"Yogi Bhajan was declared a Master of Kundalini Yoga at the age of 16. He came to the United States in 1969 and openly taught this transformative technology for the next 35 years. In the turbulent, drug culture of the 70s, Yogi Bhajan first reached out to the youth. He recognized that their experimentation with drugs and ""altered states of consciousness"" expressed a desire to experience themselves and a longing for family, for connection to their own soul and to their community. In response to this innate longing, he created a family, known as 3HO (Healthy, Happy, Holy Organization) and soon 3HO ashrams began springing up across the United States and throughout the world. He sparked a movement whose tendrils have woven their way into numerous aspects of our culture. Yoga and meditation have gained widespread acceptance in the West, as well as, the holistic health movement he introduced through diet, herbs and lifestyle technologies. Born Harbhajan Singh in what is now Pakistan to a family of healers and community leaders, Yogi Bhajan studied comparative religion and Vedic philosophy in his undergraduate years and went on to receive his Masters in Economics with honors from Punjab University. Years later, he earned his Ph.D. in communications psychology from the University of Humanistic Studies in San Francisco. He emerged as a religious, community, and business leader with a distinguished reputation as a man of peace, world vision, wisdom, and compassion. He founded several food companies that manufacture and distribute natural products based on these teachings. He fostered economic development in communities around the world and authored several books on yoga philosophy as well as business and communication during his lifetime. The Kundalini Research Institute continues his legacy through The Yogi Bhajan Library of Teachings, International Teacher Training in Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan(R), and continuing to publish collections of lectures and kriyas to serve the community of teachers, students and practitioners around the world.
