2. Near Nanded (A city in the state of Maharashtra in India);
there is a small place called Yehelgaon. There lived an
extremely pious and illustrious Deshastha Yajurvedi
Brahmin couple named Kashinathpant and Parvati. They
did not have an issue.
After penance for some years; Parvati gave birth on Kartiki
Ekadashi of shaka 1745 i.e. roughly 1823 AD; to a bright son
as Shri Dattatreya had assured her in dream; that he would
incarnate as her son.
They named him Tukaram.
Later he was named Tukaram Chaitanya by his guru;
Swami Chinmayananda of Umarkhed. The other two
disciples of Chinmayananda were Gocharswami and Shri
Shewalkar.
Tukaram Chaitanya later became the spiritual guru of
Brahmachaitanya Maharaj Gondavalekar; around 1860.
The Samadhi of Tukaram Chaitanya is in Yehelgaon and
that of Chinmayananda is in Umarkhed.

3. I never came across anything about Shri Tukaram
Chaitanya in any of y curricular books during my education
till I passed my MD (Physiology).
I have written this small write up as a homage and tribute to
Prof. K. V. Belsare; who wrote the biography of Shri
Brahmachaitanya Maharaj Gondavlekar; and provided this
extremely vital and valuable information to us. It is by
virtue of reading this biography; that I got involved in
NAMASMARAN and understood (though the ultimate
control is of; GOD, cosmic consciousness, or SADGURU):
1. India is unique in her greatest ever treasure of connection
with God (the eternal immortal bliss, the absolute
objective truth, the cosmic consciousness); through;
thousand of her illustrious sons and daughters; the saints,
prophets, seers and yogis.
2. In other words; India’s treasure is; eternal immortal bliss;
personified throughout the history; over millennia.
3. The ultimate solace for any inhabitant of the universe; is
said to be; the eternal immortal bliss; mentioned above.
Nothing else; how much ever hyped; comes to rescue!
4. Hence; when people of the world; get exasperated and
exhausted; by religious, intellectual, ideological and

4. political conflicts and indiscriminate violence on the one
hand; and indulgence that drains the spirit and erodes
from within; on the other; and begin to desperately seek
peace and harmony; they would certainly get it; in India.
5. This is also because; even as India may look sick and
sultry; and be ridiculed and betrayed by her own
inhabitants; from time to time; the places of pilgrimage;
spread in nook and corner of India; ooze out and emanate
ambrosia of eternal immortal bliss; and provide solace to
every visitor; without any kind of discrimination!
6. The seekers of truth from any and every corner of the
world; are not only bound to get the ambrosia of eternal
immortal bliss, in India; but also; the inspiration of the
holistic perspective, policies, plans, programs and their
implementation; so much pivotal and vital in individual
and universal blossoming i.e. holistic renaissance.
