Becoming a Baba

Baba Rampuri talks about his trials and tribulations in becoming a baba.

“Becoming a baba starts out as an exercise in copying and mimicking. This is to prepare the soil for a great spirit to enter. Many great spirits live in the world of babas, some benign, some horrific. Some spirits pass through whole lineages of yogis, while some might possess individuals. And in some, passes the spirit of Guru Dattatreya, himself.”
