I’m always grateful to receive a testimonial from someone who has benefited from what I share. Writing a testimonial is not only a wonderful way to express thanks, but it is an opportunity to reflect on the impact the teachings have made. It’s also nice for me to see how what I share has positively affected others, and to share that with you too.
I have been working in 1 to 1 sessions with people on and off over the last few years. As you can see, I’ve been fortunate to work with people from around the world, and many have found that in just a few sessions they are able to find great clarity where perhaps before there was varying degrees of confusion.
If you have been positively impacted by what I share and would like to write a testimonial yourself or if you want to arrange a 1 to 1 session with me, then please use the contact link above to contact me. Here are some of the testimonials I have received thus far:
Tom’s teaching is unique. His guidance is a non-dual lighthouse emitting a bright light-beam across life’s turbulent expanse to steer the seeker from crashing on the rocks of ignorance, misunderstanding and delusion, to reach the shore of Timeless Being.
His gift is discerning where the individual seeker is at and what is required specifically for that ‘individual’ to support them in their thirst for freedom from suffering. His maturity, as a guide, is evident in how he can appreciate the wisdom teachings, the ‘treasure in the field’, in traditions not generally associated with non-duality.
This breadth of understanding sets him apart from the smorgasbord of spiritual snake-oil merchants, peddlars, ‘evangelical’ non-dual purists and genuine teachers which, in practical terms, allows a welcoming and genuine spirit of inclusivity for anyone attending his satsangs.

I find Tom’s teachings clearer, simpler, and less encumbered by BS than just about anyone out there whom I have encountered. I’ve had teachers from Alan Watts to Adi Da, to Andrew Cohen, and others. Tom has the least ‘baggage’ I think…
Your words always affect me like a clear, clean breath of fresh air in the midst of what is often a lot of misconception and gobbledygook about what there is to ‘attain’ and all the rest of it.
Carl, USA
I came across Tom and his teachings during a very challenging period in my life and he helped me so fundamentally that I find it hard to express in words adequately. In one-to-one sessions, he helped me to understand the issues I was having, without judgment, and taught me how to do this for myself. He was able to shine a light on the dysfunction of my mind in such a way that allowed me to explore the causes on a deep level and with compassion for myself. Through this practice, my situation turned around from being one of confusion and suffering to profound enjoyment of the process of freeing myself from these issues.
In Tom’s satsang meetings, I often experience feelings of deep peace. He responds to each person with a unique teaching that somehow seems to benefit the whole group. The after-satsang informal group sessions have brought further healing in the form of being able to share this spiritual journey with others.
Through Tom, I am learning the real meaning of truth, love and surrender and am now firmly on the path of Self-enquiry. I have come to share his love for Ramana Maharshi, whose teachings he makes more accessible for me. I believe that Tom is a jnani, one who lives in the direct experience of Reality. He teaches us how to endeavour towards liberation whilst still functioning effectively in the world. Deepest gratitude to you Tom.
Sarah, UK
I had struggled with depression and anxiety for 30 years of my life. Then I was introduced to spiritual practices and they really helped to improve my life and even cured my depression. I still struggled with anxiety though and wanted to deepen my practice and progress along the Buddhist path. After several years though, it became apparent that I was no longer making progress and I started feeling like spiritual practices were a waste of time. In addition, I started struggling with a health condition that caused me a lot of pain and discomfort and my meditation practice was making it worse.
Then I found Tom. In our first meeting together he pointed out what I had been doing wrong in my practices and set me back on the path in the right direction. Tom is the real thing! In just a few meetings with him I have made more progress than I could have imagined. My anxiety is nearly gone and the pain from my health condition has improved. I am eternally grateful for his kindness, insight, wisdom, vast knowledge, and guidance. Without him I would still be lost.
Michael, USA
I don’t understand how it works, but Tom’s guidance gives me added strength and energy to do Self-enquiry, to study and to meditate. I feel I am not alone on this path. The recommended readings, the satsangs, and the occasional 1-1 meetings are all so trustworthy.
