Maharaj

One day when Hanumanghar was under construction, Maharaj was sitting at the puja (place of worship) in Shivdutt Joshi's house at Kishanpur, Nainital. An earthen lamp was burning near Baba and a small bowl containing water and a spoon was before him. Many devotees were sitting by him talking about havan (a ritual during which offerings are thrown into fire). One devotee was describing how Adi Heriakhan Baba performed havan with water. Shivdutt's daughter Munni Devi said that while everybody was listening with rapt attention, Baba was using the small spoon to pour water onto the flame of the wick in the earthenware lamp. Whenever he poured on the water, the flame rose higher.
