| Yogi Bhajan 1929-2004 " I have come to Create Teachers. I have not come to Gain Students" |
Born in India in 1929, Yogi Bhajan was the son of
a Medical Doctor. He grew up in privileged
environments of Private Schools and often spent
his Summers in the exclusive Mountain region of
Himachal Pradesh.
At the age of eight Yogi Bhajan started his Yogic
Training with Sant Hazara Singh. At the age of
sixteen and a half, Sant Hazara Singh proclaimed
Yogi Bhajan to be the Master of Kundalini Yoga.
Yogi Bhajan was the first to publicly teach
Kundalini Yoga, when he arrived in the West in
1968, he announced he had come to the West "to
create teachers, not to gain students".
A deeply devoted Sikh, his inspiration and example
motivated thousands to embrace the Sikh way of
life, implementing Selfless Service for others.
In 1971, Yogi Bhajan told his secretary that he had
just become the Mahan Tantric. Her curiosity led
her to ask what he meant, and he explained that
when he was a young man he studied with a very
great man, Sant Hazara Singh and this Saintly Yogi
was the Mahan Tantric. There is only one Mahan
Tantric on the earth at a time. Yogiji knew he was
the best student studying with him, so he was
convinced that the power of the Mahan Tantric
would be passed on to him. But because of this
thought, this expression of ego, when Santji
passed on the power, it went to another disciple -
Lama Lilan Po. In 1971 when Lama Lilan Po
passed he then bestowed this power to Yogi
Bhajan and this was how Yogiji became the Mahan
Tantric.
Yogi Bhajan's basic message was "It is your
birthright to be healthy, happy, and holy."
