Sukh Deva-ji

Sukh Deva was a well known Shaiva sadhu (devotee of Lord Shiva) in Varanasi (Benares). When not sitting on the ghats by the Ganges, surrounded by his disciples, it's in the North Eastern State of Assam that he was most likely to be found. Every summer, he would go to Guwahati on a pilgrimage to one of the most important Shakti centres (female spiritual energy) in India, the Kamakhya Temple.

When i returned to Varanasi in 2015, i was told that Sukh Deva-ji had left his body, as passing away is commonly refered to among sadhus.
