Shri Devchandraji (C.E.1581-1655), who will be later known as Nijanand Swami Sat-Guru Dhani Shri Devchandraji, was born to mother Kuverbai and father Mattu Mehta, who used to practice the Radha Vallabhi sect. He was born and raised in the village of Umarkot, Marvad, Sindh–a province of undivided India, which is now in Pakistan.
Those souls of Paramdham, who played in Brij and Raas, came again to this mundane world in the 28th Kaliyug.1 The soul of Consort Shyama made her abode into Devchandraji, the jiva of the King Devapi who prayed in their previous birth for eternal salvation. The prophecy of Shrimad Bhagvatam came true.
