Illustration from Om, as restored digitally by Richard Dvořák

Sabhapaty Swami was an Indian scholar from Madras who was acquainted with Helena Petrovna Blavatsky and Henry Steel Olcott. He was born in Madras in 1840. In 1880 he met the Founders in Lahore, and he moved back to Madras about the time the Adyar headquarters was established for the Theosophical Society. He published a number of scholarly works until the early 1890s, when he disappeared from the historical record. No death date has been determined. Colonel Olcott owned a copy of his book Om: A Treatise on Vedantic Raj Yoga Philosophy that is still on the shelves of the Adyar Library and Research Centre.
