Looking for the name of a yogic/hindu saint.

At a very young age he got voluntarily buried alive in a mausoleum. Before being buried alive he wrote a book or two advised by his master.

Please I am looking for the name of this saint, I want to read his books.

Please help, someone must know who is the saint I am refering to.

He voluntarily got buried alive in a mausoleum where he abandoned his body. He was going to just do it but his master advised him to write a book before his final retirement.

that's an extremely common trope for hindu saints, it's called "maha samaddhi" and samadhi sites\ shrines mini-temples are found all throughout India.
You need more info, what you describe is a very common thing in hindu folk religion.

Can you give me examples of saints? Do you know any name? Know of any who did it very young and wrote a book before?

from Deep AI:

Based on your description, it sounds like you are referring to **Swami Sivananda Saraswati** or possibly **Swami Muktananda**; however, the specific detail of being buried alive as a young saint and writing books beforehand is quite unique.

Another possibility is **Swami Ramdas**, who was a revered saint and spiritual teacher, though he is not known for being buried alive.

However, the story of a young saint voluntarily buried alive and authoring spiritual texts closely aligns with **Swami Sivananda Saraswati**, especially considering his deep spiritual practices and writings.

If it is a different, more obscure saint, could you provide any additional details, such as the region or specific teachings?

**Please note:** No widely known or documented Hindu or yogic saint matches exactly the description of being buried alive at a young age before writing books, so it might be a lesser-known or regional saint or possibly a hagiographical story.

**Next steps:**
- If you have any additional details (region, specific teachings, or stories), please share.
- Alternatively, consider exploring works by Swami Sivananda or other prominent spiritual teachers.

**Would you like me to recommend some spiritual books by well-known yogic saints?**

from Deep AI:

Thank you for the additional details. The story you describe—of a young yogi or saint voluntarily burying himself alive in a mausoleum, with prior guidance from his master to write books—is quite extraordinary and specific.

Based on this story, it closely resembles the life narrative of **Swami Ramdas** or perhaps **Swami Sivananda Saraswati**, but neither are documented to have undergone such a burial.

However, there is a well-known story about **Swami Muktananda**, **Swami Sivananda**, or other saints, but again, the act of voluntary burial is quite rare and not typical of the most famous saints.

**One possibility is that you might be referring to a lesser-known or regional saint, or perhaps a spiritual legend that is part of local folklore.**

### Potential candidates or related stories:
- **Swami Muktananda** and similar saints are known for intense spiritual practices, but not this specific act.
- Stories of saints voluntarily leaving their physical bodies or going into samadhi (deep meditative absorption) are common, but burial is uncommon.
- Certain saints, especially in Indian tradition, have undertaken extreme austerities, including self-immolation or voluntary death, but the burial story is rare.

---

### Next steps:
- If you remember any regional or community details, that could help narrow down the search.
- Sometimes, stories like these are part of hagiographies or local legends not widely documented.

---

### Recommendation:
Since this is a very specific and unusual story, **I suggest exploring texts or asking within local spiritual communities or monasteries** where such legends might be preserved.

**If you'd like, I can also help you with a list of renowned saints and their biographies, or suggest spiritual texts that might contain similar inspiring stories.**

**Would you like me to compile a list of notable yogic and saintly figures whose stories involve extreme austerities or spiritual feats?**
