Sidh Shriomani Shri Baba MastNath Ji Maharaj
The life of Sidh Shiromani Baba Mastnath ji is full of miracles and wonders. He is known to be reincarnation of Guru Gorakshnath ji. It was during his time that Math Asthal Bohar was rejuvenated and brought prosperity to math.
He appeared in 1764 in a village named Kansrati in Rohtak district in Haryana. A merchant named Sabala brought him up. He was named Masta. As a child he was known for this charismatic acts. His father discovered that he seemed to be omnipresent while shepherding. He also caused clouds to rain with his spiritual powers. He used to mesmerize villagers and shepherds by distributing milk among them from a single bucket without even emptying it once. He was often sighted to be in company of many sages in his courtyard. But when people used to enquire about all this the child Masta always pretended to be ignorant. All these led his father Sabala to conclude that his son was not an ordinary person. He discussed all these incidents with the villagers and decided to hand over him to some saint. But they were unable to find out any such saint. Some time elapsed and Shri Narmienath ji, the follower of “Aai sect” visited the village. He was not an ordinary saint. Child Masta requested him to take him as his disciple. After initial refusal, he gave in to his request and named him “Mastnath.” He did many miracles in company of ‘Darshani yogis.’ These yogis tried to convince other yogis from all of their 12 sects that they should worship Mastnath ji, but failed to do so. Then Baba Mastnath ji demonstrated his spiritual powers by summoning hurricanes followed by excessive heat by stopping flow of air. On witnessing these “Rechak and Kumbhak miracles” yogis from all the 12 sects were speechless and accepted him as worship-able and was thereafter addressed as ‘Sidh Baba Mastnath ji.’ In this manner Aai sect was now known as Nath sect. After being worshiped and honored in Pehwa, Baba Mastnath ji moved to Math Asthal Bohar that was established by Chauranginath ji in 8th century and later on destroyed by him only. He rejuvenated it, mediated there and resurrected the glory of the Math.
