Biography

Born in Leavittsburg, Ohio, Davis became interested in yoga at a young age. He read the book Autobiography of a Yogi when he was 18 and was attracted to kriya yoga and the author, Paramahansa Yogananda, who he "knew was his guru". After studying lessons from Yogananda's Self-Realization Fellowship and graduating from high school, he met Yogananda in 1949 and joined the monastic students at Yogananda's SRF. In 1951, he was ordained by Paramahansa Yogananda. In 1952 he was "appointed Minister of the SRF Center in Phoenix, Arizona", teaching kriya yoga.[5][4][6]

He left SRF and served in the US Army Medical Corps at Fort Riley from 1953 through 1955. Following his military duty he began his ministry as an independent spiritual teacher. In the 1960s he founded New Life Worldwide. He began publishing the Truth Journal magazine in 1967. In the early 1970s Edwin O'Neal of the Christian Spiritual Alliance invited Davis to head the organizations teaching ministry and they named this outreach "Center for Spiritual Awareness". In 1972 Davis moved from Florida to Lakemont, Georgia to develop the ministry and retreat facilities of Center for Spiritual Awareness. In 1976 Davis was elected chairman of CSA after O'Neal retired.

Davis taught in more than 100 cities in North America and in Japan, Brazil, Europe, West Africa, and India. Some of his books are published in 10 languages and in 11 countries. He continued to publish Truth Journal magazine and wrote monthly lessons for CSA members around the world.[2][4][6][7]

He died on March 27, 2019 at the age of 88.[8]
