In his previous life, His Holiness Mahatapasvi Shri Kumarswamiji was in Gyanganj (Jnanganj) Ashram in the Himalayas. His name was Swami Kshemananda then and His Guru was Paramhansa Swami Nemananda Ji. In Jnanganj Ashram there are two branches - Yoga and Science. Swami Kshemananda Ji was a student in Yoga branch. In this life, as Shri Kumarswamiji, He was in close and continuous contact with Gyanganj Ashram. Gyanganj Ashram has many adepts working for the benefit of mankind and the whole universe. To mention a few names of the adepts of Gyanganj Ashram - Paramhansa Maha Tapa Ji Maharaj, Paramhansa Bhrigu Rama Ji, Paramhansa Nemanand Ji, Paramhansa Abhayanand Ji, Paramhansa Jnana-nanda Ji, Paramhansa Vishuddhananda Ji. There are many Bhairavis (women adepts) too - Uma Bhairavi, Shama Bhairavi, Jnana Bhairavi etc. While Paramhansa MahaTapa Ji Maharaj is head of Jnangang Ashram, Uma Bhairavi is head of medical unit of Jnanganj Ashram.
Paramhansa Vishuddhanand Ji Gandhababa is His Holiness Shri Kumarswamiji's Guru-bandhu (brother-disciple) from his past life. Towards the end of His life, Shri Kumarswamiji said to his Gurudeva and the adepts from Gyanganj Ashram that His Sadhana (penance and spiritual practices) was not complete and asked them what should be the next course of action. The adepts asked Shri Kumarswamiji to build a temple with His own money and place the spiritual power which He had accumulated in His 50-year long penanace. At the mandate of the adepts from Gyanganj Ashram, Shri Kumarswamiji built Divya Devalaya, the Divine Temple in 1995 at Tapovan, Dharwad. The Divine Temple does not have any image or idol or deity. It has 7 mantras written on the wall which holds Shri Swamiji's spiritual power. The adepts also told Shri Kumarswamiji that they would send an adept (Siddha-purush) in the Divine Temple. Accordingly Shri Kumarswamiji's Guru-bandhu, Paramhansa Shri Vishuddhanand Ji Gandhbaba has come to stay in the Divine Temple at Dharwad in his subtle body.

"|| Parabrahma Paramtamne ||
|| Jagat Utpatti-Sthiti-Pralaya Karay ||
|| Hari Hara Brahmay Trigunatmane Namaha ||"
Oh! Divine beyond all descriptions, Supreme Soul, you are the creator of this world, in you resides this whole world and you are also the Destroyer of this Universe. You are Vishnu, you are Shiva. I bow to you who has threefold qualities of Sattva, Rajas and Tamas.
3.
The Whole World is Temple of God
God Resides in All
Self-less Service is True Worship
Well-wishing of All is Man's Freeship.
4. Do not search for your centre of gravity in the outside world. This will be a directional illusion. Realize your own Divine Self in your uncovered Self and experience your divinity. This experience will open for you the treasure house of all mysteries of birth and death. And when that root is annihilated, there is no leaf, no fruit on the worldly side.
