He is worshiped today by many social groups of India as Ishta-deva.

Background

Ramdev is considered to be an incarnation of Vishnu. King Ajmal(Ajaishinh) married Queen Minaldevi, daughter of Pamji Bhati of Chhahan Baru village. The childless king went to Dwaraka and pleaded with Krishna about his wish to have child like him. They had two sons, Viramdev and the younger Ramdev. Ramdev was born on Bhadarva Shukla Dooj in V.S. 1409 at Ramderiya, Undu and Kashmir in Barmer district. Ramdevji was a Tanwar.

Muslims venerate Ramdev as Ramshah Pir or Rama Shah Peer.

Samadhi

Ramdev took Samadhi on Bhadrapada Shukla Ekadashi in V.S. 1442 at the age of 33 years. Dalibai, his ardent follower from Meghwal community, is also buried near his grave, who is said to have taken Samadhi two days before Ramdev

Story Of King Ajmal

As per folk-lore, King Ajmal Tanwar, a descendant of Anangpal Tomar II of Delhi, was king of Pokaran. His wife, Rani Mainaldevi, was daughter of the king of Jaisalmer. After becoming King of Pokran, Ajmal had only two daughters, Lasa and Sugana. One day the king was on a tour of his kingdom. It was monsoon, yet the kingdom had not received any rainfall. On his tour, the king met a few farmers who were on their way to their farms to sow seeds. On seeing the king, they began to return to their homes. Surprised at this act, king asked farmers the reason for their behaviour. When assured that no harm would come to them if they told the truth, the farmers told the king that they believed that seeing a barren king's face while on their way to their fields may cause their crops to fail and therefore they wanted to return to their homes. Ajmal was very sad on hearing this. Being a devotee of Krishna, king decided to go to the Lord's palace in Dwarika.

Ajmal arrived at Dwarka and prayed for many days. Ultimately, in sheer disappointment, he asked Krishna's image the reason for deserving such sorrow. The image did not respond to the king's repeated queries. Angered and raged at this, the king threw a dried laddu at the head of the image. The priest of the temple, considering king to be mad, asked the king to go to the mystic Dwaraka to speak to the Lord. Dwaraka swallowed by the sea many centuries ago, lay at the bed of Arabian sea. The unfearing king dived into the sea to meet the Lord. Pleased at the king's dedication and faith, the Lord granted him a boon. The king asked for Krishna to be born as his son. Lord promised come in the king's house. Soon thereafter, the royal couple gave birth to boy, whom they named, Bhiramdev. After a few years, Krishna took a small form and appeared next to Bhiramdev.
