With gratitude and reverence, I acknowledge the teachers who have shaped my path and deepened my understanding of devotion, discernment, and embodied wisdom. Their presence, teachings, and example have opened ways of seeing, strengthened courage, and clarified my relationship to dharma and to life itself.

My primary teachers are my ancestors — of blood, spirit, land, and lineage — whose quiet guidance and continuity have taught me how to listen, how to remember, and how to learn directly from the Great Mother. Through them, devotion has revealed itself not as doctrine, but as lived relationship.

I also honor the spiritual, artistic, and energy teachers who have shared knowledge, practices, and perspectives at different moments along my journey. Each has contributed to my understanding in their own way, offering tools, questions, and reflections that continue to inform my work and life.

What has been received has been integrated with care and responsibility. I hold these teachings with respect, humility, and discernment, recognizing learning as an ongoing process shaped by experience, practice, and relationship with the living world.

Har Har Mahadev / Jai Maa

Inside the mind of the human being is divinity and that treasure when anybody seeks, then he or she becomes a bhakta and therefore to say that I’m going to find the Truth without any bhava or bhakti is absolute nonsense, it cannot be done. You can learn all the Upanishads, you can practise yoga … but if the heart has not melted, nothing can happen.  – Sri M
