Born in Ambalapuzha, Kerala in India on 1963, his interests in the area of spiritual investigation and the mystic way of life began at an early age. He is a Post graduate in Chemistry with two years of research experience in Physical Organic Chemistry; but the interest in Indian Philosophy beckoned him to immerse himself as a full time practitioner in Indian culture and more specifically in Tantrashastra. He is initiated into Shrividya worship and is well versed in the Kerala, Kashmir and Bengal school of tantras. His expertise goes into the Shaiva, Vaishnava and Sakta Darshanas.

His knowledge and experience in Tantrashastra has earned him the title of SARVASADHAKACHARYA  and for his contribution to the preservation and propogation of the Indian culture he was awarded the title PAITHRKA RATNAM.

From the very beginning he is associated with IRA as our Patron. From him we received the valuable guidance and instructions for the formulation of Mudra Raiki and its unique initiation process.
