Prabhuji is a writer, painter, an avadhūta, the creator of Retroprogressive Yoga, and a realized spiritual ‎‎master. When he was eight years old, he had a mystical experience that motivated his search for the ‎‎Truth, or the Ultimate Reality. This transformed his life into an authentic inner and outer pilgrimage. He ‎‎has dedicated more than fifty years to the exploration and practice of different religions, ‎philosophies, ‎paths of liberation, and spiritual disciplines. He has absorbed the teachings of great yogis, ‎pastors, ‎rabbis, monks, gurus, philosophers, sages, and saints whom he personally visited during his ‎years of ‎searching. For Prabhuji, awakening at the level of consciousness, or the transcendence of the ‎egoic ‎phenomenon, is the next step in humanity’s evolution. Prabhuji has chosen to retire from ‎society and ‎lead the life of a hermit. He spends his days in solitude, praying, studying, writing, painting, ‎and ‎meditating in silence and contemplation. ‎
