No one clearly knows about the birth and early life history. “Sant Shri Gajanan Maharaj Sansthan" is the largest temple trust in the Buldhana district from Maharashtra. Maharaj firstly appeared in Shegaon a place from Maharashtra which is in Vidarbh region in 18th century, on 23rd Feb i.e. according to Hindu calendar "Magh Krishna Saptami". He is also known as incarnation of Lord Shiva, Lord Dattatraya as well as Lord Ganesha. Devotee call him as Gajanan Maharaj because he is always used to chant the "Gan Gan Ganat bote". It has a greate meaning, first "Gan" means count, Individual soul, second "Gan" means a person or a devotee, who is similar as Brahma. And to suggest it the word "Ganat" is used. Bote is corrupt form of Bate, the overall meaning is "Individual soul is brahma himself". That is God is omnipresent.

Best Time to read this book which is mentioned in this book is
1. Dashmi, Ekadashi, Dwadashi: = That is on 10th, 11th, 12th day of full moon or no moon day. In this type of parayan read first 9 chapters on 1st day then 7 chapters on 2ed day and remaining 5 on last day.
2. Gurupushyamrt Yog: = When Thursday and pushya nakshatra on same day read all the chapters at a time.
Read "Shri Gajanan Vijay” granth when you are in deep trouble will give you hope and confidence to overcome your problems. Reading it over and over again is a good way of remind yourself that you are not alone he (Maharaj) is with you and that feeling will gives us strength to handle worst of situations. Basically I experienced the various miracles of Maharaj from my childhood likewise I wish that when you feel challenged, hopeless at that time read this book you will really feel supported. Reading this book (doing Parayan) will gives you a strength to believe that there is someone for us to survive. When your prayers are answered, do not forget to comment your experiences for the benefit of other devotees. This multilingual app is specially designed for the devotees who are unable to read or understand Marathi they can access the Hindi, Telugu or English language.
I believe that spreading the information of Maharaj is similar to serving Gajanan Maharaj as well as devotees which has been performed using this app.
