Baba is you wiki1/4/2023 ![]() ![]() In Vrindavan, local inhabitants addressed him by the name of Chamatkari Baba ("miracle baba"). ![]() When he did tapasya and sadhana at Vavania Morbi in Gujarat, he was known as Tallaiya Baba. During this time he was known under many names, including: Lakshman Das, Handi Wallah Baba, and Tikonia Walla Baba. Thereafter he wandered extensively throughout Northern India. Baba lived in the village of Neem Karoli for a while and was named by locals. Later a train station was built at the village of Neem Karoli. Baba gave his blessings and the train proceeded. ![]() The officials agreed and Neem Karoli Baba boarded the train joking, "What, is it up to me to start trains?" Immediately after his boarding the train, it started, but the train drivers would not proceed unless the sadhu blessed them to move forward. Neem Karoli agreed to board the train on two conditions: 1) the railway company promise to build a station at the village of Neem Karoli (at the time the villagers had to walk many miles to the nearest station), and 2) the railway company must henceforth treat sadhus better. After several attempts at starting the train, someone suggested to the conductor that they allow the sadhu back on to the train. After forcing Baba off the train, the conductor found that the train would not start again. Ram Dass tells a story that Baba Lakshman Das boarded a train without a ticket and the conductor decided to halt the train and force Neem Karoli Baba off of the train at the village of Neem Karoli, Farrukhabad district ( U.P). Neem Karoli Baba, known at the time as Baba Lakshman Das (also spelled "Laxman Das"), left his home in 1958. He later returned home, at his father's request, to live a settled married life. After being married by his parents at the age of 11, he left home to become a wandering sadhu. Lakshman Narayan Sharma was born around 1900 in the village Akbarpur in Firozabad district of Uttar Pradesh, India, to a wealthy Brahmin family. ![]()
