DESCRIPTION:
Mahavatar Babaji is the Supreme Guru in the Indian line of masters who assume responsibility for the spiritual welfare of all SRF-YSS members who faithfully practice Kriya Yoga. 'Whenever anyone utters with reverence the name of Babaji,' Lahiri Mahasaya said, 'that devotee attracts an instant spiritual blessing.' Babaji has promised to guard and guide all sincere Kriya Yogis in their path toward the Goal. The Northern Himalayan craigs near Badrinarayan are still blessed by the living presence of Babaji. His mission in India has been to assist prophets in carrying out their special dispensations. He gave yoga initiation to Shankara, Kabir, and Lahiri Mahasaya. He is ever in communion with Christ; together they send out vibrations of redemption and have planned the spiritual technique of salvation for this age. - Paramahansa Yogananda, Autobiography Of A Yogi
