        Places to explore

        Medellín, the vibrant capital of Antioquia, Colombia, surrounded by the Andes Mountains, is a city steeped in history and culture. Medellín has become a hub of science, technology, and innovation, while still retaining its rich cultural heritage. The city's resilient, warm and welcoming people make it a unique and enchanting destination.

         El Peñón de Guatapé, a 10-million-ton granite monolith once worshiped by the Tahamies, is accessed by an astounding staircase. It towers over the Antioquian landscape, offering panoramic vistas of the region's lush greenery and tranquil lakes. A testament to the enduring power of nature, Peñol Rock is a symbol of the area's cultural heritage.

        The Town of Guatapé is a kaleidoscope of color and culture, nestled in the heart of Antioquia. It is a place where every street corner is a canvas whose buildings are adorned with vibrant zócalos that tell tales of local life and traditions.  

        The islands of Guatapé Reservoir are a testament to the blend of human ingenuity and natural beauty. The lake's waters weave around lush hills, creating secluded islands that invite exploration and adventure. Each island, with its unique shape and size, contributes to the 

        intricate tapestry of the reservoir, offering a serene escape and p

        Vrindavan

         Life has guided me from being an orphan surviving the dense jungles of Northeastern India, to becoming a teacher of inner metamorphosis across 5 continents. I have learnt as much from mistakes and maladies, as I have from monks and mystics. My greatest takeaway: the cosmos is always rooting for you. I want to join you on your journey of self-realization. I have spent 40+ years studying and 27+ years sharing the tools needed for you to manifest your inner goodness.

        India has been my home for the last 15 years. I moved here from Medellín, Colombia, where I was born, in search of a higher life purpose. I started living in an ashram when I was 13 years old and spent 11 years learning the ancient wisdom of the Vedas and the healing power of Kirtan.

        I have been guiding groups of pilgrims from all around the world, taking them to the most breathtaking temples and cities of this holy land.
