Before You Write

Four Doors. Pick the Right One.

Most of what people write to ask is already answered on one of these pages, usually in more detail than an email would give.

Shivapura sits in Shikaripura taluk, in Shivamogga district, Karnataka. Hanumadashrama is beside the Shri Varadanjaneya Swamy temple. Visitors are welcome, but write first — Guruji travels, and an unannounced visit may find the ashram empty.

Write to Us

Say What You Actually Want. We Will Say Yes or No.

Long messages are welcome. A clear one is better than a polite one, and a specific question gets a specific answer.

Sends on WhatsApp, read by a person at the Gurukula. No automated calls, no list you did not ask to join.

Your message is on its way.

We have opened WhatsApp with your message already written out. Press send in WhatsApp and it reaches the Gurukula straight away.

Someone will read it and write back. If it takes longer than a few days, it is because Guruji is travelling.

Honestly

Things We Are Asked For and Do Not Provide.

Saying this here saves you writing and saves us replying.

Medical diagnosis or treatment of any kind
Predictions, readings or astrological guidance
Certification of another teacher’s method
Guarantees that a given child will demonstrate
Franchise or licensing of the programmes
Interviews arranged at short notice

If you are unsure whether your question belongs here, write anyway. A short honest no is better than silence.

Elsewhere

Walk With the Gurukula, Wherever You Are.

Demonstrations, parent interviews and teachings are posted as they happen.
