This is Sri TKV Desikachar, the son of Krishnamarya, who is the grandfather of modern hatha yoga. Krishnamacharya taught Iyengar, Pattabhi Jois, and his son, among others. three major lineages of yoga emerged from Krishnamachaya's teachings.
Krishnamacharya walked from Mysore to Tibet in the 1920s to learn from his guru.
Desikachar is chanting for us in the vedic chant class that I took at the yoga school and the portrait of his father is behind him. taken in 2005.
