In the long, slow, tedious and meandering march of evolution of human consciousness, culture and civilization, over the millennia, it has been only on rare turning points that Avatarlike multi-faceted geniuses with superhuman attributes have appeared on the human scene to raise human consciousness to a higher nobler plane. The Saint-Scholar-Philosopher Pandit Shriram Sharma Acharya, undoubtedly, belongs to this small rare group of divine vibhutis. Born on September 20, 1911 in a village Anwalkheda in Agra District, U.P., India, Acharyashri's whole life was devoted to Bhaghirath-like tapasya in clearing the way for the emergence of a new Era of universal peace, harmony and goodwill that could be linked with an era of descent of Heavens on the Earth.
Acharyashri (known as Gurudev by the disciples) scrupulously carried out the biddings of his divine Guru, a great Himalayan Yogi. When he was only fifteen years of age he endeavored 24 Mahapurushcharans of Gayatri Mahamantra; took part in the nonviolent struggle for India's independence as a volunteer; went to jail a number of times as part of the freedom struggle, and embarked upon the task of social and moral upliftment through spiritual means with the blessings of Mahatma Gandhi.
Vandaniya Mata Bhagrvatidevi revered to be an incarnation of the Shako of Mother Goddess Durga by the Gayatri Pariwar has been the foremost collaborator and disciple of Gurudev Acharyashri (known as Gurudev by the disciples). She contributed the most in giving concrete shape to the ideals and dreams of her soul-mate.
A sage, a visionary, a social reformer, Acharyashri propounded 100 points Yug Nirman Yojna for social, intellectual and spiritual evolution. He lived a simple, disciplined life full of devout austerity, visited the Himalayas several times and attained spiritual eminence and foresight.
He translated the entire Vedic Vangmaya in lucid Hindi with eloquent comprehensive introductions and accomplished a feat of writing more than 2400 enlightening books in Hindi on all aspects of life. His writings encompass far-reaching, sagacious and feasible solutions to the innumerable problems of today. The Gayatri Pariwar fraternity, Shantikunj Ashram (the headquarters of Gayatri Pariwar), an academy for moral and spiritual awakening; Brahmavarchas Research Institute which strives to synthesize science with spirituality, Akhand Jyoti Sansthan, Mathura, Gayatri Tapobhumi, Mathura and thousands of social reform and sadhana centres (Shakti Peeths) around the globe are other grand contributions of Yugrishi Pandit Shriram Sharma Acharya to the modern world.
Millions of people in India and abroad have been fired kindled with missionary enthusiasm and zeal to transform their own lives and the society as a whole in the light of Yugrishi's messages. He voluntarily shed his physical sheath on Gayatri Jayanti, June 2,1990 but even after his physical departure from the scene, the Mission spread to global dimensions and 31 Ashwamedh Yagyas (24 in India, 7 abroad in U.K, U.S.A, Canada, Australia and South Africa) were performed to carry forward the tasks initiated by the Yugrishi.
The establishment of Dev Sanskriti Vishwavidyalaya, aimed at resurrecting the spirit of globally reputed ancient universities like Takshila and Nalanda, is another milestone on the onward march of the Gayatri Pariwar mission towards the renaissance of Divine Culture.
As a futurologist, Acharyashri has demonstrated unique ability to predict the future. During the last decade, when the cold war was at its zenith, he had accurately presaged about the impossibility of a third world war, nuclear non-proliferation and failure of the star-war programme. Some of his predictions of global importance that have come true are highlighted in the Chapter 1 of this booklet. Chapters 2 and 3 present translations of some of his published works pertaining to the changes in the world map, socio-economic order and advent of a Golden Era in the 21s` Century.
The booklet also presents:-Yug Nirman Satsankalp (Solemn Pledge) prescribed by him
as the doctrine of future human religion on which rests the emergence of all-round peace, happiness and bright future. These are the formulae for changing and reforming individuals, their families and the society. They motivate us to concentrate on self-reformation rather than on giving advice to others.
