SPIRITUAL & PROFESSIONAL BIO
He's spent years in devotion, studying in the ashram un-
der one of the world's greatest Indian vedic/tantric Mas-
ters, His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, who initiated
him, taught him, awakened him, and eventually sent him
out to share this profound knowledge.  As a spiritual

their real nature as the infinite, unbounded Self.  He's

   explore unbounded dynamism

   Expand outward - unfold your vast, masculine/femi-
   nine, God/Goddess nature

• Vedanta for Unity
   Integrate yoga & tantra - inner & outer - for wholeness
   of life (that wholeness which knows silence and
activi-
   ty to be its two 'shores')

ened seer - Maharishi Patanjali - in the Yoga Sutras to

tual relationship.
