About
About Shri Sadguru Bhakt Nivas
A pilgrim guesthouse built on faith, honesty and a priest's duty.
Shri Sadguru Bhakt Nivas is a pilgrim guesthouse on Parbhani Road, Aundha Nagnath — 500 metres from the gate of the 8th Jyotirlinga temple.
The guesthouse is founded and run by Shripad Bhopi, the Head Priest of the Aundha Nagnath Temple. Every day he performs the temple's abhishek and rituals; every day he also receives pilgrims as his guests. This is what makes Bhakt Nivas different — your host is the man who performs the puja you have come for.
What we believe
A pilgrim who travels far to the Jyotirlinga deserves three things: a room near the temple, an honest price, and a host who understands their faith. We built Bhakt Nivas on exactly these three.