Instead of confronting me with my ‘short-comings’ as a seeker I feel free, validated and encouraged to follow my path. The path is full of paradoxes, that Tom allows for, enhancing the sense of freedom and trust that I have. I have never felt that I am being pushed into a mould that fits his vision. On the contrary, he doesn’t fill in the blanks that I have but gives me pointers so that I can discover things in my own experience. He doesn’t give me direct advice so much as that he seems to create a context in which I blossom as a seeker of spiritual truth. Thank you so much for all your help and guidance, love,
Hesther, Portugal
Through Tom I’ve found a connection with Sri Ramana Maharshi. That’s made all the difference. It feels like there’s guidance that comes from beyond my own mind. I feel that my own mind can’t be trusted, that following the deeper intuition of the heart is the only way forward. That can only be done by quietening the mind and quietening the mind can only be done by self-inquiry.
This has been transformative.
Miracles happen regularly and they are not miracles, but just the way it is. God is speaking directly to me through the heart and I have a sense of what direction to go in, what direction not to go in. It’s like having an inner compass. My questions and doubts are answered internally (though ‘internal’ and ‘external’ don’t make sense). I realise I don’t have any worries. I’m reading scripture in a way I never have before and I’m reading it because I want to, not because I ought to. There’s a pull towards it, not a push. The scripture seems to have some direct line to the teacher, the teacher within. It settles the mind.
Tom taught me through silence, through words, through laughter, through transmission (for want of a better word) that I’m OK. He taught me to have faith, to trust that intuition, to put down the load I’ve been carrying and allow Bhagavan (the Beloved) to carry it for me. It’s been a huge release. My mind whirls sometimes at the immensity of it and then there’s silence. I can sit in silence and look at a garden. That’s the best thing. It’s a gift.
Anne, Scotland
Tom speaks only from love. My heart can feel this and it is this resonance that has made our 1:1 sessions so powerful. Through Tom, this love gently reveals the lies of the ego. There is no judgement, just the opportunity to let go and rest in truth; in peace. This pure and unconditional love cuts through the darkness of past traumas, unconscious beliefs and fears. I came to Tom not being able to trust love and through a journey of 6 sessions (which went in many different directions and covered many different aspects of my life) I have experienced the most profound healing. The mind still has the capacity to take me out and get lost in the drama of illusion, but now I am always able to return to love and find peace. Instead of not trusting love, I now know with every fibre of my being that love is the ONLY thing I can trust. I feel so incredibly blessed to have met and worked with this amazing Being called Tom.
Claire, Canada
In my spiritual journey, after 7 years of dabbling with Vedanta on and off, the best thing that happened was I came across Bhagavaan Ramana’s teachings. Then going through Bhagvaan’s literature myself for a few months, the best thing that happened was coming across Tom. Like Bhagvaan’s teachings represent the best of Advaita Vedanta recast in a much more practical and direct manner, Tom takes the finest of Bhagvaan’s literature and focuses on the most essential points which helps drive them through our thick layer of mental conditionings to effect faster spiritual progress. He avoids going into lengthy philosophical discussions about Bhagvaan’s verses which might satisfy a scholar but might make no dent in Maya’s stronghold on our minds.
He meets us at whichever stage we are in our spiritual journey rather than speaking from a high podium. He will work on our personality issues too (in 1:1s) very effectively which helps free up the mental energy to focus on our sadhana.
His Satsangs have a powerful effect of calming the mind and driving home the simple but profound teachings of “turning within” and surrendering to Bhagvaan. After his satsangs, we walk away with increased clarity about the path, renewed confidence in our ability to abide as the Self and that liberation is possible in this very life.
I love Tom’s guided meditations Youtube videos (my favorite:Turn Within & Be Still) with carefully chosen verses from Guru Vachaka Kovai representing Bhagavan’s core teachings. The conviction with which Tom reads them significantly enhances the chances that the verses might trigger a real intuition in you; all the chosen verses packed with power hence even if a single verse sticks with you, it will go a long way in your spiritual journey.
I strongly recommend folks to go through “Introductory articles” on tomdas.com and Michael Langford books in his recommended reading list – they will make a profound impact on you. Team of Bhagvaan & Tom has really made the path to liberation accessible for me and increased my conviction in it – I will always remain grateful to them.
Sumit, USA
I started with Tom’s Satsang after coming across his website during an online search. At the time, I had no clue that I would be attending his Satsang regularly. I previously read a few books about Sri Ramana Maharshi but I think I was seeking a deeper understanding of the teachings.
