Question: ( August 29, 2019 ) Is Mahavatar Babaji Still Alive?

Is Mahavatar Babaji still alive or real? Sometimes I believe he is real and sometimes I don’t. While meditating, I feel his presence and he answers my questions, but I still have doubts. Can you guide me to get rid of these doubts and help me receive Babaji’s blessings?

Answer:

Dear Friend,

Paramhansa Yogananda assures us that Babaji promised to keep his mortal form. So, YES! He is still here. In Yogananda’s Autobiography of a Yogi, Chapter 33, Babaji’s actual words are quoted:

“‘Be it so,’ Babaji said solemnly. ‘I will never leave my physical body. It will always remain visible to at least a small number of people on this earth. The Lord has spoken His own wish through your lips.’”

Anyone who thinks of Babaji with reverence will receive an instant blessing!
