Early Life
————-
Rajaram Mishra was born 21 December 1871 in Surhurpur, near Ayodhya, in British India (present-day Uttar Pradesh). He was from a well to do, land owning family.
When he was seven, his grandfather died; contemplating this had a profound effect on Rajaram. At the age of nine, Rajaram left his home unannounced to follow a spiritual path of renunciation, but was soon returned to his parents by a policeman. On returning home, he asked his parents for permission to leave home and begin the life of a recluse. His parents wanted him to marry and live the life of a householder and asked their family guru to convince Rajaram to forget his dream of a reclusive life.
The family guru, however, was so impressed with Rajaram's advanced state of wisdom and spiritual evolution that he gave up any attempt to change the boy's mind. The parents then also acquiesced and gave their permission for Rajaram to leave. Two days later, Rajaram formally renounced his family life and left his boyhood home in search of solitude in the Himalayas.
Finding His Guru
—————————-
Rajaram traveled by foot to the town of Haridwar and then on to Rishikesh, the gateway to the Himalayas. Here he began the search for a suitable guru or spiritual master. Rajaram met many wise sages, but none of them met his requirements of lifelong celibacy and an intimate knowledge and experience of the Vedas.
Five years later, at the age of fourteen, in a village in Uttar Kashi, Rajaram found his chosen master and became a disciple of Svāmī Krsnānanda Sarasvatī. Rajaram was given the name of Brahma Chaitanya Brahmacari. He then became the disciple in his Guru’s ashram and, subsequently, on his master's instructions, he retired to a nearby cave and visited his master only once a week.
At the age of twenty five, he emerged from his cave and permanently rejoined his Guru at his ashram. At the age of 34, he was initiated into the order of "Sannyas" at the Kumbh Mela. He was ordained into the ascetic order and given the formal name Svāmī Brahmānanda Sarasvatī, that is, Svāmī Brahmānanda of the Sarasvatī branch of the medieval Dashanami Sampradaya monastic order.
Spiritual Journey
————————-
The greater portion of his life had been lived in total seclusion; he is understood to have created a cave in central India where he lived for forty years. In 1941, at the age of 70, after repeated requests over a period of twenty years, Brahmānanda accepted the position of Jagadguru Shankaracharya (spiritual leader) of Jyotir Math, a position that had been vacant for more than 150 years.
Brahmānanda responded to the request by saying: "You want to put a lion to chains who moves about in the jungle freely. But if you so like, I honour your words and am ready to shoulder the responsibilities of the pitha (monastery) management. By shouldering this responsibility, I would be serving the cause for which Adi Śankarācārya stood. I fully dedicate myself for the mission."
Becoming Sankaracharya of Garhwal, Varanasi and Darbhanga also endorsed Brahmānanda. about 100 Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.Swami #BrahmanandaSaraswati (1871-1953) — known as Guru Dev — was the guru of Maharishi #MaheshYogi, Swami #KarpatriJiMaharaj and Swami #SwarupanandaSaraswati.
