Born in 1917 in Mumbai as Dattaram Madhavrao Gawand, his spiritual quest unfolded early. Though born in comfortable surroundings, he chafed at the convention and hypocrisy of society, and the dehumanizing impact of materialism. But he was the eldest and, on his father's untimely death, had to assume the responsibilities of taking care of his siblings, which included arranging for their marriages. On the third day of the marriage of the youngest sibling, Dada, as he was universally known, disappeared from home to seek his spiritual destiny. After eight months of solitary seeking and questioning at Mount Sajjangad, he experienced a mystical explosion in his inner domain, a sudden flow of timeless energy within, and a state of peace and ecstasy never known before
The total approach organization (TAO) was launched on 8th April 1997 by Prem Nirmal with a mission is to act as a catalyst for the evolution of human consciousness and incorporates the principles of Dada Gawand.
