Sri Prahlad Chandra Brahmachari, Indian Saint
Born in the remote village of Purushottampur in Orissa, He spread the message of humanity.

Sri Prahlad Chandra Brahmachari, Indian SaintBorn in the remote village of Purushottampur in Orissa in a pauper family, the famous saint, Sri Prahlad Chandra Brahmachari was well interested to spiritual matters from his childhood. As a child, he had to go out to get alms for the whole family and one day, he got an advise from a person, while begging for food, that he needs to climb on the mountain where numerous sadhus and saints meditate, for getting spiritual education. Listening to the advise, Sri Prahlad Chandra Brahmachari went on to climb the mountain and then he started to serve the saints by providing them wood for their sacred fire ceremonies.

While staying on the mountains and in the deep jungles, Sri Prahlad Chandra Brahmachari had an encounter with a mysterious personage one night, whom he referred as `my gum`, in his later life. However, though he returned to his home for leading a peaceful life with his parents, after that encounter, financial crisis of the family forced him to immigrate to the city of Kolkata and forced him to beg for the livelihood of his family. During his stay in the city of Kolkata, he had the habit of meditating on the banks of the Ganges River and at a later period, he became a chief priest in the temple of Kuldanga and Ramnathpur village. After spending a lot of time as the chief priest in the temple, he decided to go for a tour for spreading his thoughts and also the message of humanity. He went to America for spreading the message of humanity in the year of 1976 and his holy soul left the earthly abode in the year 1982.
