He compiled ‘The Atma Siddhi Shastra,’ a spiritual poetic reference in just one sitting of 90 minutes. It is highly revered as a Holy Scripture for spiritual aspirants.
The Atma Siddhi Shastra has 142 Stanzas that narrate Shrimad Rajchandra’s personal and divine experience of Self-Realisation.
As explained by many enlightened Souls, it spreads the essence of infinite omniscient of God’s Preaching. Each of the 142 Stanzas of The Atma Siddhi Shastra hold a reference to teachings from currently available ancient 1500 scriptures.
