They left behind barriers of caste and religion and brought bottles, bags or buckets of alcohol to offer at the shrine of a Muslim holy man, Baba Rode Shah, known for performing miracles. Residue of the thousands of of gallons of alcoholic offerings is distributed among the followers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasanudas Posted July 10, 2001 Report Share Posted July 10, 2001 Yes this is one way for them to forget not just their barriers but everything else too. No telling what sort of miracles you would see after all that residue. I'm sure their are many wittnesses of this mystics miracles maybe he could apply for sainthood.
