Samadhi date
1848 CE

Morar Saheb was born as Mānsinghji Vaghela in Tharad into a Rajput royal family and raised as a prince in Deesa. Despite privilege, he grew inwardly dissatisfied and began seeking truth. Around 1779 CE, meeting the awakened saint Ravi Saheb in Vadodara became his “second birth.” Renouncing royal life and succession, Mānsinghji took initiation and became Morar Saheb, embracing vairāgya (detachment) and prema-bhakti (devotion through divine love) Afterward he lived in radical simplicity, begging and redistributing alms as prasāda. Beloved for his humility, he promised his servant Jīvan a single wish. Jīvan asked only for final darśana. When Morar Saheb appeared to have passed, Jīvan protested; honoring his word, Morar Saheb re-entered his body and lived one more year before taking samādhi again. The room of his final year is still preserved in Khambhaliya.
