Prabhuji is a faithful official member of Hinduism, as well as a universalist advaita mystic. He combines his deep religious commitment with a remarkable artistic work as a writer and abstract painter. He is recognized by his line of disciplic succession as a realized master. As an avadhūta, a title conferred upon him in recognition of his state of realization, he has developed the Retroprogressive Path, an original contribution rooted in the inclusive principles of sanātana-dharma (the Hindu religion).His solid training includes a doctorate in Vaiṣṇava philosophy, awarded by the prestigious Jiva Institute of Vedic Studies in Vrindavan, India, and a doctorate in Yogic philosophy earned at Yoga-Samskrutham University. These doctorates reaffirm his commitment to traditional teachings and his connection to the spiritual roots of the Hindu religion.In 2011, with the blessings of his Gurudeva, he adopted the path of a secluded bhajanānandī and withdrew from society to lead the contemplative life of a hermit. Since then, he has been living as an independent Christian-Marian Hindu religious hermit. His days have been spent in solitude, praying, writing, painting, and meditating in silence and contemplation.Prabhuji is the sole disciple of H.D.G. Avadhūta Śrī Brahmānanda Bābājī Mahārāja, who in turn is one of the closest and most intimate disciples of H.D.G. Avadhūta Śrī Mastarāma Bābājī Mahārāja.Prabhuji was appointed as the successor of the lineage by his master, who conferred upon him the responsibility of continuing the sacred paramparā of avadhūtas, officially appointing him as guru and ordering him to serve as Ācārya successor under the name H.H. Avadhūta Bhaktivedānta Yogācārya Śrī Ramakrishnananda Bābājī Mahārāja.Prabhuji's vast literary contribution includes books in Spanish, English, and Hebrew, such as Kundalini Yoga: The Power is in you, What is, as it is, Bhakti-Yoga: The Path of Love, Tantra: Liberation in the World, Experimenting with the Truth, Advaita Vedanta: Be the Self, Yoga: union with reality, commentaries on the Īśāvāsya Upanishad and the Diamond Sūtra, I am that I am, The Symbolic turn, Being, Questioning your answers: Philosophy as a question, Beyond answers: Philosophy in the eternal quest, Phenomenology of the sacred: Foundations for a Retroprogressive Phenomenology, and Discovering the Last God.
