Bamakhyapa (Bengali: বামাখ্যাপা, romanized: Bamakhæpa, lit. 'mad Bama'; 1837–1911), born Bamacharan Chattopadhyay, was an Indian Hindu saint who resided in Tarapith and whose shrine is also located in the vicinity of the Tarapith Temple in Birbhum. He was born at Atla village in the Rampurhat subdivision of the Birbhum district. He was an ardent devotee of Goddess Tara and lived near the temple and meditated in the cremation grounds. He stayed in Mouliksha temple for continuing the worship of Holy Mother. Bamakhyapa was fed first in the temple before the deity and nobody obstructed him. It is believed that Goddess Tara gave a vision to Bamakhaypa in the cremation grounds in her ferocious form.
