A mysterious silhouette believed to be a representation of Mahadev has appeared on a wall in Cassis, Mauritius. Krishna Lobin, a resident of Cassis, discovered the image after cutting down a tree that had grown in front of his home. According to Lobin, his wife Anju noticed the image two days later, and they have since set up a small place of worship in their residence.

The tree, known as a "pie kas," was planted by Lobin several years ago and had grown significantly, obstructing access to the door. Lobin decided to cut it down, and the subsequent discovery of the Mahadev silhouette has been a source of wonder and spiritual significance for the family. Devotees and curious visitors have been flocking to the site to catch a glimpse of the image.

Lobin, a devotee of Mahadev, is overjoyed by the discovery and feels a deep connection to his faith. He has been performing daily rituals, lighting a lamp in front of the image, and sharing the experience with others. The family's spiritual practice has become an integral part of their daily routine, with Anju expressing her happiness in being able to perform these rituals.

The news of the Mahadev silhouette has spread beyond the family, attracting visitors from the community. Some have come out of curiosity, while others have come to pray and seek blessings. Lobin is delighted to share this experience with others and feels grateful to be able to connect with his faith on a deeper level.

On October 25, Junior Minister Fabrice David, who represents the constituency of Grand-Rivière-Nord-Ouest and Port-Louis-Ouest, visited the site and was deeply moved by the experience. He was invited by Lobin to view the image and was struck by its distinct shape and significance. David described the moment as "particularly strong and emotional."

Krishna Lobin has lived in Cassis his entire life and has built a life with his wife Anju, whom he married on May 24, 1992. The couple has two sons, Kushal and Nilesh, who are now grown with families of their own. Lobin's family is preparing to celebrate the first birthday of their grandson, Yuvashsingh, on November 10.

The appearance of the Mahadev silhouette has brought the community together, with many people visiting the site to experience the spiritual energy. As a place of worship, the site has become a hub for devotees and those seeking blessings. The experience has also strengthened Lobin's connection to his faith and his community.
