How it came about : During Yogibapa's time, Pramukh Swami would do his puja in the Akshar Deri at Gondal. When he finished he would leave it hanging on one of the pillars there. Sometime between 1965/1966, someone stole Swamishri's puja. Hence, Yogibapa gave him a new one. But a few months later, the old puja was found but unfortunately some murti's were missing. Bhagatji Maharaj's murti was given to Pujya Viveksagar Swami (this murti is prasadi as it was given to Swamishri by Shastriji Maharaj). In 1971, Yogibapa suffered a heart attack and was unable to perform puja. Therefore, on his behalf Swamishri would perform his puja for him. To this very day, Swamishri does that puja, which was previously owned by Yogibapa.

Swamishri has a PRASADI BOX in his puja. You may have noticed that after completion of his mala, he takes a few odd things in his fingers, and rolls them in water. Here is what they are:

Shreeji Maharaj's prasadi mala bead.

Shreeji Maharaj, Shastriji Maharaj and Yogiji Maharaj's bone/ashes.

Swamishri's Shikshapatri.

Shastriji Maharaj's prasadi mala bead. He also dips a CLOTH into water for prasadi. This cloth is of two parts and was given to Swamishri from Yogibapa.
