My Gurus: Naga Baba Hari Puri Ji Maharaj

Naga Baba Hari Puri Ji Maharaj

Naga Baba Hari Puri Ji Maharaj

Baba Hari Puri Ji Maharaj – delivered me into the hands of Guru Dattatreya. He made me aware of the Guru-Shishya Parampara,  inserted me into that oral tradition, and made me a baba, with the discipleship of 5 gurus. By the “iccha” of Guru Dattatreya, Baba Hari Puri Ji Maharaj, having the siddhi of Speech, was able to instruct me in English for two years until he left his body in 1972.

Tvam eva mata cha pita tvam eva!

With him, I discovered the love of guru by chela.
