When Yogi Protoplasm was a science student of Andhra University he read Paul Brunton’s book, “Search in Secret India” which inspired him to visit Ramana Maharsi at his ashrama three days before Maharishi took Maha Samadhi. From then he was highly motivated into spirituality. It was a turning point in his life. Yogi Protoplasm is a tapasvi mahatma and has been living on a diet of only milk for the past 35 years. Yogiji came in close contact with the self realised saint Yogi Rama and served him for ten years from 1952 to 1962. When Yogi Rama appeared to be ill, Yogi Protoplasm and others took him to a doctor who was a great devotee of Ramana Maharishi in Chennai. Thinking that Yogi Rama was in a semi-conscious state, the doctor asked him – Do you know where you are? Yogi Rama who had not been speaking from three days answered – I am Everywhere. These were the last words of this great yogi. Paramahamsa Yogananda, the author of ‘Autobiography of a Yogi’ met Yogi Rama at Ramana Ashram when he visited India in 1935. Later he told his American disciples that if he had stayed with Yogi Rama for another half hour he might have given up the idea of going back to America. In 1992, Yogi Protoplasm was living in a cave in Uttarkashi where he got inspired to design Atma Parisodhana Yoga Sadhana Camps in which there is a preliminary introductory course and then advance courses. In the introductory 7-day camp seekers have to sit in three sessions of meditation of three hours each and have to listen to lectures on science and Vedanta for 2 hours every day. They are given a sattvic diet of milk and fruits only. Camps are held regularly at Yogi Rama Thapovanam Ashram in Nellore and at the campus of SVYASA Yoga University, Bengaluru, inspiring seekers to do serious sadhana to attain self-realization.
