Mohan Das, better known today as Lotan Baba (the ‘rolling saint’), is an Indian holy man who has a unique way of promoting peace. He travels by rolling his body along the ground at a speed of about 8 miles per day, and claims to have covered nearly 20,000 miles in total, rolling through the cities of India and beyond — including London.
Leaving home at 12 years old to become a mystic holy man, Mohan Das later gained fame by choosing to do penance by standing perfectly still on the same spot under a banyan tree for 7 years and eating only grass. He says his mission is to promote ‘world peace and eternal salvation’.
