He sat at the great Swamis feet as an eminent and beloved student for the next six years, until Swamijis passing in 1936.Sri Dasguptaji had written this very manuscript near the end of his life during the months of October 1983 through January 1984. He closed his eyes to this world shortly afterward, in March 1984.Yoga Niketan translated the manuscript into English and first published it in 2006.Swami Satyananda Giriji Maharaj, eminent and revered disciple of Swami Sriyukteshvar has written the following:During the time that Yoganandaji was in India [after returning from America], Sailendra Bejoy was with him practically all day every day and attended to him in many different ways. Swamiji had a great wish that he would take Sailendra Bejoy to America. Even after [Yoganandaji] went back to America, he wrote to me about this many times. But at that time, Sailendra Bejoy did not particularly have much interest in that direction.And also:With him was Bishnu Charan, nephew Ajitda, Bijoy Mullick, Ananda Lahiri, Sailen Dasgupta and another one or two people. Because of my illness, I had written to Swamiji that Sailendra should work as his attendant in my place. Swamiji had also received Sailen with truly great affection.~ YOGANANDA SANGA : Paramhansa Yoganandaji As I Have Seen and Understood Him by Swami Satyananda GiriYoga Niketan is a registered nonprofit organization, run by volunteerswho receive no compensation of any kind whatsoever.
