Detail InformationEdit

Hazrat Baba Tajjuddin Dargah (January 21, 1861 – August 17, 1925) was an Sufi master considered by his followers to be a sadguru or qutub. He lived in Nagpur. Tajuddin was orphaned at a young age and was raised by his maternal grandmother and uncle Abdul Rahman. He attended a Madrasah in Kamptee, near Nagpur, where he met Hazrat Abdulla Shah who initiated him into the spiritual path. Shah gave him a dry fruit to eat, saying, “Eat less, sleep less, and speak less. Read Qur’an.” With this contact Tajuddin Baba is said to have lost his material consciousness and began to experience a sense of oneness or “Adwaita.” Later, he was committed to a insane asylum in Nagpur by the British. In the hospital he became widely regarded as a sage and word spread outside of the hospital walls. Eventually people began to come to the hospital for Tajuddin’s darshan. Maharaja Raghuji Bhosale took the Baba out of asylum to his own palace. The Maharaja put his palatial building, viz, Lal Kothi, at Sakarddara completely at the disposal of the saint. He was honored by both Muslims and Hindus.
