Shri Sudhir Ranjan Bhaduri Shri Shri Sudhir Ranjan Bhaduri Translator: Shani Evenstain

Shri Sudhir Ranjan Bhaduri Shri Sudhir Ranjan Bhaduri (Sudhir Babu) was born in 1889, as a prince to the royal family in the Nadya district in west Bengal. This district was well-known for spiritual giants who grew out of it, like Shri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu and Shri Shri Shiyama Charan Lahiri Mahasaya. Since childhood, Sudhir Babu had been searching for God and had a deep thirst for spiritual knowledge. His prayers were answered, as from the earliest days of his youth he was guided by wise people and was exposed to rare scriptures and books. He was so fascinated by the knowledge revealed to him, that he could spend days and nights diving deeper and deeper into his books. As he grew up, his parents had hoped to see him settled down, and so arranged him to be married. Only his wife left him after only eight days, as she could not bare the fact that he was spending most of his time with his books. Shortly after his wife left, Sudhir Babu decided to give up the royal life he was born into, and left his family. Packing his books in a bag, Sudhir Babu traveled to Varanasi, the city where every spiritual journey begins, hoping to find a master to guide him. Not finding one, he settled down in the Golden Temple (Kashi Vishwanath) and decided he would fast and pray until he finds a Master. After three days of fasting, saint Bhrigu was revealed to him and gave him initiation. Sudhir Babu went into a trance, in which the sage gave him the knowledge of Astrology and Brahma Chinta. During his initiation, he promised sage Bhrigu he would spread the knowledge for the benefit of humanity and not keep it only to himself.

Coming out of the trance, Sudhir Babu remembered everything vividly. Saint Bhrigu told him he was chosen to exposethe knowledge that was hidden in Tibetans monasteries during the 13th century. The knowledge was called Bhrigu-Chinta or Brahma Chinta Pranalli, and included five branches – Astrology, Tantra, Ayurveda, Raja Yoga and Mundane. That day, Sudhir Babu’s most meaningful studies commenced. He then dedicated twenty years of his life gathering the ancient scriptures, which were spread in various parts of India and Tibet. He succeeded in collecting 108 parts of the Bhrigu Chinta. The West has learned about the Brahma Chinta knowledge from the meetings between Dr. Paul Brunton and Sudhir Babu. Dr. Brunton had well described this meeting [which took place circa 1920], in his exemplary book "A Search in Secret India." This book describes Brunton’s search for the real Masters of Yoga in India. Practicing Brahma Chinta Pranalli brought Sudhir Babu to a state of self-realization. However, it is customary in India that a man must have a physical teacher at least once in his life. Sudhir Babu therefore kept looking for a great living master to initiate him. He finally encountered Lahiri Mahasaya, with whom he studied Raja Yoga, Karma Yoga and Kriya Yoga, and exchanged knowledge of Astrology. With the aid of sage Bhrigu, Sudhir Babu learned he was yet to fulfill his karmatic duties. He was to get married again and have a family in order to fulfill his earthly duties. He got an exact description of his wife to be, her name and where she lived. When the time was right, he asked her father’s permission to marry her, and then for the second time he became a family man. Sudhir Babu and his wife gave birth to five children, but only two survived – Shri Brahma Gopal Bhaduri and Shri Km. Durga Rani Bhaduri, Bhavani. Shri Sudhir Babu left his body in 1956, when his son was eleven years old and his daughter 13 years old. Durga Rani Bhaduri, Bhavani, left her body in 1998.

