Testimonials

Harsha blends the depth of ancient spiritual wisdom with a clear, modern perspective. His teachings remain rooted in authentic scriptures, while being relevant to today’s seekers.

He began his career as a software engineer, but then arrived a turning point in his mid-twenties where in he came across a spiritual book that set him on a path of intense spiritual pursuit.

He lived the life of a wandering seeker in the Himalayas, and devoted himself to deep spiritual practices.

Later, he studied original Sanskrit scriptures at a traditional monastery—choosing to live independently while learning from within the tradition.

This combination of personal experience and scriptural immersion helped him uncover the essence of spiritual enlightenment—that later shaped his teaching style rooted in authenticity and clarity.

Today, Harsha teaches various systems of spiritual philosophy in a precise, evidence-based manner. He is especially known for offering clear metaphysical insights into the nature of soul, the principles of karma, and the deeper fabric of existence—guiding seekers with structured understanding on their path to liberation.

His lectures have been well-received by his regular students across various countries and cultures.

He has traveled to Brazil, Russia, Nepal, and major cities across India to deliver discourses on spirituality and self-realization.

Harsha has also authored a book titled Ashtavakra Gita: The Ultimate Solace – Third Edition, a significant contemporary work in spiritual literature considered as a modern-day masterpiece on spirituality.

Alisha Netalkar is an Integrative Yoga Therapist and Meditation Facilitator based in Goa, India. Her approach is grounded, integrates the body and mind equally, and is highly individualistic, considering each person's unique traits and personality.

Besides being a certified Yoga Alliance Hatha Yoga teacher from the Sivananda (Swami Vishnudevananda) lineage, she has been extensively mentored in the Bihar School of Yoga tradition, has undergone over 2 years of study in yoga philosophy, and is currently pursuing an 800-hr Yoga Therapy certification from the IAYT-accredited Svastha Yoga & Ayurveda (The Mohan Family, from the Krishnamacharya lineage). Alisha believes one's yoga practice is truly complete when the body, breath, senses, mind and idea of the Self are integrated.
