the joy of self-realisation. His inspiring poetry guides us to awaken from the slumber of ignorance, as we have done for infinite time, and to realise our true nature.
Mirabai
Mirabai also known as Meera was born in the 16th Century into the royal family of Kurki district of Palli, Rajasthan, India.
At a very young age Meera was gifted an idol of Lord Krishna and told that he was her true beloved. She took this to heart and the journey of her life took her to meet her beloved in true form. Her poetry displays her conviction for none other then her protector and love, her Krishna. Despite the poison that her in-laws and worldly life fed her, her complete offering and stead fast meditation at the feet of her Lord meant that all turned to the nectar of purity as she immersed herself into the bliss of enlightenment.

Kabir
Kabir was a 15th-century Indian mystic poet and saint, whose writings contributed to Hinduism's Bhakti movement and his verses are found in Sikh's scripture Adi Granth.
Kabir was born into a Muslim family of weavers in the Indian city of Benares. Yet his open mind and spiritual curiosity meant he was profoundly influenced by his teacher Ramananda who introduced him to the inner path of enlightenment. Kabir immersed himself in meditation, devotion and contemplation. In his poetry he weaves his inner journey and colours himself in the hue of the lord. His verses are often challenging to the reader, alerting one to the difference between the illusionary world and the reality of Truth, urging one to awaken and laughing at the curiosities of attachment and delusion.