Tom’s Satsang introduced me to Silence and connection to our inner peace. I will say it’s the most wonderful teaching I have ever received. We often find answers to our questions just by being present in the Satsang. I have read this before I am Self. But earlier it was just a statement. I have now started to feel more confident and have faith in myself.
The way he explains is simple and clear. His blogs are condensed and wonderful. I have always found a blog that deepens my understanding. In our one-to-one meetings, I have evolved and he has been very kind and patient to help me come to my conclusions. I am slowly finding answers to all my questions and it feels all correct. Thank you. Tom, I am always grateful for your insights, clarifications and our discussions.
Neha, USA
I found Tom via his online meetings at a time in my search that a lot of concepts and beliefs about life had already fallen away – but seeking was still happening on a subtle level and there were still doubts about whether what I’d seen was it and a vague feeling that there must be something more and I was still definitely suffering.
In just two or three meetings and also a one to one with Tom the remaining doubts seem to have been cleared up – I can say now that the intense seeking together with the exhaustion of it seems to be over.
I found Tom very refreshingly ordinary and that dispelled the beliefs that this was something special to attain and his receptivity to what was being asked allowed responses to questions amazingly clear and helpful – there were two or three very ordinary but profound realisations for me about beliefs that were blocking ease and freedom. Words really don’t describe this as it now seems just very natural and known already. I am extremely grateful for his input – and he is a genuinely nice guy.
Gabrielle, UK
I’ve seen many teachers on the path of seeking. All wonderful and they all had a piece of the puzzle but they all came from their ‘thing’ – their own perspective on the teaching. They answer the seeker from their point of view.
Tom is the only one I’ve seen who doesn’t come from his point of view, he always comes directly from the silence and meets the seeker exactly where they’re at. If they need a practice, he has it, if they already have one but are stuck he knows how to move them, if they’re just beginning he knows how to guide them…it’s wonderful to see. His meetings have truly been a gift to me.
Danny, UK
Tom is the only living Guru that I have met who speaks directly and one pointedly to the path and method of Sri Ramana. I came across Tom’s teachings while seeking some answers to questions about Sri Ramana’s methods applied to a householder’s life. After only a few 1 on 1 sessions I had strong clarity on how to deal with the obstacles I was running into. And I felt this sense of self confidence or confidence in my SELF that was being overlooked in the past. Through his loving acceptance of wherever I was, Tom kept bringing me back to the true Guru that is inside of me. The SELF. Along the way he also reminded me to honor my feelings and to drop self-judgment – another way of reinforcing my true self.
I also appreciated that Tom pointed me to the most relevant and effective texts amongst the sea of reading that is out there. It felt like every time he referred me to a text, that was exactly what I needed in that moment.
He helped me understand the true meaning of the texts and how to interpret them the way Sri Ramana had meant them, while still making it applicable to my busy lifestyle. I’m deeply grateful to Tom’s guidance and teaching and his highly scientific and logical approach to the path of liberation.
Rahul, USA
Hi Tom
I am not very good with all the spiritual jargon but whenever I am ‘in the company’ of this spirituality-presence like listening to your satsangs or reading your writings or just following your posts on FB, I am immersed in an indescribable presence or awareness. Recently what has been drawing me more more is God’s presence. In it I have found strength, love, wisdom, suffering (worries), joy, freedom, uncertainties, peace, surrender and gratitude. I found myself clasping my hands together and speaking silently to God.I am aware all there is is this, this moment and the concept of there being no one doing any of this ,and the illusions. But the urge to bow to God and just silently speak from the heart and ask for (recently answers to my husband’s strange illness and for him to recover). This was made possible by listening to and observing you. I thank God and I thank you for your presence and your direction without any barriers. My husband is doing pretty good now and we have been doing all the usual things like doctor’s visits etc, but throughout this experience I am so deeply immersed in presence, and not even in a blissful way just a beautiful awareness of THIS.
This experience taught me humility, to be humble in the midst of the whirlwind of emotional uncertainties, that we are not in control. Thank you Tom. I hope this makes sense, it doesn’t have to, but I wanted to share this with you. In the meantime life is quite normal with me swearing and complaining and the whole works.
Love
Kathryn, New Jersey, USA.
