Who is Baba Balia?

Known as Srimad Baba Balia Paramahansa Deb, he is a realized soul and a living embodiment of Sanatan Dharma. A spiritual guide, reformer, environmentalist, orator, and educationist, his teachings transcend religion, caste, and language, promoting unity, compassion, and righteous living.
A Saint Who Embraces the World

Unlike reclusive ascetics, Baba Balia engages with the world. He champions a life of karma (selfless service), devotion, and respect. Through the Ananta Balia Trust, he mobilizes youth for environmental efforts and cultural revival, fostering harmony and responsibility.
His Message: Purposeful Living with Integrity

Baba Balia seeks not blind followers but true seekers ready to transform through discipline and service. To him, moksha (liberation) is the natural result of right thought and action. His famous words-"Chasakara Dhana Kata, Chala Bhai Bhalabata"-urge diligence, acceptance, and peaceful coexistence.
A Voice for Change

He envisions a society free from casteism, corruption, and spiritual hypocrisy. A follower of Ahimsa (non-violence), he promotes ethical earning, family values, and spiritual evolution. Though he possesses siddhis, his focus remains on transforming lives through wisdom and love.
