Introduction Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj is the 5th original Jagadguru today. In the past, only four saints have been acknowledged as original Jagadgurus. They are Jagadguru Shri Shankaracharya, Jagadguru Shri Ramanujacharya, Jagadguru Shri Nimbarkacharya and Jagadguru Shri Madhavacharya. Jagadguru Shri Kripaluji's masterly reconciliation of all the scriptures and varying philosophies delivered in Sanskrit stupefied all the foremost scholars of Kashi Vidvat Parishat, Varanasi, India (a body of 500 topmost scholars of India who collectively represent the seat of spiritual learning). They were so impressed by His unsurpassable spiritual wisdom and loving Divine Personality that they |

honored Him with special title of 'JAGADGURUTTAM' (Supreme amongst all Jagadgurus) and also declared Him as 'BHAKTI - YOG - RASAVATAR' (Descension of Divine Love and Bliss) on Jan 14, 1957.
At present there are eleven main religions in the world. They all appear to propagate contradictory views regarding the path towards the supreme goal of Happiness. In fact there are contradictions within each religion itself. Jagadguru Shri Kripaluji Maharaj reconciles all these apparently opposing views and expounds a universal path that respects all religions.
| Philosophy - Key Points |  |
Meditation (Sadhana) |
Although one learns the skill of meditation by actually practising it, one must try to follow the basic instructions given by Jagadguru Kripalu Ji Maharaj.
Mind is the life and soul of the meditation . While meditating, the mind should be focused on the Naam, Roop, Guna, Leela, Dham or the Saints of God.
While meditating, one must bring a feeling of extreme powerlessness or deenata . The feeling should be stronger than a helpless grass blade which is crushed all the time and can do nothing.
The Sadhak should practise extreme tolerance like the stem of a tree. Whatever happens in the world, the effort should be to keep the mind in God and Guru only.
The Sadhak should feel that God and Guru are sitting right in front of him and that the form he is visualizing is Real and Divine.
The Sadhak should get the feeling that the seperation from God is the reason for his sorrow and grief. The Sadhak should shed tears and long for God to appear.
