पुष्टिमार्ग एवं पंचम पीठ का इतिहास

SACRED HISTORY & CHRONOLOGY

The divine path of Pushtimarg was revealed by Jagadguru Shrimad Vallabhacharya Mahaprabhuji during the 15th century. It is the path of pure non-dualism (Shuddhadvaita) where devotees surrender completely to the grace (Pushti) of Shri Krishna.

Following Mahaprabhuji, his divine second son Shri Vitthalnathji Gusainji organized the sacred Ashtachhapa poets, enriched Haveli Sangeet, and entrusted seven eternal Nidhi Swaroops to his seven sons, giving rise to the Sapta Peeth of Pushtimarg.
