Ganesh started questioning the reality of life and the world very early in life. He went through what many people do--get a good education (IIT, Delhi, Topper, Iran Centre for Management Studies, Tehran, an affiliate of the Harvard University Business School, MBA, with Distinction), tasted material success, went through a phase of being known and recognised, travelled the world and observed people, customs and human interrelationships. However, fundamental questions about life and its reality kept surfacing repeatedly. For what ultimate purpose does one take any action? Sensing that all the trappings of success in the world did not satisfy what he was (and every human being seemed to be) striving for, he started making serious enquiries.Using the excellent training he had received from formal education as well as what he learnt from his observations of life, he tried to find the answers. He asked many famous and erudite people, read what great thinkers had to say about the subject matter, discussed with others who too were seeking answers; all of which drove to him turn to Indian scriptures, sastra. He followed it up until he reached a traditional guru who could unfold the secrets of the self, using the words of the sastra. He spent three and a half years living with and learning from his guru, Poojya Swami Dayananda Saraswati at a gurukulam (a traditional place of learning where students live with the guru) in Anaikatti in Southern India.Ganesh now lives a life of study and teaching, and helping anyone who approaches him with a problem, or with a commitment to learn.