Shri Shri Sudhi Ranjan Bhadury & Kalyani Devi Shri Sudhir Ranjan Bhadury ( Sudhi Babu) was a great yogi. Born in 1880 to the royal Bengali Brahmin family ( in Nabadvip), Nadia district in west Bengal. He was the second child among three children. Shri Sudhir Ranjan Bhadury had been searching for God and had a deep thirst for spiritual knowledge from an early age. His prayers were answered, as from the earliest days of his youth he was guided by wise people and was exposed to rare scriptures and books. At some point, after schooling, Shri Sudhir Ranjan Bhadury decided to give up the royal life he was born into and left his family, heading to Varanasi, hoping to find a master to guide him. His selfless world-view was a part of his motivation to discarding the pleasures of royalty and move to Varanasi, and not retreat in far forest or in the Himalayas as that would have been work only for his own inner self. After days of Tapasya [austerity], as per the guidance of his Guru, Shri Shri Shyama Charan Lahiri Ji Mahashay, Saint Bhrigu was revealed to him. Shri Shri Sudhir Ranjan Bahdury was initiated and was given the knowledge of Jyotish (Astrology), Tantra (Kularnav and Maa Bhadrikali knowledge ) and Brahma Chinta Pranali, which had been hidden in Tibetans monasteries from the 13th century. During his initiation he promised sage Bhrigu he would spread the knowledge for the benefit of humanity and not keep it only to himself. He has dedicated his whole life to gathering ancient scriptures, which were spread in various parts of India and Tibet. He succeeded in collecting parts of the Bhrigu Sutras. These scriptures are now part of the unique and rare books and scriptures collection, which is in the Bhadury's family home in Varanasi, India. The Bhadury's library contains at least 40,000 manuscripts in various subjects, and languages. His rarest books collection and ancient secretive knowledge attracted many scholars and spiritual seekers to his house over the year. People who met him were struck by his graceful charismatic personality, his simplicity and magnetism. His sharing of thoughts and unrevealed teachings were reserved for his closed disciples who came to his house daily in the evening hours (Satsang) and had the privilege of learning and practicing the secretive Bhrigu Yoga Kriyas. The west has learned about the Brahma Chinta Pranali from the meetings between Paul Brunton and Shri Sudhi Ranjan Bhadury, which took place in 1920. Brunton had well described these meetings in his exemplary book “A Search in Secret India". This book describes Brunton’s search for the real Masters of Yoga in India. In chapter 12 titled "Written in the Stars", he retells the story of how he came to meet Shri Shri Sudhi Ranjan Bhadury and describes their meetings, where he was exposed to Shri Shri Sudhi Ranjan Bhadury's astrological work and was given a unique yoga practice. Many peculiar happenings were described by people who were blesses and privileged enough to meet Sudhi babu in person. One of these people was a famous and wealthy

merchant who came to meet Sudhi Babu at his house. The merchant was extremely worried as the key to his safe was lost somewhere on his journey from Kolkata back to Varanasi. He rushed to Sudhi Babau and begged for his help. Sudhi Babu gave an accurate description of where the key was left (on the left back side of a railway track) and so it was joyfully found. Shri Sudhui Ranjan Bhadury was married to Kalyani Devi on 1934. Regardless of her relatively young age she was a true form of love and affection and was blessed with a divine grace to give birth to these souls and be a wife to a Siddha Mahatma. She gave birth to five children, but only two survived – Shri Brahma Gopal Bhadury and his sister Kumari Durga Rani Bhadury, Bhavani. As a householder Sudhir Babu worked as a teacher, as of 1948, at the Bengali Tola School in Varanasi. Even the life of sages can be subject to envy and evil forces; thus his son's life was threatened in one situation, when he was five years old, Shri Sudhi Ranjan Bhadury nearly lost him. His son actually died but the Yogi used Mrit Sanjeevani Vidya - a system of giving life to a dead person by again infusing soul in him- and preformed a Kriya of three days which eventually brought Shri Shri Brahma Gopal Bhadury back to life. Sage Bhadury preformed a special Tantric Kriya (Pooja) in his home to transform it into a Panch Mundi Aasan, a highly charged place. In the late years of his life disciples found him to be in Bhava-Samadhi. Shri Shri Sudhir Ranjan Bhadury had a constant vision of Maa Bhadhrikali, of God, and before submerging himself as a part of infinite, Para Brahman, the Yogi was blessed with the Siddhi of Maa Bhadhrikali. Shri Sudhui Ranjan Bhadury left his body in 1956 when his son was 13 years old and daughter 15 years old. Shri Brahma Gopal Bhadury currently lives in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India, with his family, in the same house where his father had lived before.

