"Smarane Mahayogi Barada Charan Majumder" : A Talk by Basabi Majumder

Born to Dakshina Charan Majumder and Matangini Devi, Barada Charan Majumder (16 Sravan 1293 B.S.—1 Agrayan 1347 B.S.) was a householder-Yogi who never wanted to come to the limelight as a spiritual master. Having worked at Goursundar High School at Nimtita for five years, he joined Lalgola Maheshnarayan Academy School as the Headmaster in 1921. During his lifetime, few people could know him closely. Kazi Nazrul Islam, the “rebel poet of Bengal”, who was initiated into Yoga by him, tried to introduce him to the public. Sri Aurobindo called him, “the greatest Yogi of Modern Bengal”. Two booklets authored by him in Bengali titled Path Harar Path and Dwadosh Bani were published posthumously. This talk, entitled ‘Smarane Mahayogi Barada Charan Majumder’, was delivered by the great Yogi’s grand-daughter Ms. Basabi Majumder on Sunday, 26 May 2019, at the office of Overman Foundation Trust.
