VEDA’S STORY

Born under a bilba tree in the northeast Indian jungle, Vedaji grew up constantly asking questions trying to make sense of the world. In search of the answers to those questions, at the tender age of five he and his brother ran away from home, ultimately landing in a monastery where he lived through early adulthood. Given his inquisitive nature, at a young age he became known as the one everyone went to with their problems. He ultimately became the head of the monastery, remaining in that position for approximately 10 years. Eventually feeling a need to fulfill the greater purpose of his life, he moved to the United States approximately fifteen years ago to help raise consciousness in the western world.

What people are saying….

  • "Life changed Meeting Vedaji 6 years ago completely shifted my path in life. We serve the community together, play sports together, and do music, games, and yoga together. As my friend, he has challenged my beliefs about what is valuable in this world and how we believe we can achieve happiness. But as a teacher, his guidance has helped me take charge of my own spiritual practice, learning about how to see and go deep, to understand the universal struggles and journey of living beings on Earth, and how to nourish and uplift the spirit."

    -Balaram

  • "I attended the Body Mind, and Soul Retreat with Vedaji in Port Royal Pennsylvania last fall 2023. It was a simple retreat in the countryside with great food and very welcoming people. We had discussions about connecting and finding happiness, yoga classes, and great music and bonfires under the stars. But there was a magic I can’t really describe - people opening up in a way they maybe hadn’t before and a feeling of family trust that made me cry. It was so nourishing that I could feel at home, it was like I met my spiritual family. I’m really looking forward to going back and seeing many of the same faces this spring."

    -Josiah

  • "Vedaji invited me to the India Pilgramage in 2023 and it was truly life changing. It was so different from a family vacation - eat a lot, do a lot. We saw ancient holy places, heard stories 5,000 years old of the sages who lived there. Some days I was so amazed I wasn’t even hungry! Hopping from temple to temple, seeing mountains and rivers, I felt I was in prayer the whole time. And the conversations you have on a trip like that my god! Instead of just fun I was actually inspired and exploring about life, and that was far deeper and exciting than any vacation I’ve been on."