Shri Sudhir Ranjan Bhadury and Kalayani Devi

Shri Shri Brahma Gopal Bhaduri 1942)

(born

Shri Shri Brahma Gopal Bhaduri Shri Brahma Gopal Bhaduri was known for his wisdom from an early age, and was called ’Sruti-Dhar’ - he who is able to contain knowledge and remember it after hearing it only once. Even as a child, many Yogis and spiritual figures came to consult him and asked for advice; among them was Gopinath Kaviraj [the senior disciple of Swami Vishuddhananda Saraswati and the one who helped Sir John Woodruff studying the Tantric scriptures], who used to consult Shri Brahma Gopal Bhaduri when he was only 13 years old. Dr. Bhaduri has three Doctorates [in Sitar, Philosophy and Poetry], and fourteen degrees of Post Gratitude in various fields. Today, Dr. Bhaduri is known as a Sage and as a Yogi who controls the secrets of Tantra, Ayurveda and Jyotish (Vedic Astrology). He is considered a great ’Tantric Caulachari’. He has dedicated his life to helping the poor and needy, and cares for people from all casts and origins, using Ayurveda, Tantra and Jyotish.

Varanasi Shri Brahma Gopal Bhaduri has decided that the time has come to spread the knowledge concealed in the Bhrigu-Chinta, a knowledge that had been secretly passed on from Master to disciple over the centuries. The scriptures were recovered from various parts of India and Tibet by his father, Sudhir Babu, and himself. Dr. Bhaduri has, then, recruited his disciples for the task of translating the hidden knowledge in the 75,000 parchment scriptures available, the oldest which is 1000 years old. Shri Brahma Gopal Bhaduri is perfect example for a Yogi who is also a householder. His life manifests how the purpose of Yoga can be achieved, while carrying out worldly duties, such as being a husband, a father and a grandfather. Guruji portrays the purpose of Yoga quite vividly – practicing Yoga in order to strengthen our inner forces and develop our capacity to give, so that eventually we would be able to help others. In order to spread this knowledge in the West, Dr. Bhaduri was looking for just the right people; he has chosen two of his disciples, Shivshankar Tripathi [Shibuji] and his wife, Dr. Ratna Chowdhury [Ratnaji], who have been working since on the unique task of bridging East and West.

The waiting room for Guruji’s office The following sentences by Guruji, conveyed in the opening of one of the workshops in Varanasi, express his attitude of unity – "If I feel, or we shall feel difference because of religion, place, atmosphere or languages, we shall have no brotherhood at all. Let us try feeling we are all one. That is because of the supreme force that had created us and we are part of. It does not matter if we believe in God or if we call it a supreme force or any other name, we

are still all equals. Suppose a person is called a sage or enlightened, it is only because the knowledge and the soul have been awakened in him. That is why from today on we have to treat everybody the same. There is no difference between one another. We shall talk, move and feel as equals, and in this way brotherhood will be developed. After we receive the spiritual knowledge, it is our duty to help others, to teach others, and we must do something humanitarian for humanity. That is the way of expressing brotherhood. You are coming from Israel and I am supposed to be an Indian. But remember that Israel and India are parts of the same world. Only if you feel limitations, you are supposed to be called ’people of different country’. Feel you are people of the wide world as this feeling is very important for Yoga practice. The meaning of the word ’Yoga’ is to unify, to converge. And when spirituality and worldliness are combined in the right way, Yoga occurs" (Varanasi, September 1999).

Dr. Bhadury is also a member of India International Center, IIC, New-Delhi and a member of the Human Rights Association in Varanasi, India. As many people declare and believe he has great authority over the psychic powers but he seldom displays it; he lives life like an ordinary man though he possess the powers to appear simultaneously in two different places regardless of its distance, he has a unique way of curing physical ailments where he can take the Karmic Bhog[ results of one's action] on himself leaving the affected totally free form it.

The world is his home meeting devotees world-wide he treats everyone as part of a global family of almighty without discrimination of name, age, race, languages and so forth. His disciples often feel he connects with them all on an inner domain. It was in 1994 when Dr. Arun Kumar Rai's, a disciple of Shri Brahma Gopal Bhadury from Varanasi, was visiting his sister, Neelam B. Rai, in Pune. His nephew, just a new born baby was in a critical health condition as he was vomiting blood. Dr. Rai, who was out of his sister's house at that time was informed of the situation and immediately made a phone call to Shri Dr. Bhadury in Varanasi and asked for his help and advice. The following morning Dr. Rai was amazed at the happenings described to him by his sister; she reported that during the night Shri Brahma Gopal Bhadury appeared in front of the baby in his Yogic form and did some healing Kriya, touching his forehead. The distance between Varanasi and Pune is over 1600 km. The baby was out of danger the following morning. Anandamay Maa, the great spiritual soul, visited Maa Durga Rani and Shri Brahma Gopal Bhadury at their house in Ramapura, Varanasi. In 1969 the great philosopher, Tantric & Jyotishi, Pt. Gopinath Kaviraj ji, Shri Anandamay Maa's great devotee was also fond of the Bhadury Ji's and attended their home in Varanasi.

