Lahiri Mahasaya is the respectful salutation given to Shyama Charan Lahiri (Dev Sharma) a Bengali Brahmin settled in Kashi (Benares, India). In 1861 he had a unique experience near Rishikesh (Uttaranchal, India) when he encountered the astral projection of Master Hemandranath, a Brahmic Raja Yogi of Kolkatta who had achieved synthesis with Brahman (ie. embodiment of Time and Space). Lahiri Mahasaya was touched and instantly absorbed into Master's ancient Brahmic Mul mantra which was later developed by Mahasaya into Kriya Yoga and distributed freely to anyone who approached the Mahasaya. Kriya Yoga has many developments such as Shirdi Sai Baba, Chinmayananda Mission etc. Although many non-family members of Lahiri Mahasaya claim his successorship (with numerous fanciful biograhies, fantastic autobiographies and concoctions targeted to Westerners), the true developments of Lahiri Mahasaya's philosophy are through 2 independent branches of descent through his 2 sons TinCouri (now vested in Pandit Shibendu Lahiri's NGO) and DuCouri (World Brahmic Council) both of which are non-commercial.
