Paramhansa Sadguru Phulaji Baba
A brief introduction :
Shri. Paramhansa Phulaji Baba was born on 30th of August in 1925, in a village 'Sawali' in Aundh Nagnath taluka in the Hingoli District of Maharashtra. Baba's father, Shri Dhonduji Ingle was a popular and pious personality
among the Andh tribe people to which he belonged. His mother, Punjabai Ingle was a devoted, serene, religious and virtuous women who would work on daily wages for the sake of her family. However things were merely enough to feed the family and they lived a hand to mouth existence. No one can understand the ways of God. The entire family reached Andhra Pradesh in search of work for sustenance and became permanent residents of Patnapur village in Utnoor Taluka of Adilabad district. That was the period around 1934. They started cultivating the land granted by the Government. Thus the family would work hard for a living but poverty seemed to be their eternal follower. Their condition did not change and finally once again they changed their minds deciding to return to Hingoli, this time it was 'Takali' village which the family selected for residence. The members of family multiplied with the passage of time but the economic condition remained the same. Finding it excessively difficult to continue in such poverty they once again traveled to Patnapur. Baba would help his father in the fields right from his childhood. Poverty did not allow him gain education in schools. In childhood itself he and his sanguines were orphaned by the death of parents. He had two sisters and a brother. These children were provided shelter by their counsin Kaluji Ingle. The child Phulaji was honest, respectful and follower of truth. These qualities made him dearer to Kaluji Ingle. After his marriage, he and his brother decided to become self reliant and started clearing the fields, that had been covered by forest, for
agriculture. They worked harder day and night to overcome the poverty and started marching steadily towards success. Since his childhood by virtue of his purity, Baba showed the signs of sainthood. In those days, the officials,
head persons of Gram Panchayats, etc. would harass the poor people and force them to behave like servants. They used to take advantage of people's poverty which Baba could never tolerate. Baba used to engage in dialogue
with the village representatives, officials to gain justice for the poor people. With the passage of time, Baba started receiving the company of educated persons prominent among them was Shri. Ganpat Vadgure. In the company
of Ganpat Guruji Baba learnt the basic vowels and letters which enhanced the desire in him to somehow read the religious texts. Following the path of religion and by the virtue of pure nature his life experienced a great transformation and he gave up non-vegetarian diet and drinking. He put an end to violence. Because of his being fixed in purity he would experience great joy in every activity. This helped him effectively finding a path out of any
kind of problem that presented before him. Among such economic, social, psychological happenings itself did Baba start experiencing the awakening of the inherent power of Yoga. In a society so overpowered by ignorance and
superstitions it was exceedingly difficult to sustain the path of Yoga but in such situation itself Baba showed the signs of Yoga. Though in modern age, the superstitious and ignorant people could not understand the process of various stages of divine Yoga, Baba was experiencing. People started believing that Baba was taken over by some
spirit or had come under the spell of some black magic. The likes of Guruji however could realize that it wasn't anything else but the symptoms of Sainthood. Finally the power of Yoga in him proved, indeed. Today, Paramhansa sadguru Shri. Phulaji Baba is known as a Saint, a Yogi. He preaches true religion and teaches every person to follow
the path of truth.
