In the southern fringes of Kolkata ( at Baruipur in South 24 Parganas ,to be precise), this temple called Shibani Pith draws hundreds of men and women from distant places ,who throng to this holy place resplendent with all-permeating serenity. They come here seeking blessings of Maa Shibani and Her enigmatic devotee Kinkar Kalikananda Maharaj ( popularly known as Na Da or Thakurmashai). A life of unflinching Sadhana marks this revered yogi whose spartan life style and tireless discipline in serving his beloved Shibani Maa , puts him in the league of all time great yogis . Those who have benefited from his blessings vouch for his divine awareness though he himself attributes the so-called "miracles" to be the handiwork of his beloved mother- Maa Shibani .
Pratima is strikingly life-like and the glow on Maharaj's countenance is hard to miss.
