Salutations to thee Oh wise one
Thou are the Knower of Om
Beyond the body – Dehatitaya
Nirupamaya – thou are incomparable
Bringing Hinduism to Hindus and All
You uplifted many from consciousness fall
Your spiritual encounters created wise men
Through those men the world shall gain
Uncanny, witty your methods of speech
Unique are the methods by which you preach
I wonder like you anyone else can teach
For out of this world is your outreach
Your BMI chart simply so expressible
Your source of inspiration inexhaustible
The Geeta Gnana brought forth by you
Nurtures lifestyles spiritually adjustable
You conquered the senses and imparted sense
Your taint-less magnanimity with prudence
Salutations to you –the best among men at glance
The Great sage, teacher of Mahavakyas enhance
You lived life incomparable from the rest
Within storms you remained undisturbed best
Dhairyapradaya – Instiller of courage immense
Beyond dualities you lived with pertinence
Beautiful! Was blessed enough to meet him few times both in India and Indonesia 🕉🙏🏼🔱

You are fortunate Guruji for having met him in person. I have met him only through his video clips and Geeta explanations and cannot stop admiring the vast ocean of knowledge in Him.

He is a flame of fire of wisdom within. His oratory skills are unparalleled. Humour at its peaks and the wisdom is given in simple terms. My grandmother is an initiate from his dear disciple Sarada Priyananda. I used to have high affinity towards his teachings when I was in undergrad. Ofcourse now too I revere, but my search and path took me elsewhere.
There is a very interesting book titled Wandering in the Himalayas. It’s a one of its kind books depicting us the Himalayan explorations of Swamiji’s guru Tapovan Maharaj.

I like the way you address him to be present even now. My daughter too says that He is always with her, taking care of her and guiding her.

Wow. Your daughter is lucky to have him as a guru. If you have read Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahamsa Yogananda, you would see how he was guided by his guru even after his guru left physical body and how he was guiding his disciples who are distant, not knowing himself!! There is always an exaggeration and grain of truth in these. Out of experience we choose what suits us!!

Very true. One has to decide what is suitable for one’s growth and development and choose some facts and discard the rest to let the mind be free of clutter.
