Neem Karoli Baba: He is with us Here and Now

PREM PRAKASH was born in America and has been a yogi his entire adult life. During his first pilgrimage to India in this lifetime, he was granted a beautiful vision of the Divine Mother at an ashram outside of Haridwar, on the banks of the Ganga River. Since then, he has tried to live his life in Her presence, as a child participating in the lila of the Divine Couple.

Prem Prakash has received initiation from several gurus belonging to authentic lineages. He is the author of many books, magazine articles, essays, poems, and songs. In addition to being a yogi, Prem Prakash is also a woodsman, carpenter, mechanic, and champion powerlifter. He approaches relationships in the bhavana-the emotional mood-of friendship.

Prem Prakash has received recognition for his contribution to the transmission of yoga from India to the Western world, including being awarded the title "Yogi Raj" by the Institute of the Himalayan Tradition. He lives at the forested Kailash Ashram, home of the Green Mountain School of Yoga, in Middlebury, Vermont, U.S.A. www.gmsy.org
