THE PORTRAIT OF MASTER MORYA THAT HIS DISCIPLE RAMASWAMIER HAD

 

 

S. Ramabadra Ramaswamier was a Brahmin and a disciple of master Morya.

 

Ramaswamier died in 1893, and his son K. R. Sitaraman published in 1894 in Madras a pamphlet entitled "Isis Even More Revealed" where was the image that I put above.

 

And below the portrait appears the following text:

 

 

«                  MAHATMA “M …………………….......” (MORYA)                 

                       From a Drawing presented to my father .

 

  The original bears the following: "To Rama B. Yogi, my faithful ~~~~~ (the word is indecipherable) in commemoration of the event of 5^th, 6^th and 7^th October 1882, in the jungles of Sikkim." »  

 

 

Those dates refer to the skills that Ramaswamier went through to be able to meet master Morya, and I tpublished this event in this other article (see link ).

 

It is not known what became of the original drawing, and how it was produced and delivered to Ramaswamier, although it was probably materialized to him in the same way as the portrait of master Kuthumi was  sent to his lay pupil, Mr. Alfred Sinnett.

 

 

And it is interesting to note that the portrait that tmaster Morya gave to his disciple Ramaswamier is very similar to the portrait that Mr. Harrisse made four years earlier in New York:

 

 

 

And to the portrait that Hermann Schmiechen painted two years later:
