“The most valuable direct guidance and training received from Bhagawan as our Revered Founder Chancellor, and the insightful learnings gained from my 12-year-long stay in the Sri Sathya Sai System of Integral Education as a student, scholar and teacher, have played a vital role in creating a very strong and holistic foundation to my life. My approach to research, writing, teaching, and indeed all professional endeavours is based on these twin pillars.”
