He soothed many anxious Indians when he conducted the Mahavaruna Yajna during a drought. He also supports various tribal schools, School for the blind and Vedic Schools.

 

Swamiji’s spiritual discourses are well-attended all over the world. It is said that his strength lies in the fact that he can communicate with everyone, from a 9-year-old to a 90- year-old.
