Swami Tapovanam was a native of Kerala born in1889 near Palakkad. He, from early daysexhibited a yearning for renunciation and forleading a spiritual life. He was not only aprofound scholar in Sanskrit and scriptures butalso a practical mystic who spent several years of contemplation and reflection in the divine solitude of theHimalayas. Swami Sivananda, Founder-President of DivineLife Society and also a contemporary of Swami Tapovanamdescribed him as ‘He is verily Tapovanam, but not wild
Vanam
or jungle growth with rough growth of dry austerity andcynical seclusion. He is rather an
Upavanam
full of fragranceof the flowering of Vedanta and filled wih the fruits of hismaure realization.” Swami Chinmayananda, the founder of Chinmaya Mission studied under the tutelage of Swami Tapovanam at his abode in Uttarakasi.
