“Gan Gan Ganat Bote”

Shri Gajanan Maharaj of Shegaon, was a supreme saint from ‘Vidarbha’ region of Maharashtra. HE appeared in Shegaon on 23rd February 1878 and entered in ‘Maha-samadhi’ on 8th of September 1910 (Rishi Panchami, a day after Ganesh Chaturthi). In these 32 years Maharaj travelled from place to place often without clothes, summer or winter. HE would appear in any one’s house as per their desire for Darshan or to show them the devotional path. HE would eat anything even food thrown away or what came HIS way. HE was giving us the message “Food is Brahma, don’t waste it. Annam Brahmeti. Food is God.”

In such a short period of 32 years, HE enlightened many people by HIS legendary charisma. HIS devotees believe HIM as incarnation of Lord Ganesha and Lord Dattatreya.
