Bhumman Shah (14 April 1687 – 1762, also spelt as Bhuman Shah, born Bhumia Hassa) was an Udasi saint.[1][2][3]
Baba Bhuman Shah Udasin, a seventeenth-century baba, was well-known for offering langar and was visited, it would seem characteristically, by people who variously followed Hindu, Muslim, or Sikh ritual practices but were collectively drawn by his power (Ballard 1996). The Sadhanakendra Ashram website describes such people as being "of different faiths," although this modern formulation imposes boundaries which would probably not have been recognised in Baba Bhuman Shah Udasin's time (Oberoi 1994).
