WATCH | Inside Bageshwar Dham

Описание: Dhirendra Krishna Garg, also known as Bageshwar Baba, comes from a family of priests, and his grandfather was the head priest. Bageshwar Dham, located in Madhya Pradesh’s Chhatarpur district, has become a major spiritual hub. His image is everywhere—on walls, posters, road signs, and merchandise in the bustling temple marketplace.

When asked about his growing popularity, he simply says, “Because more people believe in God!”—a statement met with cheers and applause. He also speaks about the absence of a dedicated nation for Hindus, unlike those for Muslims or Jews, and advocates for greater recognition of Hindu identity.

Bageshwar Dham’s rapid expansion has transformed the once-small village into a thriving spiritual and commercial centre. With thousands of homestays, shops, and businesses emerging, the region has seen a surge in visitors and residents alike. While acknowledging the economic growth, Baba emphasises the need for cleanliness and self-sufficiency within the community.

On matters of faith and identity, he calls for unity among Hindus worldwide and envisions a future where India becomes a refuge for Hindus facing persecution elsewhere. While maintaining that he has no issue with other religions, he asserts the importance of preserving Sanatan Dharma and ensuring a place where Hindus can freely practise their beliefs.
