“Himalayan Secrets

Many secrets are hidden in the Himalayas. It is said that only spiritual masters can truly realize them. A journey to the Himalayas is not an ordinary trip. Those who have been there say it is a very difficult journey that requires overcoming many challenges.”

“The cave of Babaji, whom superstar Rajinikanth has accepted as his guru, is located in the Himalayas. It is the place where Rajinikanth goes to meditate for many hours. It is said that wherever he goes, there is peace and a heightened spiritual feeling. Now, let us see how to go there easily.”

Mahavatar Babaji and Rajinikanth

Rajinikanth, the famous  actor, is a devoted disciple of Mahavatar Babaji, a spiritual figure for whom there is little historical documentation. Much of what is known about Mahavatar Babaji comes from accounts of those who have had personal encounters with him.

One such account can be found in Paramahansa Yogananda’s autobiography, a widely popular best-seller that has been translated into almost 30 languages and has sold millions of copies worldwide. In this book, Yogananda shares his own experience of meeting Mahavatar Babaji, which has contributed to the popularity and intrigue surrounding this enigmatic figure.

Mahavatar Babaji in South

Mahavatar Babaji is said to be a ‘deathless’ guru who has maintained a youthful form, like a millennial, as The Autobiography of the Yogi says. It is said that Mahavatar Babaji was basically from Cuddalore (in Tamil Nadu) who during later years moved to Rishikesh.

There is still a house in Cuddalore that people say belonged to Mahavatar Babaji or Nagarjuna as  named by his parents. They also say that the last time he was seen in the Himalayas was during 1861-65.

Mahavatar Babaji’s Cave

“The Babaji cave is located at a place called Kukuchina. This Kukuchina place is situated on the Dronagiri mountain. Only 4-5 people can meditate at a time in this cave. Videos of superstar Rajinikanth meditating here are very popular.”

Why Did Rajinikanth Become A Devotee Of Mahavatar Babaji?

It is hard to believe that Rajnikanth, a giant of Indian cinema, has never had any formal English training. The heartthrob of millions of Tamilians started reading Autobiography of a Yogi only back in 99′. That’s the year Padayappa was released. And that is how he got introduced to Babaji’s piece of work. He claims his poor English skills are thanks to Babaji’s book.

Rajinikanth says, “I read the book Autobiography of a Yogi, and one of his pictures emanated a light-spark that went inside my body.

After reading the book and becoming an avid follower of Mahavatar Babaji, Rajinikanth turned to develop his inner being with Kriya Yoga – a practice he credits for positive changes in his life. What began as a quest for physical health was soon transformed into a spiritual journey as Rajinikanth discovered his guru.

In order to create a more universal appeal for Babaji, he also directed a film entitled Baba and in so doing, popularized his spiritual guru. Not surprisingly all of the scenes were actually filmed in caves, as stated by Rajnikanth during filming. The cave exploration scenes from Baba became a very helpful guide for filming the Babaji cave light spark.
