In higher realms with Babaji

K Geethanjali, a follower of Mahavatar Babaji, fulfills her lifelong wish of visiting the Master’s cave, only to find herself being drawn to the silence within her inner cave
In higher realms with Babaji

Any Kriyaban (Kriya Yogi) will aspire to accomplish one great pilgrimage in their lifetime: a pilgrimage to the cave of Mahavatar Babaji. I was no exception. Ever since I became his devotee, I too had this strong desire in my mind to visit the guha (cave) of the great Siddha, Mahavatar Babaji, of whom Paramahansa Yogananda speaks about in his book, Autobiography of a Yogi.

Thirty years had to elapse before I was ready to make the Himalayan trip to the Kumaon hills—the time needed for me to be ready to absorb the energies there and get the most out of it.

Dev Bhoomi darshan

And so the blessed day of May 3, 2019 dawned bright and clear. The previous day, my husband and I had reached Delhi from Chennai. There we met my sister and her husband, both Kriyabans from Yogoda Satsanga Society (YSS), and so it was decided that the pilgrimage should commence with a visit to the YSS ashram at Dwarahat, a small town in Almora district in the Kumaon region of Uttarakhand. This Himalayan region, also called Dev Bhoomi, is hallowed by the presence of Mahavatar Babaji, who initiated Lahiri Mahasaya into the ancient technique of Kriya Yoga in 1861 in the Dunagiri mountain, thus making it available to the world.
