About the AuthorDas Brajeswarananda (K.N. Pathak ;born 30th November 1937), a recipient of gold medal for standing first in Master of Architecture degree from Roorkee University, joined Jadavpur University and retired from there as Professor & Head of the department of Architecture. He has the rare honour of receiving felicitation from the Indian Institute of Architects for his contribution to architectural education.
He was initiated to incessant prayer (Ajapa Naam Yoga) at the age of 15 by revered Swami Asimananda Sawaswatiji (Thakur) a descendent disciple of Sadguru Bijoy Krishna Goswami Prabu. He has a keen bent towards spirtualism. Although he spent a family life, his residence remained vibrant with Keertan, discources and frequenting saints. Within months after retirement from service, he along with his pious wife left home in pursuit of intense Naan Japa and meditation. Guruji within years unfolded their spirital doors in quick successions. While at Raipur he heard a loud oracle from the sky - VRINDAVAN and then his Guru's voice to go together and stay there in seclusion until further instruction. The splendour of the inner Vrindavan unfolded before them and drowned them in the ocean of joy. One day Adwaita Prabhu (15th cent AD) and Sadguru Gosaiji appeared together as if living person and asked him to look at their Tilak and do the same way, wear Kanthee (Tulsibeads) and white robes. They were renamed as Brajeswarananda and Krishnapriya and asked to live a renunciants' life while staying together. A few months later Gosaiji reappeared. Putting his feet on his head he asked him to start initiating the seekers on his behalf which miraculously started as specified. It was the Adwaita Saptami of 2005. Then they were asked to come back to Kolkata and carry on selfless service to mankind. |
