A Monk’s Silent Devotion
Known as Dinesh Swaroop Brahmachari, “Chai Wale Baba” has taken a vow of silence and follows an austere lifestyle, abstaining from solid food and sustaining himself on ten cups of tea daily. Despite his silence, he actively mentors students, offering guidance through gestures and WhatsApp messages.
Students Share Their Experiences
One civil service aspirant shared with ANI, “I have been associated with Maharaj Ji for four to five years. He guides us whenever we need assistance. Despite his silence, we understand him through gestures and written messages.”
He elaborated, “Language can be oral or written. Guruji communicates silently, but his written responses are clear and helpful. While the written medium isn’t perfect, it fulfills its purpose.”
A Legacy of Impact
“Chai Wale Baba’s” unique teaching method exemplifies dedication and innovation. His story resonates deeply amid the spiritual fervor of Maha Kumbh, inspiring countless others to pursue their goals with determination and resilience.
