This article in its current form appears to not to pass WP:BASIC. Analyzing the references Any number of non-notable people have written books, have written articles in scholarly journals, are yogis, and so on. Did I get this wrong? As always, please do prove me wrong about this. --Shirt58 (talk) 12:13, 18 May 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete - Non-notable for reasons given by nom. JMHamo (talk) 15:08, 27 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - Not a notable yogi. I was on the fence before because it made it seem he was bringing yoga to Hong Kong, but that is not the case. There are many yogi's who are also not of note, who have published in small publications. Allaboutjane8181 (talk) 02:25, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as there's nothing at all convincing for solid independent notability, current information and sources are not at all convincing. SwisterTwister   talk  07:09, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
