We have a new spiritual guru and guide on the block: Baba Bageshwar Dham. He is like any other babas: he claims he can heal people and gives them strange, quick solutions to people’s problems
He is even known to read people’s minds and offer them a way out of their miseries without the people even telling him anything.
One organization from Maharashtra decided to challenge this. They asked the baba to perform the miracle of mind reading on 10 people of their choice. What the Baba did was pretty predictable. He cut short his visit to Maharashtra and ran away
He was also in news for not allowing a person from a lower caste to touch his feet
But despite such problematic streaks, the baba is still very popular among the people. The same could be seen in the cases of earlier babas like Ram Rahim and Asaram Bapu
So, why is it that Indians regularly flock to these babas and they don’t seem to care about their wrongdoings?
This is what we talk about in this video. We also touch upon why such blind belief is problematic and what we could do to address this problem.