I chanced upon Tom’s website at a very interesting time in my journey. I had studied traditional Vedanta for many years. I had some good understanding about the concepts and was doing some serious self inquiry or Atma Vichara. That’s when I started tying myself into all sorts of knots. I wasted a lot of time confused by concepts and was in a very frustrated place until I spoke to Tom.
I believe things happen for a reason and you meet the right people at the right time in the journey. Within a couple of sessions, Tom was able to help me unravel some of these knots. As the layers started peeling off and more layers and depth opened up the journey started taking a different shape. Throughout this, Tom was able to ask just the right question and clarified many concepts that would have otherwise taken a life of their own.
I found his teaching style refreshingly down to earth and humble and since he was able to speak from his direct experience, it made everything so real and relatable.
Arvind, India
Having discovered Bhagavān Sri Ramana and his teachings online, I quickly consumed as much information about his teachings as possible. I found Tom, his YouTube and his website a few months later, and was awed (and continue to be to this day) by the breadth and accessibility of the material. I came in with fixed ideas about how a “liberated sage” or “spiritual teacher” should behave, speak or look like, ideas that have no basis in reality, as an aura of peace and stillness is a better identifier of a genuine teacher than any behaviour – an aura which I feel is palpable when coming in touch with Tom and his sharing. However, Tom charging money for satsangs and 1:1 meetings initially did make me somewhat suspicious of him.
Despite this, Tom makes a concerted effort to accommodate low or no-income seekers by publishing all his writings for free, have download links to books on the recommended reading list and refusing to price anyone out of attending satsang, all you have to do is email him to let him know. With the recent addition of the 1:1 fund, where satsang attendees are free to, if they so choose, generously contribute in order to allow those without the means to pay access to the meetings, I’ve had the privilege to take advantage of this scheme, by which I am humbled, and for which I am grateful.
Tom as a teacher and person in general is very kind, warm, and easy to chat to, our session at times felt more like hanging out with a close friend rather than some sort of super serious spiritual talk. His unique blend of affirming where you stand and making you feel secure while still challenging your mind’s patterns and beliefs and encouraging you to re-frame and re-examine ideas and behaviours you struggle with make him an excellent fit for seekers who struggle with anxiety, depression or low self-esteem.
While often these non-dual teachings can feel like having the rug pulled out from under your feet out of nowhere, in my experience, Tom’s gentle approach can leave you feeling (in the short term) like not a lot has actually happened or changed, but over time, you notice the subtle differences in the way you think, practice and interact with the teachings and life at large. This extremely fundamentally sound approach focuses not on the “bells and whistles” one may associate with spirituality, but rather on genuinely bringing the seeker towards peace and contentment in their daily life.
After attending satsang regularly for around 13 months now, I can tell it’s making a huge difference in terms of reducing negativity and suffering I was experiencing. The ease and convenience of accessing Tom’s presence 2x weekly is just the cherry on top. If any of this sounds remotely interesting to you, I highly recommend you check it out – we’re very privileged to have such a profound source of spiritual support a few clicks away. Between the YouTube channel, blog posts, recommended reading texts, zoom satsangs and 1:1 meetings, it’s very simple to slowly empty your mind of the harmful and extraneous and fill it with stillness and intense desire for liberation, regardless of your life situation.

Tom has spoken a few times at Seeking Nothing talks (seekingnothing.com). Although he has a different ‘take’ on things he has been able to cater for our participants due to his wide ranging knowledge of non-duality and his flexible approach to accommodate and meet people on where they are at.
Tom has shared a platform with a couple of our speakers. This is both unusual and evidence of Tom’s adaptability and willingness to work in creative ways on sharing his message. What I appreciate about Tom is that he is not dogmatic but interested in connecting with people within their own frame of reference. I believe this makes the hardcore topic of liberation accessible to a wider audience.
Tom draws from extensive knowledge across a wide range of spiritual fields including but not limited to Advaita and Buddhism which provides a richness in his talks. He can clarify areas of confusion with his incisive insight and provide nourishing contributions from texts which are helpful in getting a broader appreciation for the (historical) context of non-duality discourse.
Thanks Tom, its been an absolute pleasure hosting you and we look forward to welcoming you again!
Neil Sanis, Seeking Nothing
Through a series of one-on-one meetings, Tom has quickly become a very influential and positive figure in my life. I stumbled upon Tom while trying to work through some of life’s more challenging questions. Questions such as: ‘Who am I?’, ‘Do I have free will?’, and ‘Is it possible to end suffering?’. Tom’s insight into these questions was profound and engaging. It was evident that he had himself come to a deep understanding and clarity regarding these questions and was moreover happy to share his insight.
