Description
We read in Ghanshyam Charitra about Shriji Maharaj’s divine, inspiring and miraculous childhood. After the passing away of his parents Ghanshyam Maharaj renounced the world and sojourned in the forests. He was then known as Nilkanth Varni. He travelled to various pilgrim places in India for seven years. Many interesting anecdotes found in the various accounts of Nilkanth’s life are narrated here. We hope that they will enlighten and inspire youths to higher spiritual endeavours.

Summary
The stories of the extraordinary life of the Lord narrated in Nilkanth Charitra is based on the established shastras of the Swaminarayan Sampradaya. For the convenience of readers, a map indicating Nilkanth’s travels throughout India has also been incorporated.
