Russian 'Muscular Baba'

The Maha Kumbh Mela is ongoing in Prayagraj, located in the state of Uttar Pradesh. Devotees from all parts of India, from east to west and north to south, are coming to this holy event to wash away their sins. It is the largest spiritual gathering in the world. Devotees are coming not only from India but also from all over the world to take a dip in the holy river at Sangam.

According to reports, approximately 400 million devotees will visit the Maha Kumbh Mela from all over India and the world. This holy event takes place every 12 years. According to Hindu scriptures, this event occurs every 12 years because of the planet Jupiter. Before the world understood science, Hindu scriptures stated that the planet Jupiter orbits the sun in 12 years. That’s why Hindus started taking holy dips in Sangam every 12 years, leading to the event being called the Maha Kumbh Mela.

During the Maha Kumbh Mela, many saints and devotees have gone viral on social media due to their unique presence. For instance, Abhey Singh, known as IITian Baba, went viral because he studied at IIT Bombay before becoming a saint. Similarly, recently a saint has gone viral due to his 7-foot height and unique physical appearance. This saint, known as ‘Muscular Baba,’ gained attention during the Maha Kumbh Mela. His appearance becomes the discussion topic between devotees and others on social media. Some claiming ‘Muscular Baba’ he is good Saint and the society needed this type of saint. But some claiming ‘Muscular Baba’ is a incarnation of God.

Viral 7-Foot ‘Muscular Baba’

In the holy events of Maha Kumbh Mela, a saint went viral due to his unique physical appearance and He got viral as a ‘Muscular Baba.’ But his Original name is Atma Prem Giri Maharaj.

Atma Prem Giri Maharaj, also known as ‘Muscular Baba,’ has drawn the attention of devotees during the Kumbh Mela due to his 7-foot height and unique physique. Due to his distinctive appearance, devotees from all over India are comparing him to Lord Parshuram, the warrior incarnation of Lord Vishnu. People believe that he is a modern incarnation of Lord Parshuram.

Dressed in simple saffron-colored clothing, with a big jhola by his side and a rudraksha mala around his neck and hands, Atma Prem Giri Maharaj visits the religious gathering. His natural appearance leads people to compare him to an incarnation of God.

Atma Prem Giri Maharaj, born in Russia, embraced Hinduism 30 years ago. Before converting to Hinduism, Muscular Baba was a school teacher, but he later chose to become a Hindu saint.
