Babubhai Patel (1916 - 2006) was the elder brother of Kakaji. With Yogi Bapa's blessings, Kakaji and Pappaji helped provide a path for women to renounce worldly life and dedicate to God in the Akshar-Purushottam branch of the Swaminarayan sampraday. Pappaji facilitated the creation of a separate establishment for such women called Gunatit Jyot. Today, Gunatit Jyot has over 450 dedicated sisters, under the guidance of eight principal elders: Sonaba, Shantaben, Taraben, Jyotiben, Didi, Deviben, Jasuben and Paduben. More info...

We seek Pappaji's blessings to see God in and serve all devotees.
