ABOUT THE TEACHER
Raghav Kumar comes from a family lineage steeped in the Vedic tradition – a background which has guided him and shaped his spiritual pursuits. After a degree in electronics engineering from IIT Bombay and a stint in the corporate sector as an IT professional, he felt drawn to a full-time pursuit of meditation and also charitable service activities to underprivileged sections of Indian society through the Ramakrishna Mission.
In 2001, Raghav first traveled the Himalayas, to Uttarkashi & Rishikesh, where he studied Sanskrit, Vedanta and Yoga Philosophy under the guidance of Swami Dayananda Saraswati and also other respected spiritual teachers. Since 2011, he has been dividing his time between Thiruvannamalai in Southern India near the ashram of Sri Ramana Maharshi, the great sage of Advaita, and traveling to ashrams and centres teaching Yoga philosophy, Bhagavad Gita and other Vedanta texts in India and Bali.
