That is The Lord is boundless, His Stories are boundless. When the Lord, the Parama Puruśa1 decides to take the human form, from the moment He is born until the moment He leaves the mortal body, with every second, every breath He achieves His sankalp2 and sets His leela 3. This website is for devotees who get inspired, cherish, and drown in devotion listening to His leela.
At the time of Lord Shiva, scripts were not invented yet 4, but shrutii (spoken) languages were prevalent. Hence a large portion of Lord Shiva’s stories were eventually lost. During Lord Krishna’s time, script was already invented. Hence much of His life, events, His leelas were documented. This time we hope to do better. To help with that we want to document all experiences, along with references, chronology, and all possible details of Shrii Shrii Anandamurtii, our beloved Baba. Structure of website is as follows:

Why does He take the human form? What are his purposes? Excerpt from Shrii Shrii Anandmurtii’s discourse5:
…Parama Puruśa is beyond temporal, spatial and personal boundaries. The human heart is not satisfied with that Impersonal Entity. The human heart wants something closer, something more sentimental, something more pleasing. And thatʼs why just to satisfy, just to give pleasure to, His progeny, He comes within the scope of these relative factors. Parama Puruśa becomes Táraka Brahma
Now when the society is in a degenerate or depraved condition, where fissiparous tendencies dominate, where the static principle dominates, it becomes impossible for Parama Puruśa to remain unaffected or unassailed by human sentiments and human cries and human demands. Then and then only does He come in the form of Táraka Brahma. Táraka means “The Liberator.” And that Táraka is the Bábá of the created world. For Him devotees sing, Bábá náma kevalam.
Here we see He has two key purposes when taking the human form. Our subject in this project is the first one. Where He becomes a personal entity which showers love to ALL. Not just those blessed ones who come in His contact, but even those who never met him in person, even those who just by hearing about his stories, experiences, his leela.. even those drown in His devotion.
