Baba Maneknath was 15th century legendary Hindu saint who lived on the banks of Sabarmati river near present city of Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India. LegendIt was named after Saint Maneknath [MANE EK NATH] who interrupted and helped Ahmed Shah I built Bhadra Fort in 1411. He wove a mat during day while the fort walls were constructed, he then unweaved the mat at night, magically crumbling down the walls. When this was discovered, he was invited to prove his powers to Ahmed Shah, by putting himself into a kettle. When he did, Ahmed Shah sealed the openings of the kettle. On the other account he helped the king to locate the site from where the construction of fort started. Under his advise the architect of city walls Ahmed Khattu changed the layout of city. He was buried alive or took samadhi on the river island when Sabarmati river was passing through the city under Fernandez Bridge. The first quarter of the city, Manek Chowk, named after him and the memorial temple is situated there. The first bastion of the fort named after him, called Manek Burj, situated at the east end of Ellis Bridge.[1][2][3][4][5][6] The saint is revered in north and central Gujarat. Bharathari near Thasra in Kheda district also has his memorial where he is shown seated on his horse and is considered the patron saint of the village. There is a temple at Latol near Danta in Banaskantha district is located near the cave in the foothill where the saint is believed to have meditated.[7] DescendantsMahant Ghanshyamnath, the 12th generation descendant of the saint, performs puja and hoists the flag on Manek Burj on the foundation day of the city and Vijayadashami every year.[3][4][6] References1. ^{{cite book|title=Gazetteer of the Bombay Presidency: Ahmedabad|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=EL4IAAAAQAAJ&pg=PA276|year=1879|publisher=Government Central Press|page=276}} 2. ^{{cite book | title=India Guide Gujarat | publisher=India Guide Publications | year=2007 | pages=93–94 | isbn=9780978951702 | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=gZRLGZNZEoEC&pg=PA93&dq=manek+chowk+ahmedabad&hl=en&sa=X&ei=7bX1UOO4NcLmrAeAhoCwDA&ved=0CDYQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=manek%20chowk%20ahmedabad&f=false | editor=Desai, Anjali H.}} 3. ^1 {{cite news | url=http://www.indianexpress.com/news/baba-maneknath-s-kin-keep-alive-600yr-old-tradition/698967 | title=Baba Maneknath’s kin keep alive 600-yr old tradition | work=The Indian Express | date=18 October 2010 | accessdate=21 February 2013 | author=More, Anuj}} 4. ^1 {{cite news | url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2011-10-07/ahmedabad/30257006_1_flag-foundation-stone-puja | title=Flags changed at city's foundation by Manek Nath baba's descendants | work=The Times of India | date=7 October 2011 | agency=TNN | accessdate=21 February 2013}} 5. ^{{cite news | url=http://www.ahmedabadmirror.com/index.aspx?Page=article§name=News%20-%20A%201000%20Salutes§id=68&contentid=2010022620100226182744376d3de031 | title=Multi-layered expansion | work=Ahmedabad Mirror | date=26 February 2010 | agency=AM | accessdate=21 February 2013 | author=Ruturaj Jadav and Mehul Jani}} 6. ^1 {{cite news | title=Descendants to pay homage to Manek Baba today | newspaper=The Times of India | date=26 February 2011| url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/ahmedabad/Descendants-to-pay-homage-to-Manek-Baba-today/articleshow/7578458.cms | accessdate=29 May 2018 }} 7. ^{{cite news | title=Ahmedabad says abracadabra | website=Times of India Publications | date=27 February 2011 | first=Parth|last=Shastri|url=http://lite.epaper.timesofindia.com/mobile.aspx?article=yes&pageid=2&edlabel=TOIA&mydateHid=27-02-2011&pubname=&edname=&articleid=Ar00202&format=&publabel=TOI | accessdate=7 January 2015}} 6 : Indian folklore|Legendary people|Medieval Hindu religious leaders|Scholars from Ahmedabad|Hindu folk deities|15th-century Indian scholars |
