"WHEN ADI KAILASH WAS TO BE BUILT, I PERSONALLY SAT AND COLLECTED CLAY AND MADE BRICKS WITH WOODEN PLANKS. 72 BRICKS I BAKED MYSELF. IT TOOK ONE WEEK. AND FOR A LONG TIME, I WOULD GO TO ANY HALL WHERE WE CONDUCT OUR PROGRAMS, AND START CLEANING IT MYSELF. IF THE PROGRAM STARTS AT 6 AM, I WILL GO AT 4 AM AND CLEAN, WASH IT, PUT THE GURUS' PICTURES, AND WHEN IT IS 6 AM, I WILL GO AND SIT ON MY SIMHASANA - THRONE!" - The Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism (SPH) on the early history of Adi Kailasa Sarvajnapeetham, which is today a sprawling city for enlightenment in the outskirts of Bengaluru, South India.

Yogi Ramsuratkumar was born in the town called Laalgunj near Kashi, in North India, on December 18, 1918 and from a young age, was always attracted to the dense spiritual life that existed in the sacred city of Kashi.  Finally in 1952, in order to pursue his ultimate purpose, he left Varanasi  for Anandashram in Kerala. Yogi Ramsuratkumar himself says that his moment of enlightenment was the moment of initiation from Swami Ramdas into the mantra, “Om Sri Ram Jai Ram Jai Jai Ram” . Upon coming to Tiruvannamalai in 1959, Yogi Ramsuratkumar received initiation from Ramana Maharshi, when he was ordained as the next successor of the ancient Arunachala Sampradaya and the ancient kingdom of Adi Arunachala Samrajyam. From the main Tiruvannamalai train station to the Punnai Tree, then from the burial ground to his own house which was owned and maintained by his devotees Yogi Ramsuratkumar began enriching everyone who approached him. His extremely profound and unorthodox teachings attracted the seekers even from the west. Yogi Ramsuratkumar became highly established not only in the great town surrounding Arunachala but also in global platforms. References     1. In the talk from 7 September 2020, "Unclutch to Go Beyond Delusion: Guaranteed Solution" HDH recalls how even though Yogi Ramsuratkumar would always be smoking the village beedi, He would never smell smoke or feel nausea around him. He was such a graceful being and the space around him was always incredibly pure, both in smell and in the deep feeling of joy and bliss that Yogi Ramsuratkumar radiated.  Read about Yogi Ramsuratkumar and the Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism : https://ift.tt/39oslKf #guru #nithyananda #yogiramsuratkumar #ramsuratkumar #tiruvannamalai #arunachala #bhaktiyoga
