Through the power of Yoga, ancient Rishis (sages) have performed unbelievable miracles in search of mukti (ultimate truth or salvation). The 20th century witnessed an earth-shattering spectacle when two great young Yogis - Bhagwan Balayogi (Sri Pedda Balayogi) and Balayogi the Junior (Sri Chinna Balayogi) shunned food and water and sat on Yoga Tapasya (mediation) for decades. Bhagwan Balayogi was born on 23.10.1930 in a village called Mummidivaram (Andhra Pradesh, India). The world stood aghast and surrendered in devotion when He embarked upon a path of Yoga Tapasya on 22.06.1946 at a tender age of fifteen and continued until His Mahanirvana (Great End) on 19.07.1985 for a whole 39 years without food, water or movement. In the footprints of his Master, his brother Balayogi the Younger too started Tapasya when he was mere eight years old on 16.02.1950 and continued Tapas for 42 years. Both the great Balayogis have done this greatest miracle in the full public view of millions of devotees giving public darshan every year on the day after Maha Shivarathri festival ER -
