Everyday, on their way to school, both boys used to pass by the cottage of a teacher of the Arabic & Persian languages. As a matter of fact this teacher was a Great Sufi Saint, who in the outer world he took on the appearance of an ordinary humble language teacher. This great saint received an instruction from his own Guru (Master) that two children would come to him and he must adopt them for spiritual training. Both of these children, although ignorant of the teacher’s spiritual status, used to greet him everyday. One day, as they were on their way back home, it started raining. On reaching the cottage of the saint, he came out and insisted that they come in until the rain stopped. They agreed and went inside. The Saint covered both boys with a blanket and they soon fell into a deep sleep. When they awoke, the world had changed for them. Both young men were given gifts of tremendous spiritual power. Such great powers take lifetimes to gain, and are beyond what most mortals are ever able to achieve, but both these young men received this energy in one stroke.
The language teacher was none other than the revered sufi saint, Fazl Ahmad Khan (lovingly called Huzoor Maharaj) and the young men were Mahatma Raghubar Dayal Ji (also known as Chacha Ji) and his elder brother Mahatma Ram Chandra Ji (also known as Lala Ji). Both these young men became regular visitors to the saint’s cottage, and over time they were given the training that enabled them to be transformed into great spiritual teachers in their own right.
At the time of leaving this world for his heavenly abode, Huzoor Maharaj called both Chacha Ji and Lala ji to him and instructed them to go to another disciple of his Guru for further training. This new teacher was the great sufi saint Abdul Ghani khan. He happily accepted both young men as his disciples and kept them in his guidance for many years.
As time passed, Chacha Ji got married and had a son named Radha Mohan Lal ji, who also became a great teacher and was himself initiated into the great line of Sufi Saints by the revered Abdul Ghani Khan. His eldest son, Sri Ravindra Nath, was also initiated into this path by the revered Abdul Ghani Khan Maharaj. We are so lucky that he is still, to this very day, teaching and transmitting the powerful spiritual energy of this great lineage.
