Sant Samarth Dada Guru Maharaj has travelled 4 lakh km on foot without food since October 2020

Consumes only 1 litre of Narmada-Jal (water) everyday
Madhya Pradesh Govt. to conduct research

Sagar (Madhya Pradesh) – Sant Samarth Dada Guru Maharaj has not eaten anything for the last 4 -3/4 years. He has been drinking only one litre Narmada River water. Still, he has travelled about 4 lakh kms on foot during this period. He gives lectures for hours without having even a drop of water. People experience unique energy even in his speech.

1. Samarth Dada Guru Maharaj meditates on the banks of River Narmada and performs spiritual practice. He has completed Narmada-Parikrama twice till now.

2. His asceticism/ penance (Tapashcharya) is an unfathomable challenge for modern science; therefore, the Madhya Pradesh (MP) Government with BJP’s Chief Minister Mohan Yadav, has started research on him.

It is a religious observance taken up for the protection of River Narmada

The purpose of Samarth Dada Guru Maharaj taking up such a severe penance is protection and conservation of River Narmada. According to him, Mata Narmada is not only a river but it is a life-saving Goddess and it is our religious duty to maintain her existence. Ganga, Yamuna, Narmada, Godavari and Kaveri are not just rivers but they are like our mothers and it is our duty to protect them.

Editorial Perspective

Such unique power can be acquired only by performing spiritual practice. Such things are beyond science; therefore, now, the Government should treat spiritual practice as an extremely important thing in life for including as a part of the new education policy and help in overall development of children.
