Swamiji’s interpretation of Bhagavadgita Upanishads and other spiritual texts coming from his experiential depth and mastery of self realization inspires seekers with the liberating touch of the transcendental knowledge.

Dedicating his entire life for the welfare of the world for over 50 years he has been relentlessly disseminating spiritual wisdom of Vedanta with rare clarity practicality and openness to seekers all over the world.
