Who was Gopalrao Gund and what was his relationship with Maharaj?

📖 Chapter 0

Gopalrao Gund was the Revenue Circle Inspector of Kopargaon who came for Maharaj's darshan. According to Chapter 0, he had three wives but no children and was eventually blessed with a son by Maharaj's grace. He became a devout follower and once planned to rebuild the dilapidated Masjid, collecting many stones for the purpose. However, Maharaj did not permit this, instead commanding that the stones be used to build the Shani temple and renovate other village temples. Gopalrao also conceived the idea of holding an annual fair, or Urs, in Maharaj's honor, which was later established on Ram Navami by Maharaj's command.
