Description

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 28/03/2016

Internet websites provide a photograph (note 1) showing the walled-off and seriously iron-grilled cave entrance to what is called a »cave« and seems to represent a modified natural temple cave or inhabitable rock shelter associated with a religious worker titled Mahavatar Babaji (note 2). SITUATION: Apparently somewhere in Almora district and in the vicinity of a place called »Pandhukholi« which some Internet websites care to corrupt into »Pndakholi« (sic!). To get there, requires being carried or even to walk on foot.
