About Me

I come from Coimbatore, South India. I am an attorney, aged 45. I am a devotee of Ramana Maharshi and a follower of Eckhart Tolle as well. I am also into the conventional rituals (mantras, slokas ) followed in India as well as kriya practice. I also generally do " Who am I" meditation as told by Ramana Maharshi in his books as there are no organized classes for the same in India including Ramanasramam, Tiruvannamalai. So, I am doing it to the best of my abilities. I come from that sect of Hindus that follow non-duality (Advaita) as a philosophy. I am pretty ok in learning mantras through the rote method. As such I am lucky to recite Rudram, Chamakam (Lord Shiva), Vishnu Sahasranamam (Lord Vishnu), Hanuman Chalisa (Lord Hanuman) besides quite a few sanskrit slokas and tamil (our local language) slokas. Besides, I do as many Gayatri mantras as I can.
