# Samarth Ramdas

Ramdas was one of the greatest saints of the world. He was the inspirer of Shivaji. He was born of Suryaji Panth and Renuka Bai in Jamb, Maharashtra, in 1608 A.D. His original name was Narain.

Ramdas was a contemporary of Sant Tukaram. He was a great devotee of Hanuman and Lord Rama. He had Darshan of Lord Rama even when he was a boy. Lord Rama Himself initiated him.He uttered Lord Ram’s name 13 crore (13 followed by seven zeroes) times. As a result of such a tremendous devotion, he was gifted with 8 powers by Lord Ram Himself, who appeared and asked him to start the movement to renew righteousness. Shivaji on Ramdas' advice treated his kingdom as a trust and ruled justly on behalf of God. Ramdas was a gifted composer and He was one of the greatest spiritual poets and supreme sages of India.
"Dasbodh" is a very important composition and Dasbodh was translated in most of the prominent Indian languages, and is available all over the world. Dattatreya appeared and gave darshan to him. He asked all to see Lord Rama in all creatures also, love all, feel Lord’s presence everywhere and surrender unto Him for attaining immortality and eternal bliss.