Tom is a down-to-earth human being who is both spiritually insightful and relatable. His teaching approach reflects this in that he is patient, kind, and flexible. He catered his teaching approach to my needs and it helped me acquire a great deal of insight that I did not possess prior. What’s more, the sessions that we had were often very fun and funny. I’m grateful to have met Tom and would recommend him to anyone.
Josh, Israel
As someone recovering from a period of mental illness, I have found Tom’s guidance invaluable in grounding myself in the true, vast expanse of being while acknowledging and dealing with issues that disturb my peace of mind instead of pretending that they don’t exist – which I’ve tried and doesn’t work. He has quickly had a sobering effect on my outlook, his presence in my life has brought me a calm lucidity and peace that has made it a joy to be alive once again.
I see in him both a down to earth father, willing to sculpt his teaching to my human needs, and an embodiment of emptiness that outshines all problems and doubts brought to the session. I am deeply grateful for his guidance and highly recommend him for anyone interested in exploring themselves at infinite depths!
Yago, UK
This is a really welcoming, relaxed group, with interesting and thought-provoking discussions. I’ve always been interested in spirituality and exploring the deeper questions of life, but never really found anything that felt quite right or held my interest. I was completely new to non-duality before this group and feel it serendipitously found me. I look forward to the meetings and never quite know what to expect. For me nothing else has ever challenged me more to look into myself for the truths I seek, which has not always been comfortable.
Tom has been there to help and guide every step of the way. He is brilliant teacher and guide and the other members by sharing their truths are extremely comforting to be around.
Nisha, UK
I find the online ‘meetings’ with Tom very useful, practical and simple. The best thing for me is that he is able to combine different teachings bringing, when needed, the basic points of any of them to the focus and therefore he can ‘meet” any kind of so-called spiritual seekers.
Because he explored many teachings before the realization of freedom happened to ‘him’, he knows how to approach somebody’s mind no matter what kind of teaching they are in. That makes him a unique teacher. Not being stuck in any of these teaching and being able to used them when needed, he is a great help to many.
I am happy to be a part of this group and to contribute to the flow as other people do.
Vedrana, Bosnia & Herzegovina
I joined Tom’s meetup group a few months ago not really knowing what to expect. I came to the group after years of seeking, meditating and spending time in monasteries from Buddhist traditions both in the UK and in Asia. I can honestly say that it came at the right time in my life. I feel both lucky and blessed.
I find it hard to put into words the impact the group has had on me. Tom’s message is contrary to what I had been accustomed to hearing and initially threw me. And it still does in some ways, but that’s actually a good thing because I’m still “learning” a great deal. Tom is a very authentic teacher and his openness to share his experience is refreshing. Perhaps particularly because he imparts his knowledge as if a friend would, not as a holier than thou guru.
It is not just Tom however, but also the connections within the group dynamic that are helping me to see things in a different perspective. It is also helping me when away from the group in some way. It’s like there is an invisible support going on. I feel like I am among friends having a great conversation and it’s to me, at this time, the most important conversation I could ever have. Which is not to say it’s all smooth, there are differences of opinion but it’s safe to express that. It’s hard to explain but to me every time we meet it’s like coming home.
Piers, UK
Tom is a generous, approachable, truthful, compassionate kind of guy. He is also very down-to-earth. I started going to his meetings about a year ago. I love learning about different teachings and I found Tom to be very knowledgeable about quite many of them.
The one thing I’m learning from Tom is that I’m already here, no matter what my feelings are saying. It’s okay to relax, it’s okay to feel my feelings. I also learned that there is no special knowledge I have to get before I die. Very freeing. By being in Tom’s meetings, I learned that even though spiritual teachings can be useful, they’re not necessary for everybody and they’re not necessarily true.
So, what’s different a year later? I’m not sure. Maybe a deep sense of it’s alright. I still get lost when I’m having a low day, but there’s a peace about it at a deeper level that most likely it will pass. I also feel like a 2 year old ready to explore, fine with having tantrums, going quickly from one emotion to another.
