Fakirs walk on fire
The tradition of Siddhas is ancient and continues through blessings. This Agni Nartya, the fire dance, is part of that Siddha tradition, established here by great spiritual authority. The lineage includes revered figures like Kapila Muni, with accounts found in scripture. The Namokāra Mantra honors all Siddhas. Historical accounts tell of a Mughal emperor being shown the spiritual power of this fire dance, leading him to grant a copper plate decree. This decree authorized the rituals and offered protection. The singing for this ceremony is in the Aumkāra Rāga, passed down by Siddha forefathers for spiritual awakening. The effect of this song enables the Siddha to dance within the fire with joy and perform ritual offerings.
"Rustamjī Mahārāj, in Delhi, introduced Aurangzeb, the Mughal Emperor, to the spiritual power of Agni Nartya through the medium of Agni Nartya."
"He gave the Pramāṇa Patra that as long as the Delhi Sultanate exists, no one will stop you."
