Morari Bapu is a globally renowned Indian spiritual leader and a Ram Katha narrator from Talgajarda – Gujarat, India.
Morari Bapu was born in Talgajarda village, Bhavnagar, on Maha Shivaratri on 2nd March 1946 into a Margi Sadhu (Nimbarka Sampradaya) family. His grandfather and guru, Tribhuvana Das Bapu, introduced him to the spiritual depth of Goswami Tulsidas’ Ram Charita Manas and encouraged him to recite its verses. Bapu has a strong spiritual lineage which laid the foundation for his own lifelong journey.
At just 14, he began narrating Ram Katha under a banyan tree in his village. Over the years, he has conducted more than 960 Kathas worldwide, reaching audiences across India and abroad, including Mansarovar, Mount Kailash, Bhusundi Sarovar, Rakshastal, the Vatican, the United Nations HQ New York, and Cambridge University.
Morari Bapu is an advocate for Sanatan Dharam, at the heart of his teachings lie Satya (Truth), Prem (Love), and Karuna (Compassion). He emphasizes spirituality over ritualism and urges freedom from ninda (criticism), dwesh (hatred), and irsha (envy). He lovingly calls listeners “flowers,” not followers. Bapus Kathas are open to all, transcending caste, gender, or social barriers.

The Ramayana is one of India’s two great Sanskrit epics attributed to the sage Valmiki. As a tale of Lord Ram’s life and exile, it is both a moral and spiritual guide, upholding the triumph of dharma (righteousness) over adharma (evil). Over the centuries, the epic has been retold in countless languages and traditions.
Goswami Tulsidas’ Shri Ramcharitmanas (16th century) holds a unique place. Composed in Awadhi, it carried the story of Lord Ram out of the Sanskritic sphere and into the hearts of the common people. Its seven kands (cantos) mirror the structure of Valmiki’s epic.
For Morari Bapu, the Ramcharitmanas is both anchor and compass. Every one of his nine-day Kathas is rooted in this text. He begins by selecting two lines from Tulsidas’ verses, which then become the central theme of the discourse. Around them, Bapu blends scripture, philosophy, poetry, humour, and contemporary reflection, bringing the timeless wisdom of the Ramcharitmanas into dialogue with the concerns of modern life.
