At present, he is spiritual advisor to the Jain Meditation International Center in New York City as well as to other meditation centers in America, Brazil, and India.
The Philosophy of Soul and Matter is a series of five talks given by Gurudev to students at the Jain Meditation International Center in New York. Its overall aim is to clarify the nature of soul and the nature of matter so that you can discriminate between these two and turn your knowledge into direct experience.
:
Each talk is a whole unto itself. At the same time, çach reveals a fresh approach to the subject. There is no attempt to present a philosophical treatise. Rather, Gurudev offers you a helping hand. According to the emphasis of each chapter, you discover clues as to who you are and who you are not. You realize the power of your soul to winnow out negative elements from inind. You come to understand your part in the law of karma and vibrations.
