Baba Hari Dass
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Baba Hari Dass was born in 1923 near Almora, India. He is a silent monk and guru who was classically trained in the tradition of Ashtanga Yoga. He has maintained a continual vow of silence since 1952. He and his teachings have inspired the Mount Madonna Center near Santa Cruz, California, The Salt Spring Centre in British Columbia and the Sri Ram Ashram in Haridwar, India.
Baba Hari Dass first came to the attention of the West in the book by Baba Ram Dass, Be Here Now. Maharaj-ji (Neem Karoli Baba) instructed Ram Dass to receive teachings from Baba Hari Dass who taught Ram Dass in silence only using a chalkboard.
