While the film 'Hanuman Ansh,' dedicated to Nim Karoli Baba, is actively being discussed and setting box office records, the Nim Karoli Baba temple in Kainchi Dham, located in Nainital, also attracts attention. However, few people know about the existence of the Nim Karoli Baba temple in America, situated thousands of kilometers from the state of Uttarakhand.
A video recording of this American temple has gone viral on social media. According to this video, there is a very majestic Nim Karoli Baba ashram in Taos, New Mexico, in America, where people constantly flock to visit the shrine. People hold great faith in this temple. It is said that this Nim Karoli Baba temple dates back to the 70s, and the statue of Hanuman was first installed here in 1979.
The temple and ashram house numerous magnificent images of Baba. A statue of Hanuman in a blessing posture is installed at the place of worship. Directly below it are photographs of Nim Karoli Baba. After this, pilgrims come here to worship and pray. Prasad is distributed in the temple day and night. A special area with a large photograph of Baba is also designated next to the place of worship. According to the viral video, an old Baba ashram exists near this temple. Photography or filming in the temple is permitted.
According to sources, in the 70s, when Nim Karoli Baba's chief disciple, Ram Das, arrived here with his companions to visit Baba, he was deeply impressed by Baba's knowledge and miracles. After returning to America, he founded the ashram here to convey Baba's teachings and knowledge to people. It is recounted that in 1979, a beautiful marble statue of Hanuman was brought here from Jaipur, Rajasthan. From the day of consecration until today, devotees come here daily to light a candle of faith.
