Rare video montage of Swami Kripalu set to his Ram chant. These short clips are comprised of different events in India and his four year stay in the United States at the Sumneytown and Summit Station ashrams.
In May of 1974, Kayavarohan Temple had its historical opening and installation of the sacred lingam carrying the image of Swami Kripalu's guru, Lord Lakulish.
Once lowered into the chamber, Swami Kripalu performs "prana pratishtha", a consecration ritual awakening the consciousness of Lord Lakulish into the temple.
