Vat Vriksh Tapsya Sathali of Baba Balak Nath Ji at Shah Talai :


Vat Vriksh Tapsya Sathali of Baba Balak Nath Ji at Shah Talai :
There was a Banyan Tree, below which Baba Ji made his shelter and told Ratno Mai that He would meditate below Banyan Tree and graze the cows side by side. He asked her to leave the Roti and Lassi there for taking by Him after meditation. Baba Ji committed with Ratno Mai to work for her so long she would remain satisfied. Everything remained smooth till twelve years. People started complaining the damage to crop field by the cows by the end of 12th year. 
 
 
Ratno Mai used to ignore such complaints; but the complaint of village Pardhan broke the patience of Ratno Mai and she started rebuking Baba Ji. At this, Baba Ji took Ratno Mai and village Pardhan alongwith other people to the field and saw the said spot where there was no damage at all. Everybody was taken aback by this miracle. Baba Ji came back to His place of worship and asked Ratno Mai to take back her cows and let Him go His way. Ratno Mai out of motherly affection/attachment tried to persuade Baba Ji and reminded Him about her providing Roti and Lassi for 12 years.  
Baba Balak Nath Ji said that this had been coincidental and further affirmed that coincidence would always be predestined. Baba Ji further told that He has kept all the Roties and Lassi safely as He never used them. By saying that Baba Ji threw away His ‘Chimata’ on the stem of Banyan Tree and the Roties supplied for 12 years came out. Similarly, Baba Balak Nath Ji further threw the same ‘Chimata’ forcibly on the earth and spring of Lassi started coming out taking the shape of a pond and today that place is known as ‘Shah Talai’

After this episode, Baba Ji’s stressed for going away from Shah Talai, Ratno Mai repented for her ignorance and got moved. On seeing all this Baba Ji kindfully told Ratno Mai that He would worship in forest land and she could see Him there.
 
BABAJI's TEMPLE AT SHAH TALAI:
A half hollow structure has been prepared to symbolize the ‘Hollow of Banyan Tree’. Nearby is a temple having the images of Baba Balak Nath, Guga Chauhan and Nahar Singh Ji. The soil of this place is used as anti-worm for cattle-foot diseases
