Original Toronto Star caption: Teenage Yoga teacher Maharaj Ji is surrounded by adherents of the Divine Light Mission from Rochdale College during his first Canadian appearance at Massey Hall on Tuesday. Only 13 now, he began teaching at the age of 8. His father was also a guru and after his death enlightenment is believed to have passed to his son. People's spiritual hunger has led to a growing interest in Toronto in the practice of yoga.
