Avdhoot Baba Shivanand - The Healing Guru of India

Acharya Keshav Devji

I am God. And you too are God. The only difference between you and me is that while I am aware of it, you are completely unaware.”

This is the answer Sri Sathya Sai Baba gives to people who query Him about His identity and divinity. This fundamental truth of man’s divine nature is at the heart of His message and mission. Indeed, in His discourses to devotees, He addresses them as ‘embodiments of the Divine Atma’. All who experience His pure and selfless love, benefit from His illuminating counsel, and witness His miraculous nature get a glimpse of the glory and majesty of God, and therefore of what one potentially and inherently is.

Sri Sathya Sai Baba was born as Sathyanarayana Raju on November 23, 1926 in the village of Puttaparthi, in the state of Andhra Pradesh in South India. Even as a child, His spiritual inclination and contemplative nature set Him apart from other children of His age, and He was known as ‘Guru’ and “Brahmajnani’ (knower of Brahman or Godhead) among His peers and others in the village. However, it was not until October 20, 1940, the day He made the historic declaration of His ‘avatarhood’, (‘avatar’ meaning Divinity Incarnate) that the world at large learnt of this divine phenomenon. Today, millions of devotees from all over the globe, professing various faiths, and hailing from various walks of life worship Him as an ‘avatar’, and an incarnation of the Sai Baba of Shirdi. Thousands gather every day at Prasanthi Nilayam, His ashram established by the village of Puttaparthi, for His ‘darshan’, where He moves among devotees, blessing them and providing spiritual succour and solace.

An icon of non-violence, human values and universal brotherhood, His Holiness Sri Sri Ravi Shankar is a renowned spiritual leader and humanitarian. His mission of uniting the world into a violence-free, global family continues to inspire millions the world over. He seeks global peace through service and fostering human values.

Born in 1956 in southern India, Sri Sri’s appeal cuts across all barriers of class, race, religion and nationality. Millions of Hindus revere Sri Sri as their religious and spiritual leader, while people of other faiths look up to him for promoting inter-faith harmony. Even as a young child, Sri Sri was often found in deep meditation and at the age of four, he surprised his parents by reciting the Bhagavad Gita. By the age of 17, he had obtained an advanced degree in Modern Physics and later received an Honorary Doctorate from Kuvempu University, India. In 1981, he founded the Art of Living Foundation, which today is one of the world's largest volunteer-based educational and humanitarian organisations. In 1997, he founded the International Association for Human Values (IAHV).

Sri Sri has brought to the masses ancient techniques which were traditionally kept exclusive. He has designed many self-development modules which people can take back home and use to calm their minds and heighten enthusiasm. Through these programmes, thousands have come out of depression, suicidal tendencies and aggressive behaviour.

With these literally immortal words, Osho both dictated his epitaph and dispensed with his biography. Having previously removed his name from everything, he finally agreed to accept ‘Osho’, explaining that it was derived from William James' ‘oceanic’. "It is not my name," he says, "it is a healing sound."

What can one say of Osho? The ultimate deconstructionist? A visionary who becomes the vision? Certainly a proposal to existence - that it is everyone's birthright to enjoy that same oceanic experience of true individuality. For that, Osho says, "There is only one path, which goes inwards, where you will not find a single human being, where you will only find silence, peace."
