Bamakhyapa ( BAMAKHEPA ) worshipped Mother in the form of Tara and became a famous Tantric saint practicing sadhana at the Trapith cremation ground. Bamakhyapa was born in 1837 near Kali devotee Bamakhyapa
Tarapith in the village of Alta. His father died when Bamakhyapa was very young and therefore his mother and widowed elder sister were the first ones to give him spiritual instructions. They told the boy ancient Hindu stories from the Ramayana and Mahabharata, and it was due to their efforts that Bamakhyapa developed a spiritual sentiment early in life.
He enjoyed singing devotional songs in which he became rather good at, to the delight of his mother and elder sister. Bamakhyapa proved inept to perform any kind of work, all he wanted to do was worship Mother Tara. Whenever he saw a red hibiscus flower, he thought of Ma Tara and then all of a sudden lost his consciousness. He had heard about Kailaspati Baba, the well-known Tantric who was believed to be a realized soul. Bamakhyapa went straight to his cottage and recognizing Bamakhyapa’s potential for spiritual realization, the Baba accepted him as his disciple. Bamakhyapa began to practice serious Tantric sadhana under the guidance of Kailaspati Baba.
Bamakhyapa was in the habit of moving around completely naked. One day someone asked him, “Why are you naked?” Bamakhyapa replied, “My Father (Shiva) is naked; my Mother (Tara) is also naked. So, I am practicing that. Moreover, I don’t live in society. I live in the cremation ground with my Mother. So I have no shame or fear!”
Soon Bamakhyapa became famous for his yogic powers and even people from far away came to see him. Some sought nothing but his blessings while others asked to be healed or helped in distress. Bamakhyapa healed many sick people with his psychic powers.
Bamakhyapa was not learned but the Mother revealed everything to him, as he used to say. The saint of Tarapith through his holy presence sanctified the place and the people who came in contact with him. He entered mahasamadhi (final liberation) in 1911.
