World Peace - Vethathiri Maharishi

In today mechanical life we are missing so many things, the most important one for our living life "Peace" here i want to speak about my Guruji Vethathiri Maharishi who was born on 14th August 1911 in a poor weaver's family at Guduvancheri which is 30 km south from Chennai, as their eighth child. His father was Varathappa Mudaliar. Though he had very little formal schooling, in his later life he became a qualified physician in Ayurveda, Siddha, and Homoeopathy.

After spending several years in various minor employments, he always found time to pursue his deep desire to achieve self-realization and realization of Truth. Several years of intense meditation and introspection brought him full enlightenment at the age of thirty five. At the age of fifty he closed all his commercial ventures and devoted himself solely to spiritual service so as to guide sincere spiritual aspirants by transmitting and sharing with them his experiences and revelations of Truth and World peace.
