About

My life’s journey has unfolded across two different countries and over six decades of seeking, learning, and self-discovery. I was born and spent my first twelve years in Kerala, India, where the rhythms of family life, culture, and spirituality quietly shaped my early sense of wonder about the deeper meaning of existence. Those formative years planted the first seeds of a beautiful lifelong inward journey.

For more than fifty years I have lived in London, a city that became both my home and a place of transformation. Here I pursued my secondary, graduate, and postgraduate education, eventually building professional careers across engineering, information technology, and financial services. My career expanded into project and programme management, roles that allowed me to bring structure, logic and vision to complex undertakings while learning the value of collaboration with people and offering services of value.

Alongside my academic & professional paths, I have remained deeply committed to charity and community work. Yet the heart of my life has always been a continuing exploration of the inner landscape. Film, music, literature, and theatre have nourished my imagination, while science, philosophy ( both western & eastern) , sociology, and psychology have sharpened my understanding of the human condition. The teachings of Advaita Vedanta have been especially influential in my spiritual inquiry and journey . Martial arts, too, have offered a discipline of mind and body.

This website reflects & shares that ongoing journey—an evolving exploration of life, and self-understanding through the continuous study of non-dual wisdom.

Journeys, books, cinema, and friendships form the compass points of my life, renewing my understanding as I travel forward. Through encounters with names and forms, places, stories, and people, I revise my perception of mySelf again and again, accepting change as an essential expression of the unchanging.

Though I know the Wisdom-knowledge need not be placed on display, its reflections naturally emerge through conversations and shared reflections. What I offer the world are not conclusions, but impressions , moments, memories, and thoughts arising from the one Self-consciousness that animates us all. Each encounter becomes an invitation to dialogue, to resonance, to the quiet recognition that what seeks connection is none other than the Self ( Arivu ) itself.

In this telling, there is no separate “I” to display, only the eternal witnessing presence, shaping and reshaped by Maya’s ( illusory ) dance, yet ever untouched. Come, let us together revise ourselves together, and glimpse, through these passing impressions, the formless Truth that awaits behind every meeting.
