Atmarpit Kothariji

Atmarpit Kothariji was blessed with the opportunity of closely assisting Pujya Gurudevshri in the making and compiling of His Ph.D. thesis on Shri Atmasiddhi Shastra – the spiritual masterpiece of Shrimad Rajchandraji. During this phase, Kothariji was deeply touched by the countenance, compassion, devotion and divinity of Pujya Gurudevshri and committed to spending the rest of his life only for his personal spiritual upliftment and serving the Lord.

At a tender age of 18, he embraced Atmarpit Diksha and thereby after years of contributing to the Mission was bestowed with the title of ‘ji’ in 2016 signifying the undertaking of higher vows.

Since the inception of Shrimad Rajchandra Ashram, Dharampur in 2001, Kothariji has played a monumental role in the overall administration and monitoring of all the Ashram activities. He also served as the editor of the Mission’s monthly magazine, Sadguru Echoes for many years.

As a swadhyaykar, Atmarpit Kothariji has conducted shibirs on various compositions of Shrimad Rajchandraji like Hey Prabhu, Apurva Avsar and Kshamapana across the globe. He has been greatly instrumental in actualising Pujya Gurudevshri’s vision of initiating seekers on the path of self-discovery.
