It is now more than 20 years since Sri Swamiji has come back to his devotees in his new physical form. His physical presence from his previous body is clearly defined in this body by his beautiful jata, the famous cobra bite on the inside of his right leg, and the fingers deformed from the palms being joined and fingers interlocked during his boyhood tapas, his amazing energy and personality, his sense of humour and the glow in his eyes. A Yogi is love. He has only unconditional love for all his devotees young and old, from the first body and present body.
This is Sri Sri Sri Shivabalayogi fully manifested in his new body and more determined than ever! He is still carrying forth the mission that was originally set out for him by Lord Shiva, which is to put the people in the world in the line of meditation and also to bring peace into these dark times the world is facing at the present. The mission has grown continuously in North America since Sri Swamiji’s return to North America in 1998. The Ganesh place ashram is testament to the prophecy he made in 1988 in his original body, when he said that his first ashram would be built in North Carolina. This was built in 2001, the same year he went into his 1 year tapas for world peace (shortly before the tragic 9/11 attacks happened).

New grounds are also reached now. The mission has expanded into Canada - Toronto, Ontario to be exact. In 5 years, the mission has expanded very rapidly here. The magic and miracles that occur at the Toronto programs are just like Bangalore, Adivarapupeta and Agra. The bhajans, bhava and emotions that occur here are very powerful, soothing, uplifting and loving. There are not enough words to describe Sri Swamiji’s presence in Canada. The mission is now growing every year here in Canada and across the world. All across India, the United States and in Canada the love of the Living Yogi is spreading like wildfire in the hearts of all those who approach him. Devotees of the world are invited to experience this rare opportunity and feel forever changed with grace of the Yogi’s love and energy. To know Sri Shivabalayogi is to know God’s perfection of love.
