AMRITSAR, INDIA, September 16, 2004: Baba Mohan Das is rolling all the way to Pakistan, nearly 1,000 km from his hometown of Ratlam in Madhya Pradesh. The Baba is carrying the message of peace to the neighboring country. Once in Lahore, he plans to meet Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf to congratulate him for the ongoing peace process. “I am doing this rolling pilgrimage for world peace, end of terrorism and friendly relations between India and Pakistan. I started it from Hanuman Temple in Madhya Pradesh from January 20 onwards. I paid a visit to the Golden Temple. Now I want to continue my visit to Lahore in Pakistan,” he told reporters after visiting the Golden Temple. He is popularly known as Ludkan Baba because of his unique style of rolling. So far, the Baba has traversed 2,500 kms without injury. Be it the monsoon rains or the desert heat, through blisters and ecstasy, amid adoring crowds and speeding traffic, the Baba rolls on and on. During the rolls, the Baba does not eat and only takes sips of water or smokes an occasional cigarette. Earlier, the Baba rolled for 3,000 km to the Vaishno Devi shrine and got his name registered in the Guinness Book of World Records.
