(Date: Unknown) http://www.avadhuta.com/ “Sri Harilal Poonja, lovingly referred to as Papaji, was born in a part of the Punjab that is now in Pakistan. He had his first direct experience of the Self at the age of nine. He met his Master, Sri Ramana Maharshi, in 1944. Shortly afterward he realized the Self in the presence of his master.

As a disciple of Sri Ramana Maharshi, the renowned Indian saint & sage who died in 1950, Papaji offered to speak about what he had experienced with his teacher.

Tens of thousands of people from all over the world visited Papaji, especially in Lucknow, his home, during the last years of his life. Seekers of truth from around the world visibly woke up in his presence. He had an extraordinary ability to seemingly transmit the experience of what has always been true and present: You are That!” ~ From Papaji’s Official Website at: http://www.avadhuta.com/

"When Papaji met Ramana, Ramana advised him to devote his sadhana (practice) to self-inquiry and to look fearlessly within for the God he had searched for, in vain, without. Ramana pointed out that visions of God are non-continuous experiences (“what good are gods that come and go” ), but that the One who witnesses these visions is always present."

“God is not an object to be seen, He is the subject. He cannot be seen, He is the Seer, Find this Seer.” ~ Ramana Maharshi – excerpt from THIS, Prose and Poetry of Dancing Emptiness, Sri H.W.L. Poonja.

"Ramana instructed Papaji to re-focus his path and to locate this “seer.” Thus, Ramana pointed Papaji to what is called the direct path, known in India as Advaita (nonduality) Vedanta. Although Ramana never conferred his lineage on anyone, including Papaji, his repeated visits to Ramana’s Ashram in Tiruvannamalai imbued his future teachings with a certain implied credential many Westerners sought."

Papaji's complete biography is published online at the Satsang Bhavan website, www.satsangbhavan.net

In addition, a moving, in-depth biography of Papaji is published in the 3-volume set of books called, Nothing Ever Happened, edited by David Godman. One reader wrote, that these books are a clear picture of a great and unassuming man. Another reader wrote, "My mind is permanently 'ruined' [by] reading this...[It] has increased my desire to be simple and free." Still, another wrote,"This is one of the best biographies of a spiritual being and teacher I have ever read...He always stayed a simple, ordinary, caring, unpretentious man, never declaring that he was on a `mission'. He always remained, simply, a free man. ~ Excerpts from http://www.stillnessspeaks.com/teacher/papaji/
