My name is Made Agus Wirayasa. I was born in a simple and humble Balinese family. I have been interested in spirituality and humanity since I was very young. When I was studying in primary school I had a friend who inspired me much in solidarity and kindness. He was very simple and was struggling too much for his daily life because he came from a very poor family. Almost every day I donate a half of my pocket money to him and pick him up for going to school. This happened for years. I was very shock when he was not pass to higher grade because he was not focus in his lessons. He was so busy in helping his family and looking after his younger brother and sister. That is the scene of my childhood. There were still many such kind of experiences which brought me to the higher level of consciousness, to love all entities in any form.
In the family I was feeling suppressed that I could not express openly to any body and I tried to express it in wrong way such as drinking alcohol, drugs, smoking, and other kind of bad habits. Because of that, I was suffering from asthma. Then I realized that if I don’t stop those bad habits I will get more suffering. Then I started my journey inside. I started asking myself, “Who am I ?”, “Where do I come from ?”, “What is the aim of my life ?”, etc. So, from that moment on I searched for any inspirational books and teachers to find answers of my inner questions and to guide me to the path of righteousness. I began to learn meditation and joined some spiritual groups, but I was not satisfied. One day I went to a book store and found a book titled “Yoga Psychology” by Shrii Shrii Anandamurti, a great Master and the founder of Ananda Marga organization. I bought that book and read it entirely for few days. I was inspired a lot after reading “Yoga Psychology”. And then I went to the Ananda Marga Yoga Center in Bali. In that Yoga Center I met Acarya Sudhiirananda Avadhuta and took initiation (Tantric Dhiiksha) from him on 1st December 2000. I have been a vegetarian since 1993 in a natural way, following my inner inspiration. My understanding of this life becomes clearer and clearer after joining Ananda Marga. The practice of tantric meditation and yoga asanas make me more strong and balance physically, mentally, and spiritually. The practice of Ananda Marga Yoga and its social approach has changed my view and way of life. I become more confidence and now I am almost 100% free from asthma.
I hope and I am sure that everyone who practice yoga will get great benefit. Yoga is a path of happiness; rather yoga is a path of bliss. The practice of yoga intensely will bring the practitioner to the answer of the greatest question “Who am I?”

My name is I Gede Ratnaya. When I was a teenager I was very interested in spirituality. I always follow the religious activities with great enthusiasm, both in school and in the village or temple. My interest this brings me to the spiritual path of meditation. Then I searched for any inspirational books and teachers to find answers of my inner questions and to guide me to the path of righteousness. I began to learn meditation and joined some spiritual groups, but I was not satisfied. One day I went to a book store and found a book titled “Sixteen Points” by Shrii Shrii Anandamurti, a great Master and the founder of Ananda Marga organization. I bought that book and read it entirely for few days. I was inspired a lot after reading this book. And then I went to the Ananda Marga Yoga Center in Singaraja, Bali. In that Yoga Center I met Acarya Rupatiitananda Avadhuta and took initiation (Tantric Dhiiksha) from him on 23 July 1992. I have been a vegetarian since 1990 in a natural way, following my inner inspiration. The first trip I did that toward the Philippines and I go to India. and after from India then I started teaching yoga in Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand and Singapore. and finally to follow the call of conscience then I return to my homeland in Bali and one with the people of Bali in a mission that is spreading yoga, universal love.

I was so weak physically since my childhood. When I began my study in University, I found myself become weaker not only physically but also in the mental strata. I was almost not interested in anything and my confidence was decreased.  I was almost hopeless and frustrated. I was so inferior. One day a friend of mine came to know my condition and he suggested me to practice Yoga and Meditation although he himself did not practice. He gave me the address of Ananda Marga Yoga Center (Ashram). I was very happy to hear his suggestion and the following day I came to that address. The first day I attended the Ananda Marga collective meditation, I do not understand anything and do not know any body.  It is also the first time I saw an Indian Yoga Monk (Sanyasi) with his attractive cloth (orange uniform). The name of that Yogi was Acarya Iishvarakrsnananda Avadhuta.
I got initiation of Tantric Meditation from Acarya Iishvarakrsnananda Avadhuta in September 6, 1987.  Since that day, Yoga, Meditation, and Vegetarian become my life style and I feel myself almost completely changed. My physical, mental, and spiritual wellness improves drastically. Then Acarya Iishvarakrsnananda Avadhuta gave me a new name “ANANDADEVA”.
In 1992 I dedicated myself as an assistant of the Acaryas to teach Yoga Asanas for public. I was also very closed with Acarya Rupatiitananda Avadhuta and very often accompanied him moving around Bali Island for guiding people to the path of Yoga and Meditation (path of bliss). I gave Yoga Classes in our ashram, schools, and some villages in Bali and North Sulawesi.
In the end of the year 2005 I got a chance to visit India. I visited some Ananda Marga Ashrams in New Delhi, Varanasi, Chandigarh, Ananda Nagar, Jamalpur, Patna, and Calcutta. I also visited some other historical and interesting places such as Taj Mahal, Lalkila, Rsikesh, Haridwar, Puranakila, Lotus Temple, Laksmi Narayan Temple.
India Gate, etc.
I got much more inspiration after visiting India. I belief 100% whoever practice Yoga Asanas and Meditation will get much benefit physically, mentally, and spiritually. But I do not recommend anybody to learn Yoga and Meditation merely from the book without guidance from experienced instructor.
Books are only references.
