  • 1920s

Answer

Ramana Maharshi's teachings gained popularity in the West during the 1930s. This was largely due to the efforts of Paul Brunton, an English writer who visited Ramana in 1931 and published several books about him. Brunton's writings introduced Ramana's teachings to a wider audience, and his ashram in Tiruvannamalai, India, began to attract Western visitors.
