Guest guest Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 Hi Valampuriowner, Classical means "Traditional" (there are 10 traditional swami orders in India pioneered by Shri Shri Shankaracharya). Initiated means a person who has received direct guru transmittion and subsequently initiated or endorsed as swami, archarya, yogacharya, karma sanyas or poona sanyas, etc. etc. Archarya means "Teacher'; Can also loosely be defined as being related to "pandit' or 'scholar'.
