ABOUT KUMARÉ
Sri Kumaré is a revered Yoga Master, often known to
his contemporaries as Adarsha or "The Mirror." He is the current
torchbearer of the Kumaré lineage and a respected, charismatic
teacher of Yogic Science. Sri Kumaré is known for his youthful
energy, transformative philosophy, and divine blessing.
Early life
Sri Kumaré was born into a merchant class family whose
ancestors can be traced directly to the Indo-Aryan Civilization of
Mohenjo-daro and Harrappa. From an early age he had mastered the Sanskrit
hymns of the Vedas. By ten years old, he was a regular pujari on
holidays and Hindu festivals. Disenchanted by the imposing culture of
Western imperialism, angered by the ills of the caste system, and
blind Hindu faith, he left his hometown and spent over a decade
studying Yogic Science with masters of the Hindu, Buddhist, Sikh, and
other esoteric traditions. Sri Kumaré's studies took him to
the outskirts of India - Kashmir, the North Western Frontier Province,
the mountains of Nepal and Tibet, and the dharamsalas of Burma.
Kumaré lineage
The Shramanic tradition of the
Kumaré, meaning "The Divine Child", is an ever-evolving,
holistic approach to spiritual living - embracing asana, pranayama,
kriyas, guided meditation, proper diet, non-dualistic philosophy, and
the adarsha method. The Kumaré tradition's main objective is
to achieve the personal transformation of individuals through "Action -- not just
theory." After many years of dedicated study and practice of
Kumaré's tradition, the lineage was passed on and he was
'reborn' through what can be called a Udgathana or 'Unveiling'. Now a
Guru to many himself, Sri Kumaré is our link to this esoteric
tradition of spiritual practice.
Sri Kumaré, The Teacher
Sri Kumaré, now on Yatra, has recently begun spreading his
wisdom and teaching throughout India and beyond. Sri Kumaré is
known for his intense humility, down-to-earth approach, devotion to
his students, humor, and his divine blessing. Kumaré teaches
any and all people how to find their Adarsha Guru, the ideal guru
(reflected) within themselves. By teaching one person at a time,
Kumaré is determined to create a noble society of socially
conscious yogis, where "Enlightenment is only the beginning to living
a life in total victory (Vaibhavopetha Jeevanam)!"
Coming to the West
He is currently in India celebrating, meditating, and blessing the
millions at the Kumbh Mela 2010. In the coming weeks, Kumaré is
coming to America. (Many thanks our devoted beneficiaries.) He is
determined to inspire the American students to change their own lives
and society in order to create positive global change. We encourage
all spiritual seekers and social activists to be open to the profound
teachings of this living master.
