Bhima Bhoi - Famous blind poet in Odisha

Mahima Gosain offers Eyes to blind Bhima Bhoi

There is a small mysterious talk about Saint Bhima Bhoi. He was born as a blind child and when he was 7 yrs old, one night Mahima Gosain visited his place with Bhakta Sadanand. In midnight they travelled through air and they called Bhima Bhoi and told him to write poems and books regarding Mahima Dharma. That time the little boy replied "I am blind, how can I read and write books"? That night, Mahima Gosain gave him eyes so that he can see the words to read and write books. He is well known as a famous poet and very loyal bhakt of Mahima Gosain.
