Haunted by questions of death since childhood and driven by love for Bharath, I was led by grace to two Gurus — one through discipline, the other through fire. From Hatha Yoga to Dasa Mahavidya Suddhopasana, my journey transformed in the presence of Sri Phani Madhava Guruji. In Tapovanam’s silence, the mind itself dissolved. This is a seeker’s path — not of comfort, but of surrender. All I am, I offer at the feet of my Guru and Mother Bharath.

This is the heartfelt spiritual journey of D.V.L.N. Narsimha Murthy — a seeker who, after decades of devoted search and deep personal suffering, finally found his living Guru, Sri Surya Phani Madhav Sharma Garu. Through tragedy, illness, and longing, his unwavering prayer to the Divine Mother was answered. A powerful testimony to the grace that leads one to their true Guru, and the transformation that follows when the heart finally surrenders at the feet of Light.

I was born in a simple Dalit family that knew neither temple nor prayer. Yet through the compassion of Śrī Surya Phani Madhav Guruji, I found myself walking the sacred Rishi Path of Śrī Ganapati Muni. Guruji never once asked my caste — He only looked at my saṁskāra. Under His guidance, I learned that true spirituality knows no boundaries of birth or status. It is the journey of reformation, of awakening to the indwelling Divine.

A heartfelt self-reflection on spiritual transformation — how a fateful headache became a divine turning point leading Jyoti Modekurti from pain to the grace of Śrī Phani Madhav Guruji and the luminous teachings of Kavyakantha Vasistha Ganapati Muni. This inspiring narrative reveals how suffering can awaken the soul, how the Guru’s gaze heals, and how the wisdom of the Muni opens the path of self-realization and devotion.
