Prenatal Yoga edit
This paragraph seems out-of-place: "Baba Hari Dass agreed to mentor his pregnant student Jeannine Parvati through a course of prenatal Yoga, and supported her desire to continue practicing asanas, despite traditional male yogic proscriptions against it. From this, the first book in the Western world on the subject, Prenatal Yoga & Natural Childbirth was published in 1974."
This man has many followers, engaged in many projects, who are not mentioned. The above paragraph seems to be an attempt to promote this individual's work by piggybacking on the Baba Hari Dass article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.198.151.51 (talk) 03:56, 11 March 2011 (UTC)
- I understand your observation, but Ms. Baker had a large, passionate following, which exists today, and its unlikely they would feel the need to overly promote her, as that sort of goes against her (and his) whole philosophy. for those of us somewhat familiar with her, this story is very important to know,particularly as the traditions Hari Dass represents generally are highly conservative and thus his decision is somewhat revolutionary. I would love to see other stories of students of Hari Dass added, but i don't know any.(mercurywoodrose)76.234.122.170 (talk) 03:43, 20 June 2011 (UTC)

Changes from 106.201.48.91 (8 Sep 2017) edit
"Not to confuse with Swami Haridas who was a spiritual poet and classical musician of Bhakti movement era. Also, there was another Haridas in 17th century. Baba Haridas (1594 - 1691 AD) (बाबा हरिदास) was a famous saint of (Dagar) clan from Delhi whose temple exists in Jharoda Kalan village, in Najafgarh block of Delhi." - inappropriate placement in the section of the first paragraph; also, similar names "Haridass" are in different historical epoch and don't seem to be relevant to Baba Hari Dass article.
After further consideration I'll include this info in historical note. Thanks. Pradeepwb 15:33, 19 September 2017 (UTC)

Edits from 106.207.145.202 edit
(Aug 21, 2020) Several edits from 106.207.145.202 user (location: Rajasthan, India) were reversed due to adversarial and subjective interpretation of the subject. If doubt occurs, an appropriate source of reference needs to be quoted. Personal opinion from one source only is not sufficient. Pradeepwb (talk) 18:31, 21 August 2020 (UTC)Pradeepwb
Personal, family name, etc. edit
It seems there's confusion as to personal naming. This article is about Baba Hari Dass. Birth name: Hari Datt Karnatak, Karnatak is the last name, not individually specific, so it is not an adequate descriptor. Hari Datt was changed to Hari Dass, so he was called by locals as Haridas. Dada Mukerjee, an autor of several books, and a close close disciple of Neem Karoli Baba, who knew Baba Hari Dass, mentioned him in several places and calls him Haridas. So this can be used here as well. (ref. The Near and The Dear). Pradeepwb
