Sri Tathāta – A Guiding Light of Spiritual Awakening
Sri Tathāta is a revered spiritual luminary of our times, guiding countless seekers on the path of self-realization and inner transformation. Born in 1942 in the serene village of Vandithavalam, Palakkad (Kerala), his life has been one of deep spiritual purpose and divine alignment.
From early childhood, marked by the loss of his mother, Sri Tathāta was drawn toward renunciation and spiritual truth. Leaving home as a teenager, he embarked on a journey across sacred lands, ultimately receiving divine guidance at the Chidambaram Temple in Tamil Nadu. Returning to his native village, he undertook 17 years of intense tapasya beneath a sacred Peepal tree, near a Devi temple living in solitude and communion with the divine.
