		Swami ji was born in village Bamhama, Kupwara in B. Samat 1960 on Asuj Krishna Pakshi Triyadashi (1903) BC in a common Kashmiri Pandit Gharana of Dhar - a farmer and served as an ordinary employee of P.W.D. as well.

		Swami Lakshman Joo Birth and Initiation A luminary of the first magnitude on the spiritual firmament of modern times, Lakshmana Raina was born at Namchibal in Srinagar (Kashmir) on May 9, 1907.
		Finding the child far too precocious, his noble, god-fearing and devout parents put him in the tutorage of Swami Rama, who had been their family priest, and saint of high order in the tradition of the refined Tantric Monism of Kashmir known as the Trika system.
		In fact there was very high aiming in the core of Swamiji's very existence which was manifest in a happy combination of three lements: (i) Simplicity, an expression of simplicity; (ii) Enthusiasm, the vital push of the spirit within; (iii) Wisdom, the light of the soul as the portion of the Divine Himself.
