Kakaji
FOR THE FUTURE OF THE DIVINE FELLOWSHIP
Diagnosed with throat cancer, in early 1950, Nirgun Swamiji fell very ill in Mumbai. On February 11, 1950, Shastriji Maharaj also arrived in Mumbai. Both stayed at Nandaji's bungalow. Shastriji Maharaj instructed Nirgun Swamiji to be taken to Pena (some miles south of Mumbai) for ayurvedic treatment, and then he headed for Gujarat. Shastriji Maharaj asked Kantibhai to take care of Nirgun Swamiji.

From Atladra, Shastriji Maharaj came to Sarangpur in April 1950, where he talked about Yogi Bapa's glory. He then came to Ahmedabad in May. He sent a letter to Dadubhai to especially come. And on May 21 in Amli Vali Pol (old temple location in Ahmedabad, which served as a headquarters),[20] Shastriji Maharaj appointed 28-year old Narayanswaroopdasji as the president[21] of the group. Shastriji Maharaj expressed that though Narayanswaroopdasji was young, he was very bright and capable, and should remain under Yogi Bapa's command.
Nirgun Swamiji had been brought to Anand because the treatment in Pena was not successful. On May 30, after offering his services to the Akshar-Purushottam cause, Nirgun Swamiji passed away.
KAKAJI'S LIFE IN BRIEF
Dadubhai Patel was born on June 12, 1918. Exceptional as a child, it was obvious that he had a divine destiny. Affectionately known as Dadukaka or Kakaji, he lived a life of perfect devotion to Lord Swaminarayan, and was an example of unfaltering friendliness.
On February 3, 1952, by the grace of Yogi Bapa, Kakaji went into a 3-day samaadhi at the Gondal temple in front of the moorti of Ghanshyam Maharaj. His body was medically dead, while his soul traveled to all the heavens, culminating in the highest abode of Akshardham. There he saw Lord Swaminarayan "in-person" and also saw that Lord Swaminarayan resided in gunaateeta saints, his gurus Shastriji Maharaj and Yogi Bapa. Returning to his body, Kakaji now possessed unlimited supernatural powers. He was able to see and hear things many miles away, he knew the past, future, and present, he could make impossible tasks possible, and he raised to great spiritual heights everyone that came into his contact.
