About our leader, Holly: I have lived with sadhus and holy men in India and Nepal for over 5 years. I was taught to recite the Bhagavad Gita in the traditional method by a Brahman priest. My knowledge of Sanskrit language and Hindu philosophy has expanded over the years. I hope to share some of what I have learned with any soul who is interested!
