After completing the study of law, he became a Government Advocate and Inspector and District Superintendent of Police.

He later stated, 'This paralyzed my ego.' Because of this encounter, he started a sAdhanA, which contained both bhakti and rAja yoga as well as pure j~nAna. Later on having become a teacher himself, he would pass on to others only the j~nAna aspect, and even criticise both the bhakti and rAja yoga aspects. In 1923 he came to realize his true nature. He assumed the name Shri Atmananda and began teaching. He continued to work in the Police Department up to 1939. Later on, he once said that a profession within the police or the military offers an ideal foundation for a spiritual sAdhanA, because such a profession offers in particular the maximum obstacles and temptations.

In 1959, Atmananda died at Trivandrum, the capital of Kerala. For further information about Shri Atmananda Krishna Menon's life, see Philip Renard's, which constitutes part 3 of 4 entitled, 'I' is a Door.

Krishna Menon was born in 1883 in Peringara, near Tiruvalla in the state of Travancore ( now a part of today’s Kerala). After completing a study of law he became a Government Advocate and Inspector and District Superintendent of Police. He once said that in his early life he prayed at length to encounter a Sat-guru, a Teacher in the true sense of the word.

One day in 1919 he met such a teacher, one Swami Yogananda, who lived in Calcutta. 2 They met during the course of one night only.

Krishna Menon was particularly touched by the utmost humility of this teacher. He later stated, ‘This paralyzed my ego.’ Because of this encounter, he started a sAdhanA, which contained both bhakti- and raja-yoga as well as pure jnana. Later on having become a teacher himself, he would pass on to others only the jnana-aspect, and even criticise both the bhakti and raja yoga aspects.

Levy rephrased Atmananda’s typical approach in a somewhat more Western style; though he did retain Atmananda’s particular and unique way of dealing with logic. 5 I got to know of Atmananda while a pupil of the late Alexander Smit, a Dutchman who had been a pupil of Atmananda’s pupil Wolter Keers. Alexander gave me a copy of two small books by Atmananda, Atma-Darshan and Atma-Nirvriti.6 These books are Atmananda’s brief summary of his teachings; they have been written in his mother tongue Malayalam and translated into English by himself. For two years Alexander Smit thoroughly dealt with these books. I am grateful having had the privilege to attend to these meetings; owing to this opportunity I became familiar with Atmananda’s specific approach.
