Travelling extensively throughout the East, he immersed himself in the wisdom of lamaseries, monasteries, and private libraries. Around 1865, after years of searching and meditation, he formulated his philosophy and took on Baba Bharata as a pupil. In 1893, sensing his impending end, he sent Bharata to Chicago's World Columbian Exposition, where he garnered acclaim for his lectures. Collaborating with American author William Walker Atkinson, Bharata's teachings were compiled into books attributed to Yogi Ramacharaka, achieving global recognition and ongoing popularity despite historical inaccuracies.
