| Lahiri Mahasaya biography and commentaries |
The book is a remarkable blend of
spirituality, literature and philosophy based on the life of Yogiraj Sri Shama
Charan Lahiri Mahasaya. It is actually part biography and part commentary on
Lahiri Mahasaya’s life, on the Indian scriptures, including The Bhagavad
Gita and Upanishads etc. An
ultimate guide and a must read for all the soul-seekers and all initiated into
the blessed path of Kriya yoga. The most
sacred and secret science of Kriya yoga - explained; taking reference directly
from none other than Swayang Brahma Lahiri Mahasaya.
Interestingly, there is enough
previously unpublished material about Lahiri Mahasaya’s life that it is well
worth reading for that alone. It is wonderful to learn of even the mundane
occurrences in the great yogi’s life, such as how he would take tiffin with a
little amount of ghee and sugar for breakfast and smoke a hookah everyday after
dinner, and how he travelled often by boat to the court of the King to tutor
his son. These warming and inspiring stories bring Lahiri Mahasaya even closer
to heart.
Going further deep, the book focuses
on the scientific essence of ancient Indian Yoga sadhana and it’s ideals as
revived by Bhagavan Shyama Charan Lahiri Mahasaya. It traces back the origin of
the term ‘Kriya yoga‘which is also mentioned in Yoga Sutra by Maharshi
Patanjali and was later changed to ‘Karmayoga‘ by Sri
Krishna. It puts light on the ancient scriptures and tries to find out
their true meaning, hiding behind, from the yogic perspective. The book
describes Yogiraj’s search for his guru Mahavatar Babaji, his exalted yogic
state.

A book of this stature cannot be
written only with a command of knowledge, language or with possessing the
writing faculty. For this is required sadhana-derived realization. The
authenticity of this biography lies in the introduction where Sri Satyacharan
Lahiri Mahasaya; grandson of Yogiraj Shama Charan Lahiri Mahasaya, commands his
disciple the author Dr. Ashoke Kumar Chatterjee, who was then an exalted
Kriyaban having meticulously and assiduously completed the higher stage of
Kriyas to write the biography. He had furnished many details regarding his
Grandfather Shyama Charan Lahiri to the author who has judiciously incorporated
these into the book.

Unlike biographies of great personalities it is rather
difficult to compose biographies of yogis. In the spiritual world, external
manifestations are almost absent in the lives of yogis. Biographies of noble
yogis are based on essences beyond senses rather than facts bearing external
manifestations. As and when necessitates yogis exhibit miracles, but the ideals
they establish or the path of sadhana which they introduce to mankind for the
attainment of salvation is more secret than secretive, the path which if
followed by man can enable him to arrive at his ultimate and highest objective
and this facet is regarded to be the greatest one in their biographies.
