Aindra das

H.G. Aindra Prabhu received harinama-diksa on Nityananda Trayodasi in 1974 from A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada in Washington D.C. For many years, he was serving as a pujari at the temple and was regularly going out on harinama-sankirtana and book distribution in that area. After several visits to Shri Vrindavan-dhama, he then got the inspiration within his heart to re-inaugurate the 24hour-kirtana which had originally been established by Shrila Prabhupada in 1975 at the Krishna-Balarama Mandir. In 1986, Aindra Prabhu decided to settle down in Vrindavan-dhama and was coordinating and guiding the 24hour-kirtana for 24 entire years! Not only did he inspire the local devotees and numerous visitors with his daily kirtanas, but his wonderful recordings and his most pure katha will eternally spread the mellows of Shri Vrindavan-dhama all over the universe. He left his body in the holy land of Vrindavan at the lotus feet of his Deities in his room beside Krishna-Balarama Mandir on evening 16th July, 2010.

Shrila Bhakti Vedanta Shridhar Swami

Shrila Bhakti Vedanta Shridhar Swami was born on 10th August, 1965. He was a devotee from his childhood. The village he was born in (not far from Jagannatha Puri, Orissa) is very close to the birthplace of Shri Raya Ramananda. Shripad Bhaktivedanta Shridhara Maharaja came to the shelter of his Gurudeva, Nitya-lila pravishta Om Vishnupada Paramahamsa Astottara-shata Shri Shrimad Bhakti Shri-Rupa Siddhanti Goswami Maharaj, at a very young age of 14in Jagannatha Puri Dhama and then joined his Math in Satasana Road called Shri Saraswata Gaudiya Ashram. When Shripad Bhaktivedanta Shridhara Maharaja (then a boy of 14)came to his future diksa-guru's temple for the very first time, he brought a big jackfruit as a donation. When Shrila BS Siddhanti Maharaja returned from a preaching tour, he at once noticed a big jackfruit in the temple. He was surprised and inquired, 'Who brought this?' Later one day when Shridhara Maharaja finally joined the temple, the devotees introduced him to his future Guru as 'the boy who brought the jackfruit'. Shripad Shridhara Maharaja joined the temple full time even against the wishes of his protesting parents and elder brother, and remained in his Gurudev's seva till his very last day. Shrila BS Siddhanti Maharaja gave him harinama and diksa initiation and the name Shripad Rasananda dasa Brahmacari. When Shrila Siddhanti Maharaja left the planet, Rasananda Prabhu began to inquire about the whereabouts of Shrila Bhaktivedanta Narayana Goswami Maharaja, as he was eager for listening to his Hari-katha. Soon after he reached Mathura and remained with our beloved Shrila Gurudeva for years in Mathura till he was handed over the responsibility of Shri Rupa-Sanatana Gaudiya Math in Vrindavan. While being in charge of Shrila Gurudeva's main temple in Vrindavan (and he is still performing that seva!) Rasananda Brahmacari Prabhu has trained literally hundreds devotees from both India and the West. His sweet name was always in full correspondence with his sweet nature and sweet Vraja harikatha and kirtan. In 2010 he took the sacred order of sannyasa from Shrila Gurudeva, his siksa guru, and now he is absorbed in preaching travelling all over the world.

Shrila Rajendra Das Swami

Madhya Pradesh – a state at the heart of India, wherein the proud village of "Acharra" or "Acharya gram" is situated in the Tikamgarh district of Bundelkhand region. For ages, Acharra has been home to acharyas & virtuous Vedic brahmins. In fact, the word acharra has colloquially evolved from the word "acharya" (a spiritual teacher, leader & mentor). Shri Maharaj Ji's ancestors belong to this same place.

The holy month of Bhaadrapad is purified by the appearance day of Shri Krishna. The fifth day of the waxing moon (Bhaadra Shukla panchami) of this month is also known as "Rishi Panchami". On this very day our beloved Shri Maharaj ji appeared in this world to gladden our hearts & bless our lives. Shri Maharaj Ji’s father Pt Shri Ramswaroop ji Pandey is a very virtuous, pious, erudite personality and a saintly devotee and used to do Sanskrit teaching & satsang discourses of Shri Ram – Krishna katha along with Shri Bhaktamal. Smt Brijlata devi is the mother of Shri Maharaj Ji. Shri Mahraj Ji's parents got Vaishnava initiation from the venerable Bhagavat of Shri Vrindavan, Anant Shri Vibhushit Shri Ganesh das ji "Bhaktamali" ji Maharaj. At the time of initiation Shri Mahraj Ji's mother was still pregnant with her second son. This very fortunate son is our dear, beloved master, friend, philosopher & guide – Anant Shri Vibhushit Shri Malook peethadhishwar Maharaj.

Param Sadgurudev Shri Bhaktmali ji had, in his childhood, escaped twice from his home for learning Sanskrit at Kashi, relinquishing the local school. Though he didn’t succeed in his initial endeavour, he managed to escape in his second attempt & walked all the way to Varanasi from his village, Kursi in the Naimish region (near Lucknow). Similarly, Shri Rajendra das ji adamantly relinquished his studies in his local school due to a specific incident and told his father "I shall not go for studies to that place again." This decision of his caused much worry in his family. But by the grace of Shri Hari, the arrival of Sadgurudev Shri Bhaktmali ji from Vrindavan ended the consternation. He quickly resolved it – "Let me to take him to Vrindavan for further study" said Maharaj. This ushering of the young Shri Rajendra das ji Maharaj for study to Vrindavan by a Ramanandi saint was the implicit mercy of Shri Ram-Krishna through Shri Sadgurudev.

