Sri Baba Nagnath Yogeshwar is the leading Aghori Sadu ascetic in Varanasi, the Aghori sect

being synonymous with the remains of the dead. Suitably his temple or Ashram was located
at one of the most famous site associated with death in India, the Burning Ghat
(Dashashwamedh Ghat). He had not bent his arms in 17 years and he is alleged not to have
eaten any food in the last 7 years, existing solely on water. This ascetic devotion has
deformed his body with his shoulders and elbows being locked in place and holding his arms
at 45 degree angles from his body.

2. I have one Mahishasuramardini Stotram by Lord Anjaneya (in Tamil)


consisting of 18-shlokas each stanza starting "amba prasIda ...".
This was apparently created by Lord Anjaneya when Lord Rama and
Lakshmana were imprisoned by Ravana and his son Indrajit.
What is the source of this stuti - is it part of Adhyatma Ramayana?