Nowadays mostly lost in trance through which he exhibits the Yogic stages of Amavasya (new moon night, total darkness), a state in which the dissolution of all senses occurs due to continuous fixation of the eyes; and Purnima (full moon light, total illumination)

caused by abandoning also the use of the third eye so that even the half vision provided by the third eye is let go of. Shri Mati Dr. Rita Bhadury, wife of Shri Brahma Gopal Bhadury, was born in the summer of 1947, in Varanasi to a Brahmin family originally from Punjab, Jalandhar. She is the sixth child among nine brothers and sisters. She was brought up in a family who led a religious live style and followed great Indian morals standards. Shri Mati Dr. Rita Bhadury's grandfather was a great Astrologer of his time. As music was a significant part of the family life Shri Mati Dr. Rita Bhadury was playing Sitar since a very young age. Being raised in this artistic environment Shri Mati Dr. Rita Bhadury chose Indian Classical Music as a her main subject in her adult academic life; her choice reflected not only her appreciation for music and education but also a choice of a divine path as it is considered a great blessing of Goddess Maa Saraswati, (the mother of divine knowledge and Music), to be involved in these fields of knowledge in one's life. In 1976 Shri Mati Dr. Bhadury was appointed as a music teacher at Central Hindu Girls School Kamaccha, Varanasi (CHGS which was founded by Anne Besant). Being a teacher she served wholeheartedly and made every possible effort to pass forward all her knowledge in order to educate students with good knowledge, creating better society and hence good citizens for her nation. In 1996 she was honored by the king of Varanasi, Raja Benaras, Shri Vibhuti Narayan, for an extraordinary special work she initiated for her students in CHGS. Shri Mati Dr. Bhadury apart from taking care of her own family and disciples is always involved in charity and initiating great projects for the benefits of the mass. For such activities performed by her together with academic excellence she was rewarded in 2003 together with her husband Shri Brahma Gopal Bhadury with Kashi Rattan Award. Shri Mati Dr. Rita Bhadury has a B.ed from Banaras Hindu University (BHU) holds Master Degree in two subjects Education and Music; M.ed and M.Mus. Shri Dr. B.G. Bhadury and his wife, Shri Mati Dr. Rita Bhadury, were united in 1970. Her entering the house made it a home for all; her presence was itself a blessing that changed the form of the house into a vivid pleasant home. Her loyalty, dedication and devotion to her husband and family can never be expressed in words; since that day till date one can witness and feel first-hand the essence and intensity of affection only by observing her care and action. She served her sister-in-law in an unparalleled devotion and ever since takes the family's mission to new heights.

It was the beginning of 1973 when Shri Mati Rita Bhadury was pregnant with her twin sons. During one night she had experienced a peculiar phenomenon; a light was reaching her, getting closer and finally entering her womb and emerging in the bodies of both babies. It was June 3rd 1973 when the twin sons saw their first light and as it is

believed - blessed their parents with joy and good fortune. These two divine souls were born to carry forward the inherited knowledge of their grandfather, Shri Sudhir Ranjan Bhadury. It is believed that the essence of the holy grandfather is in the twin sons so that one is meant to carry out the message and knowledge of Bhrigu Yoga and the second is meant to serve and help the mass by means of Jyotish, Vedic Astrology.

Shri Dr. B. G. Bhadury and his wife, Shri Mati Dr. Rita Bhadury, have dedicated their lives to helping the poor and needy, taking care of people from all casts and origins, using knowledge of the Bhrigu Yoga-Brahma Chinta Pranali dynast. Their door is literally always open to anyone seeking advice, help and spiritual knowledge. Their lifestyle is a perfect example of yogis who are also householders and their lives manifest how the purpose of yoga can be achieved, while carrying out worldly duties. Shri Brahma Gopal Bhadury portrays the purpose of Yoga quite vividly – practicing yoga in order to strengthen the inner forces and develop the capacity to give, in order to eventually use the fruits of their spiritual achievements to help others. =================================