Prior to leaving for Shri Vrindavan, during his stay in the village, Shri Maharaj ji was blessed with the purifying association of Pujyapad Shri Swami Sharananand ji Maharaj for nearly a year. Shri Swamiji was a disciple of Shankaracharya Jyotishpeethadhishwar Shri Bramhananda Saraswatiji Maharaj & junior God-brother to Shri Swami Karpatri ji Maharaj. Pujyapad Sharananand ji was firmly fixed in Sanyasa-dharma – completely detached from the attraction for money and women. He was venerated by all the saints of the age.

Sadgurudev Shri Bhakatmali ji Maharaj was in those days in Vrindavan, writing his great commentary on Shri Bhaktamal while living at Sudama kuti. There he initiated his newly surrendered disciple into the storied Vaishnava tradition, formally accepting him under his tutelage. He also initiated his formal Sanskrit-shastra eduction. The newly initiated disciple was now named Rajendra das. In time, Shri Bhaktamali ji Maharaj got him initiated into the renounced order at nearby Khak chowk from the great siddha saint – Yogiraj Shri Deva das ji Maharaj also known as "Shri Pahadi Baba".

The cultured Vaishnava student Shri Rajendradasji serially studied and obtained Masters degrees in Sanskrit Grammar, Vishishtadvait Vedant & Literature. On 8th January 2018, on Jagadguru Ramanandacharya Jayanti, Shri Tulasipithadhish Divyang University chancellor Pujyapad Jagadguru Shri Rambhadracharya ji Maharaj offered the honorary degree of D. Lit (Vidya vachaspati) to Shri Maharaj ji at the hands of Hon. President of India. All of this proved to be the visible fruit of Shri Maharaj ji's Guru nishtha (faith & service to Shri Guru).

Babaji is the true example of mercy that the Supreme Lord possesses and is sure to be present in the exalted devotees of Lord, like babaji is. If you want to see someone with extraordinary attraction, love, sweetness and yet, extraordinary humbleness, babaji is the true destination. Babaji is someone who will shower an ocean of mercy on you even if he don not know you. Just like Shrimati Radhika, he would not see whether you deserve it or not, he would anyhow love you unconditionally.

Born on the island of Mauritius in the family of followers of Hinduism in 1978, Paramahamsa Viswananda came to Europe at the age of 19. Paramahamsa Shri Swami Vishwananda is an enlightened spiritual Master and founder of Bhakti Marga, the path of devotion. He is a living example of the transformational power of divine love. Mahavatar Babaji is Paramahamsa Vishwananda’s Guru, the Paramguru (highest Guru) of the Atma Kriya lineage and the source of Atma Kriya Yoga. Mahavatar Babaji first appeared to Paramahamsa Vishwananda when he five years old, giving the young boy a glimpse of who he really was. Mahavatar Babaji is a great immortal yogi from the Himalayas who manifested himself 5,000 years ago. He always teaches one thing: if He has realised the Divine, so can we. Babaji’s nature is unparalleled. He is beyond time and space, constantly blessing humanity with waves of peace and love and assisting other Gurus in carrying out their work. Throughout the ages, Mahavatar Babaji has given many different Kriya Yoga techniques and teachings to the world, each in accordance to what the world needed at that time. For today's era, He has given Atma Kriya Yoga, through Paramahamsa Vishwananda, to help people realise the divine within and develop unconditional love.

Shyamdas

Shyamdas (1953-2013) was a pioneer in bringing Indian devotional and yogic traditions to the West. He published more than 15 books on various aspects of devotional philosophy. A talented musician, he released 6 albums of devotional chants, known as bhajans or kirtans. He sang to crowds all over the world, including at the Omega Institute and at yoga studios on practically every continent. Shyamdas, born Stephen Ted Schaffer, first came to India in 1972 to meet the great saint Neem Karoli Baba Maharaj, guru to Ram Das and others. Shortly thereafter he met the man who would become his guru, His Holiness Shri Goswami Prathameshji, one of the leading masters of Hindu spirituality, with whom he studied and lived for much of the next 18 years until Prathameshji passed away in 1990. During his time in India, Shyamdas developed fluency in Sanskrit, Hindi, Gujarati, and Brajbhasha, translating thousands of pages of classical and pre-modern texts into English. He became enamored with the mystic poets of North India, including the poems of Surdas, widely considered the Shakespeare of Hindi literature. His teaching style was infused with humor, calling his Woodstock community the "Bhajan Belt" and sprinkling in phrases like "Aum Shalom," a remnant from his secular Jewish upbringing. One of his trademark characteristics was that he was equally adept at making his rapt audiences explode in laughter as he was able to make them contemplate scriptures like Bhagavad Gita and the Krishna devotional literature that was closest to his heart. He touched the lives of thousands with his sharp wit, deep intellect, loving nature and ability to make even the most esoteric concepts accessible. For Shyamdas, his spiritual practice was in pursuit of the "bhava," what he described as "the enlightened, inspired state of pure being."
