आचार्य श्री १०८ अनंत कीर्ति जी महाराज महाराष्ट्र प्रान्त के शोलापुर के समीप कड़वी नामक स्थान में जन्म लिया । आपका परिवार धर्म श्रद्धा से बड़ा ही प्रभावित था । बचपन के संस्कारों ने प्रापको मुनि दीक्षा धारण करा दी।
आपके दीक्षा गुरु श्री प्राचार्य पायसागरजी महाराज थे। दीक्षा स्थल अक्कोल था। पाप वयोवृद्ध, ज्ञानवृद्ध एवं अनुभवी तपस्वी थे। अापके सम्बन्ध में ऐसा ज्ञात हुवा कि मुरेना ( ग्वालियर ) में आपका पैर जल गया था । उस समय असह्य पीड़ा होने पर स्वभाव से प्रापने सहन की । आप घन्टों लगातार कठोर तप किया करते थे । अापके प्रवचनों में भारी भीड़ होती थी तथा जनता पर काफी प्रभाव पड़ा।
अन्त में समाधिमरण करके नश्वर शरी: को त्याग दिया । पर आपने अन्तिम समय तक व्रतों का पूर्ण रूप से पालन किया । धन्य है ऐसे फरोषहजयी मुनिराज ।
