Sannidhi Samvadam

Sannidhi Samvadam: Conversations with an Enlightened Master, Shree Mata Swadhaa Devi Since time immemorial, sages, through a lineage, continue to share the supreme knowledge that uncovers the true nature of man experientially. This supreme knowledge is called SelfKnowledge or Brahmavidya that emphatically resolves the nature of the world and the role of individuals and instructs on the Supreme Being called atman or Brahman. The sages or Gurus, living anonymously and liberated while alive, attract a few bees who are ready to devote their time and energy to contemplation and sadhana.

The author through multiple conversations with his GuruMa: Shree Mata Swadhaa Devi, discusses practical difficulties in Sadhana, the role of effort and surrender, receives spiritual instructions and personally experiences divine interventions in multiple settings. These conversations, as three Jnanis (Realized Beings) told the author, are part of “Divine Sankalpa” or Divine Will. The book covers Self-Knowledge (Jnana), Bhakti, atma vichara and GuruMa’s own rich divine experiences. We hope Sadhaks and Mumukshus will find enough pointers in their pursuit of Self/Truth/God.

About the author:

Ramanathan T. (Swadhaa Sei), based out of Bengaluru, renounced his career and worldly interests in quest of Self/Truth/Atman. In his early 30s, Swadhaa Sei transformed from a left-wing proponent to Advaita and Jnana Marga through the teachings of Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi. In obedience to a divine instruction, Swadhaa Sei quit corporate career in mid-40s. Here he writes about the journey, meetings with Mahatmas, Enlightened Beings and how finally reached the feet of his Guru, Shree

Mata Swadhaa Devi. His second book ‘His Master’s Voice: Recollections from Professor Nagaraj R. Padaki’ takes the reader through Vedantic teachings, spiritual pointers and mystical experiences.
