HH Acharya Shri Swami Govind Dev Giri is well-known not only in India, but also overseas due to his spellbinding discourses on Srimad Bhagavat, Ramayan, Mahabharat and other ancient, holy books of spiritual sciences. However, his multi- dimensional and inspiring personality doesn't only resonate with his devotion to spiritual sciences and holy scriptures. HH Swami Govind Dev Giri (Kishor Madan Gopal Vyas) was born in 1949 in a pious, Brahmin family that was settled down in Belapur, a small village in Ahmednagar district of Maharashtra. The long family tradition of the study of ancient spiritual sciences inherited him the legacy of devotion and religiosity. After completing primary education in his native village, he joined Tatvadnyan Vidyapeeth founded by HH Pandurang Shastri Aathavale. The organization launched the revolutionary socio-religious movement called Swadhyaya. Under young Swami Govind Dev Giri (Kishorji) studied Bachelor Of Arts from Philosophy under Pandurang Shastri’s attentive guidance and kind blessings. To further his studies, he went to Varanasi, the spiritual capital of India, and accomplished the coveted degree of ‘Darshan Acharya'. While studying in Varanasi, he was fortunate to receive guidance from the renowned Vedic scholar, Vedamoorti Dr. Vishwanath ji Dev. Furthering the 120 years old family tradition, he first rendered a religious discourse on Shrimad Bhagavat in his own native village at the age of 17. Swami ji has been giving discourses since he completed his studies 30 years ago on Shrimad Bhagavat, Ramayana, Mahabharat, Dnyaneshwari, Dasbodh, Yoga Vasishtha and other precious and ancient books of spiritual literature that form the very foundation of Indian culture. His discourses are held continuously not only in India but also in several foreign countries including Nepal, Canada, United States, Great Britain etc. Impressed by his enchanting and captivating elocution, Late Thakur Jaidev Singh had showered laurels on him while Param Acharya (head-priest) of Kanchi Kamakoti Peeth blessed him with a remark that he would be the spiritual successor of HH late Dongareji Maharaj. Inspired by the life of Swami Vivekananda, Acharyashri sees himself as a strong spokesman of this nation, its culture and religion and a sentinel and guardian of a person’s spiritual emancipation. Devotion to God as well as love for human beings is the source of energy for his relentlessly carried out Karma yoga (dutiful deeds). He is the closest initiated disciple of HH Shankaracharya of Kanchi Kamakoti Peeth. Since he is a committed celibate, he does not have his own family. Donations and endowments received during programs of his discourses are spent for the benefit of the society through the medium of various undertakings and institutions that he had founded. HH Swami Govind Dev Giri (Acharya Kishorji Vyas receives initiation of ‘Param Hansa Sanyas’ (Renouncement of the highest spiritual order) at the auspicious hands of HH Swami Satyamitrananda Giri ji at the holy place of Haridwar on the banks of river Ganga on Sunday, April 30, 2006. Following his Sanyas initiation he adorned a new name, Shri Govind Dev Giriji Maharaj. This initiation ceremony was held with the blessings of HH Shri Jayendra Saraswatiji, the chief of Kanchi Kamkoti Peeth.  Big text   Big text   Big text   Big text
