Yogi Ramacharaka is a pseudonym associated with William Walker Atkinson (1862-1932), a prolific writer and publisher connected with the New Thought movement in the United States. Under this name, Atkinson produced a series of works introducing elements of Hindu philosophy and yogic practice to Western audiences in the early twentieth century. His writings reflect a synthesis of traditional concepts and contemporary metaphysical thought, contributing significantly to the early popularisation of yoga and related disciplines outside India.
