Bhaj lo dadaji ka naam bhaj lo harihar ji ka naam jinke charnon charon dham jinka gauri shankar naam
Shri Dada Darbar, also known as the Ashram of Dhunivale Dadaji, is a revered spiritual center located in Khandwa, Madhya Pradesh. It is the sacred Samadhi Sthal of two divine saints — Shri Bade Dadaji Maharaj (Swami Keshwanand Ji) and Shri Chhote Dadaji Maharaj (Harihar Bhole Bhagwan) — who are lovingly worshipped as manifestations of Lord Shiva.
Shri Bade Dadaji Maharaj attained Mahasamadhi on 3rd December 1930 (Margashirsha Shukla Trayodashi), and his beloved disciple Shri Chhote Dadaji Maharaj entered Mahasamadhi on 5th February 1942 (Phalgun Shukla Panchami). Their grand Samadhis, adorned with Shikhars and temple architecture, remain open to devotees 24 hours a day.
Today, 27 spiritual centers (Dham) across India and abroad continue the divine tradition of the sacred Dhuni established by Dadaji Maharaj.
Daily, four Aartis are performed, and sacred Narmada water is used for the Samadhi rituals. Major festivals such as Guru Purnima, Mahasamadhi Anniversaries, and Diwali are celebrated with great devotion.
For example, on Shri Chhote Dadaji’s punyatithi, a Maha Aarti with 108 lamps and a grand Bhandara (community feast) are held, drawing thousands of devotees.
Shri Dada Darbar is not just a religious place, but a divine spiritual space. Devotees experience peace while sitting before the eternal Dhuni, meditating in silence. The calm environment, regular rituals, and festive celebrations bring spiritual upliftment and enrich the cultural life of Khandwa.
