The walking Lord of Varanasi – Sri Thrailanga Swamiji

Pranams at the lotus feet of Swamiji!

Once many English officials and women were arrived in Panchaganga Ghat and noticed a naked saint wandering shamelessly, they were infuriated and filed a complaint against naked Swamiji, new officer arrested Swamiji, the news of Swamiji’s arrest spread across the city like a forest fire and people were worried and expected something terrible going to happen this time.   English officer decided to keep an eye on Swamiji, therefore he took the job of supervision of Swamiji, within a few minutes of his arrest, they could see Swamiji walking on the courtyard freely, English officer shouted at his assistants for their irresponsibility, assistants pleaded him that it was not their mistake  Swamiji  out of the cell, asked the officer to check the prison which was locked with two heavy locks, they explained their pathetic  situation whenever they get hold of Swamiji he disappears with magical powers, the officer checked the cell it was full of water with an absurd smell, he asked the assistants but Swamiji replied that he want to pass urine in the night, so he did it, that is too little, later came out of the cell and wanted to roam around in the open air, it was not the fault of his assistants, English officer was not willing to believe any of these, so ordered to arrest Swamiji again, after sometime Swamiji appeared before him stark naked, Swamiji spoke ‘ A Western nonbeliever know nothing about Indian ascetics? You cannot keep me locked, because you have no power to do that, in future never miss-behave like this to a holy saint, otherwise you cannot save yourself from his anger.” Before listening to the whole speech of Swamiji, English Officer fell unconscious, the whole court was in chaos, Swamiji has vanished long back.  Once again an order was passed no one should disturb Thrailanga Swamiji and his spiritual practices; he is free to walk unclothed all over the place.
