At King Unad’s home in Jetpur, Rāmānand Swāmi handed the reigns of the Sampradāy to Shri Sahajānand Swāmi. Someone raised a concern, “There are many great sadhus. Why were they not handed the reigns of the Sampradāy?” Rāmānand Swāmi replied, “This Nilkanth Brahmachāri is worthy of being prayed to and worshiped by the great, like Rām, Krishna, Vāsudev, Akshar, etc. And I have actually been appointed [as the guru] by him, while he has been liberating countless jivas [since time immemorial]. He is the supreme avatāri, the cause of all the avatārs, such as Rām, Krishna, etc. And he has been born into the family of a brāhmin by the name of Hariprasād. He is worthy of being believed by all, worshiped by all, attained by all. Just as there are infinite types of sounds, touches, sights, tastes, and smells; similarly, Shri Sahajānand Swāmi is above all the avatārs, all the deities, all powers, all the muktas of Akshardhām, and Akshardhām. Moreover, he is transcendental to Akshar, inherently possessing bliss and happiness, all-knowing, pervasive in all places, possesses a divine murti, the greatest cause of all, the bestower of the fruits of karmas, the support of all, the teacher of all, the one who pervades all, worthy of upāsanā by all, worthy of being contemplated by all, inherently complete with all of the sentiments, complete with all wishes, complete with all virtues and powers, devoid of faults, complete with a definite [human-like] form, worthy of being worshiped by all, endowed with all powers, endowed with beauty, endowed with compassion, endowed with infinite redemptive attributes and other divine virtues, a wonder with miraculous powers, fathomless in all respects, an ocean of virtues - these are the characteristics of Shri Sahajānand Swāmi, who is Purushottam Nārāyan, who is offered upāsanā by all, the king of kings, and the cause of all avatārs. Therefore, no one - including Akshar[brahman] - is capable of describing or knowing the virtues of Nilkanth Brahmachāri; so how can I be capable of describing or knowing his virtues? He has come from Akshardhām to liberate countless jivas. I was liberating jivas because of his command, but now that the manifest Purushottam has arrived, he will liberate jivas as according to his powers. Therefore, he is the sovereign of Akshardhām, the Purna Purushottam. And he will grant liberation easily through his devotees that the avatārs of the past granted the jivas. Such is this Nārāyanmuni that I have described to you.” In this manner, Rāmānand Swāmi revealed the powers of Nilkanth Brahmachāri to his paramhansas and satsangis.
