Swami: A Monthly Magazine of Exotic Mysteries was a monthly Magic Periodical from Sam Dalal in Calcutta, India.
It ran for a total of 36 issues, from January of 1972 until December of 1974.
Each issue was a four-page sheet of tricks, with no editorials. Exotic Eastern magic or stunts ran under a column titled "Yoga Maya".
Swami ran, in part, under the patronage of K.C. Batra. When Batra became disassociated with the magazine, Dalal began a new journal of the same nature under a new name, Mantra (till 1975).
