His devotees consider Anukulchandra to be a 'Yugavatar' (an avatar of Lord Vishnu for the current age).

His teachings encompassed all aspects of life, including religion, spiritualism, education, marriage, economics, and politics. A central tenet was the importance of "Ista-vriti" (single-minded devotion to the Ideal, or Guru) and adherence to a living Ideal (Satguru) for self-realisation and societal welfare.

He established the Satsang organisation to help people achieve "Being and Becoming" through simple, practical techniques. The organisation actively promotes its principles and holds numerous spiritual events and celebrations, such as its birth anniversaries.

His philosophy emphasised the importance of Dharma, of respecting superiors (such as parents and teachers), and of living a life that promotes existence and counteracts evil. (ANI)
