Today\\u2019s guest is Nirmala. After a lifetime of spiritual seeking, Nirmala met his teacher,\\xa0Neelam, a devotee of\\xa0H.W.L. Poonja (Papaji). She convinced him that seeking wasn\'t necessary; and after experiencing a profound\\xa0spiritual awakening\\xa0in India, he began offering satsang and Non-dual Spiritual Mentoring with Neelam\'s blessing.

This tradition of spiritual wisdom has been most profoundly disseminated by Ramana Maharshi, a revered Indian saint, who was Papaji\'s teacher. Nirmala\'s perspective was also profoundly expanded by his friend and teacher\\xa0Adyashanti.

Nirmala offers satsang in gratitude for the love and grace that flow through his teachers, Neelam and Adyashanti, and for the Truth brought to this world by Ramana Maharshi and H.W.L. Poonja. Advaita satsang is offered as a celebration of the possibility, in every moment, of recognizing the truth of who we are. Nirmala offers a unique vision and a gentle, compassionate approach, which adds to this rich tradition of inquiry into the truth of Being.
