Paramguru was the messenger of Kaival karta -the supreme power in universe. He had not taken birth on our planet earth. He has directly landed on our planet through his special powers. This is what we call Pragatya. There is a great story how this Paramguru Pragatya took place.
This is a story of nearly 248 years age. According to Hindu calendar it occured on 2nd day in the month of maha in hindu year 1829, they call it 'Maha sud Beej sanvat 1829'. It is the story of small jungle area near village Kasor in western India, in the state of Gujarat. Today this place is known as Balkuver after the other name of Paramguru.
A lady was passing by through the jungles of Balkuver. Her name was Het Baa. She was carrying her a baby boy in her arms. She was going to her parent's house from her in laws house in Sarsa town. After walking a long distance, she felt thirsty. It was a time when people didn't carried water bottle. They just drank water the water bodies or reservoirs near them. So she started looking for the source of water. And suddenly she finds a small pond nearby.
Looking at the pond she went towards it. She kept her baby nearby and went to drink water. With her beautiful hands she was drinking the water from pond and quenching her thirst. On the other end, a wild animal called 'nar' which was similar to Fox came and hunted her baby. It took the baby along and went. Het Baa returns to take her baby after drinking the water. But she could not find her baby where she left him. She started searching around for the baby. She could not find it anywhere. She got tensed and started crying. She started questioning to herself that what will she tell to her in laws and her husband. In this stressful condition she started crying. Walking through the jungles looking for the baby and tears in her eyes.
After walking a lot in the jungles, she found that there was child sitting beneath the tree. She went there. She noticed that the child was trying to say something to her. He informed her that he is Paramguru and he came from kaival dham. He has come to help her. There was some better conversation between the both. ParamGuru sad that he will come with her as her baby.He explained that it was the good deeds done by her in the last life that she will get the blessings of Paramguru in this life. Paramguru said that he has come to help her. She took Paramguru as her baby went to the village.
Later in the life Param Guru took sanyas started spreading the message of supreme Power, the Kaival Karta.
Today every year this day is celebrated as the Pragatya divas or mah sud beej in many villages and towns in India. Many of the followers of Paramguru celebrated in the different ways. There are programs organised in the Balkuver where we have a great temple of paramguru Maharaj popularly known as Balkuver. Devotees lightened the earthen lamp that are equal in numbers to the number of years it has been taken to the Paramguru Pragatya.
