Bhakta Bogharam was born on Monday 1976, at the Jashapar, District of Bhanvad in Saurashtra. When he was 18 years old, he gave up material life and went to Mt. Girnar near Junaghad to worship God.

Later, he moved to the village Bordi in the state of Porbandar and he was doing Bhakti there. He used to chant one hundred thousand names of God daily and in total forty million in a year!
