At the beginning of Dhalsim’s Character Prologue in Street Fighter V, Rashid identifies him as, “One of the seven Yoga Masters in the world you gotta meet at least once,” noting that’s “what the net calls him, anyway.” In the latest set of CFN Portal profiles from the Shadaloo Activity Report, as told by Shadaloo soldier Private Nakagawa, we have full details on the other six Yoga Masters–so if you’ve curious about them, you will have to wonder no longer!
Private Nakagawa: Here’s one of the Seven Masters of Yoga you have to meet at least once, made famous by that site. On what basis of criteria did they choose those Seven Masters?

About 30 years ago, in the village where a young Jagjit was living, a disastrous flood occurred, leaving the villagers stymied and in big trouble. It seems he teleported over 50 people at one time to their safety, and thats’ how his legend started. It’s said his spiritual powers surpass even those of Dhalsim. [His name comes from Jagjit Singh, an Indian singer who is widely known in Japan.]
Private Nakagawa: Of course we’re going to do all of them. Another one of the Seven Yoga Masters you have to meet at least once. A Master of “wisdom,” with a vast amount of knowledge.

Private Nakagawa: A Master living in Uttar Pradesh, who specializes in unification with nature. He once meditated silently for 5 years. He helps other people’s lives with his extensive knowledge, teaching it. But if you pose a question to him, or consult with him about something, he goes into a deep meditation, and for at least one month he won’t respond. In the meantime, the vast majority of your problems would have been resolved by themselves.
Private Nakagawa: And we continue. A Master! One of the Seven Yoga Masters you have to meet at least once, a strong Master of the force of “power.”

Private Nakagawa: A Yoga Master living in Kamataka. Before starting to learn Yoga, he was a Cricket player. He was an excellent player, but in a game against a rival team, he injured his neck. During his subsequent depression, someone suggested that he try Yoga, and in a very short time he completely devoted himself to it. He knows techniques to quickly improve the strength of his neck. He’s famous for the exciting trick of lifting up four gigantic elephants with his legs. Since becoming famous, he has developed a noticeable haughtiness and generally arrogant attitude. The “G” in his name stands for “Great.”

She possesses a soft, flexible, body, which has helped her to master various techniques and positions. Her power of expression is rich, so she’s able to use all of her body parts in a useful and expressive way, and has numerous disciples all around the world. Her instructional Yoga DVD caused an explosive boom. She’s a celebrity, and travels using her private jet. [Sheila is an Indian actress, and also an Indian restaurant in Ōsaka.]

Private Nakagawa: A Master who can inflate himself freely. He fills his body with ki and swells up like a balloon. He’s a Master of “Yoga Expansion,” with which he can absorb any enemy attack without taking damage. A Hyper Armor that renders anything ineffective. In this state, he can roll and squash his foe with the “Yoga Iron Ball,” a dangerous technique. Since his body weight increases as well, he cannot use it indoors. Surprisingly, no one wants to be his disciple. By the way, gulab jamun is the name of a delicious dessert!
Private Nakagawa: And finally, the last Master. One of the Seven Yoga Masters you have to meet at least once. It seems he was chosen only recently, as before him there were only 6 Great Masters.

Judging from his height and weight, he’s a young boy of approximately 4 years. He can’t speak with words, but can transmit his thoughts using means of telepathy. Even the most ferocious of animals behave themselves quietly in front of him. It isn’t known where he came from, but he’s been a Yoga Master from his birth.
Private Nakagawa: And we’ve finally presented all of the Yoga Masters. Together with Dhalsim they’re 7, each one with their own personality…
