Welcome to the wild world of Abhay Singh, better known as IIT Baba! This former aerospace engineer has taken a detour from the predictable path of engineering to embrace a life of spirituality—and by spirituality, we mean a whole lot of chillum and social media fame. As taxpayers, we might be wondering if our hard-earned money is funding a spiritual journey or just another viral sensation.
The Taxpayer-Funded Comedy Show
Let’s break it down: we’ve all invested in institutions like IIT Bombay, where Singh honed his engineering skills. And what do we get in return? A graduate who traded in his promising career for a life of self-proclaimed enlightenment that looks suspiciously like an extended vacation—complete with Instagram selfies and questionable life choices. It’s like paying for a gourmet meal only to find out they’re serving instant noodles!
Singh’s recent expulsion from the Juna Akhara for allegedly disrespecting his guru is the cherry on top of this taxpayer-funded cake. Instead of reflecting on the gravity of his actions, he casually claims it’s all a conspiracy by jealous seers who can’t handle his “enlightenment.” If that’s not comedy gold, I don’t know what is!
High Hopes and Higher Vibes
Now, let’s talk about his “secret meditation” claims. Seriously? Secret meditation sounds more like a teenager trying to sneak out of the house than a serious spiritual practice. Instead of embracing the values of respect and discipline, Singh seems to think he can just wing it while high on life (and possibly other substances). It’s like watching someone try to cook a gourmet meal while using only microwave popcorn!And his viral responses? Pure entertainment! When asked about his sudden disappearance from the Maha Kumbh, he quipped, “Those people are talking nonsense.” Well, Abhay, if you keep this up, you might just become the next big thing on Instagram! Watching your antics is certainly more entertaining than most reality TV shows—and at least we’re not paying for cable.
A Comedy of Errors Funded by Us
As taxpayers, we might feel a mix of pride and embarrassment watching this unfold. On one hand, we helped fund his education; on the other hand, we’re left wondering if our money is going toward enlightenment or just another excuse for someone to act like a fool in public. It’s like funding an art project only to find out it’s just a giant pile of garbage—literally and figuratively!

Is this true Bhakti ?
This is not Bhakti; it’s Delusion.

In conclusion, while Abhay Singh may see himself as an enlightened being on a spiritual quest, many of us are left scratching our heads and chuckling at the absurdity of it all. As we watch this taxpayer-funded comedy show unfold at the Maha Kumbh Mela, let’s hope that future generations remember that true enlightenment doesn’t come from chillums or viral fame—it comes from hard work and respect for tradition. Otherwise, we might just end up funding another season of “IIT Baba: The Comedy Special.”
