Raghupati Yogi🔗

a friend and teacher
Paramahamsa's parents gracefully
watched, as mere guardians, the
spiritual growth in their child.

When Paramahamsa was about 3, he
met Yogiraj Raghupati Maharaj.
Raghupati Yogi was a Yogi of great skill
and powers. With a body as taut as a
bowstring, disciplined by years of
rigorous penance in India, Tibet and
Burma, Raghupati Yogi became a
friend and Guru to young
Paramahamsa. With apparent
foresight into the future, he prepared
Paramahamsa's body through rigorous
yogic training to hold the
energy of enlightenment.

Seen here, is Parashakti
(female personification of
the Existential energy),
which appeared as a vision to
Paramahamsa, which he immediately
carved out of soapstone.

Raghupati Yogi demonstrated
teleportation to young
Paramahamsa. He showed him
levitation, and other similar feats
and made him understand that
these were not any scale to measure
spiritual growth and that the
understanding of the Supreme
Truth lay beyond all this.

It was Raghupati Yogi who
arranged for Paramahamsa to
deliver his first public lecture on the
Patanjali Yoga Sutras at the age of
10 in Tiruvannamalai.
Distributing flyers for the occasion,
he gathered over 1000 people for this
unique event.
