Aghor at a Glance

The Immortal Words of the Supremely Venerable Avadhoot Baba Bhagvan Ram "There is no place not only in the 'Jambu continent' (India) or the world, or even in the entire solar system, so sacred as our sacred city Kashi, nor a place so full of divine souls as it is.

The tradition of the Vishveshvara Siddhas (the Yogis accomplished in the state of being characteristic of Shiva in His Lord of the world manifestation) has continued in Kashi from time immemorial, and has flowed like a veritable Ganges of knowledge. This tradition which began from Shiva Himself gave rise to great personalities from time to time. This tradition had been dormant since the time of the aghori Bhairavacharya (5th_6th century B.c.). Baba Keenararn reignited the dying (flame for the sake of society's good. In Baba's company people routinely got lifted from their miseries, got answers to questions even without asking them, and found peace of mind effortlessly. One felt one's soul elevated simply by being in His presence. Baba roamed all four comers of the sacred land of India and witnessed for himself the suffering of people and kept striving to remove it, feeling moved by it. Finally, Baba ignited the akhand dhooni (never-dying sacred fire) in that very century (l6th century), with wood brought from the cremation ground.
