About
I have been involved with Vedic Studies for the last 46 years. I was initiated as a Teacher of Transcendental Meditation in 1972 by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and taught TM for many years, including many lectures to both the US Army and the Strategic Air Command.
Maharishi told me to get a degree in Vedic Studies and in the 1970’s I got as good as I he could find in the United States at the time by studying with Raimundo Pannikar, a well known Vedic scholar at UCSB. During that time I studied Sanskrit for 4 years. I received a scholarship to study with Buckminster Fuller in 1976 and received his BA in Religious Studies with honor, speciailizing in Hinduism and Buddhism from UCSB in 1978.
