Gopalrao Gund was the Revenue Circle Inspector of Kopargaon who became a total devotee after being blessed with a son by Maharaj. His devotion manifested in several significant contributions to the village. According to Chapter 0, he initially planned to rebuild the dilapidated Masjid and collected many stones for the project. However, Maharaj did not grant permission for this. Instead, with Maharaj's command, the stones were repurposed to build the Shani temple and renovate other temples in the village. Furthermore, it was Gopalrao Gund who first conceived the idea of holding an annual fair, or Urs, in honor of Maharaj, an event that continues to this day on Ram Navami.
