Lessons from a Smoky Night: The Aghori Who Cursed Us

[Though this story happened around 2008, I didn’t have a camera back then, so the attached photos are from a later date, around 2010 to 2015. We have no photo of the young aghori baba from the story, nor did we ever see him again.]

Over the years I have eaten many strange things given by sadhus, and many other things I avoided eating for various reasons. Its something people won’t understand unless you live with many sadhus over a long time.

It is a fact that the deity known as Hamsa Vahana in Mayapur is not a deity of Lord Shiva nor that of a Hamsa. It is the remains from a destroyed temple and was originally a water spout carved in the shape of a Makara (half elephant, half crocodile). Its very clear if you look at the carving up close. All of the features are very obvious and distinct.

Posted by | Feb 7, 2025 | 1,541 views

The first and second photos were taken around 10 months apart. Above is a picture of Hanuman the bull, also known as “Boney Cow”, taken today. It seems like it was ages ago that he came here, but it hasn’t even been a year.

Back then Lord Jagannatha arranged a miracle to save his life, which you can read about here. Since then he has grown huge, and lives a happy life with his bull family, including Sri Rama.