Maria, USA
Tom is a teacher who resonates very strongly with me. His approach is to verify everything with personal experience and not take anything for granted. He is well versed in the Buddhist and Hindu teachings on non-duality but his teachings are fresh and modern and not based on any belief system. The stories and metaphors he uses have really helped me. His structured teachings bridge the apparent dichotomy between “you’re already free” and the seeker’s question, “what should I do to get there?”
They give a menu of choices so that we can choose the one(s) that most suit us at any particular time. Although we know that, in the end, we can discard all teachings and relax into the Truth.
I have found the 1 to 1 online meetings particularly useful where you can deepen your understanding and talk about your specific issues and experiences. It’s like talking to a caring friend. I hope someday he will organise a retreat or weekend meeting. It would be nice to meet up.
Richard, Spain
Tom’s calm manner and genuine presence and a lovely group of people makes this my favourite meetup amongst many.
Simon, UK
Tom is the easiest person to talk to and he gave me the support I needed. In the group I also felt I was not alone in this.
It is lovely to have Tom as a friend sharing the truth and his experience – rather than having ‘a teacher’ with much authority.
Tom’s comprehensive knowledge on ‘classical teachings’ – advaita vedanta, nondualism – gives the feeling of trustworthiness. However, I especially like Tom’s casual and friendly style and concrete topics.
I find there is much less involvement and suffering and much more space in my everyday life after attending Tom’s sessions. There is freedom to be yourself – nothing to seek, nowhere to go, just living what is.
Outi, Finland
Highly recommended to others who wish to explore concepts of freedom, awakening and truth. Very welcoming and relaxed……Attending is a top priority for me – it’s hard to think of what might be more important and uplifting. Thank you so much Tom.
Emma, UK
The talks we are having in this group might be the most important I will have in my life. It’s exciting to meet people with such an interest.
Pierre, UK
I have changed religions, read sacred books, tried meditation and yoga, followed spiritual teachers, masters and gurus and to be fair I must say that all this prepared me to what was to come : meeting super – hu – man Tom Das.
First thing he says :”you don´t need a teacher or a teaching…. that there is nothing to attain.” So he suggests that I should read the Bhagavad Gita , a sublime message from God´s wisdom. Then I realise its essence and start to act accordingly.
A change happens yet all that is left is a pervading silence, a force , a light. Tom claims that this is no deed of his own merit. Of all that he says this is something I cannot agree with. I mean if I look at it with my limited human eyes.
But if I see him with the metaphysical vision of Krishna I can truly say that he showed me the Way to Eternity the Now the All and THE ONE.
Eduard, Brazil
The first moment of true resonance with Tom’s teaching was when I read one of his articles. While reading it, one particular sentence was followed with profound experience, that in a way confirmed what it was said in it.
Since then I was drawn to this teaching more and more, and it is still happening, making this resonance more magnetic with each satsang. I was lucky enough to have a privilege to talk to Tom in Zoom meetings, which was an unexplainable experience in a way. How I felt I find hard to explain, but after each of these talks with him, it felt like walls of the prison inside were shaken.
I have felt the love that meets you at the place were you are, and in its gentle and comforting way shows you the way to get out of your story. Love that knocks you out of your comfort zone to show you how many limitations you have set to yourself, and at the same time gives you its strength to challenge them.
Thank you Tom for your guidance with love, comfort and patience. Thank you for each of your posts, written sentence, and satsangs. They are rays of Grace in my life.
Dijana, Bosnia and Herzegovina
Tom, you are a wonderful human beeing full of love and compasion to everybody you interact with. You are very wise and pracical the same time. Very clearly and lovingly you can guide every seeker to exactly the most short and direct path for them. It touches my heart deeply how absolutely present you can be with whomever you interact…you never dismiss anyone.
It is a great honor to talk to you everytime. Your peace and love raises my vibrations and energy. Sometimes I do not fully undestand the academic speech but I totaly resonate with the unspoken you share.
So rare these days to come across such a sophsticated nonduality teacher who is still so human patient gentle and approachable. We love you Tom very much. I feel blessed by existence to have you Tom as my teacher in my life. Thank you very much for all you give us,…out of your pure love.
Lenka, Slovakia
Love of Bhagavan can be felt in Tom’s presence. That presence pierces through all the layers of the mind, straight to the heart. The silence in satsangs is reforming us, making our egos an offering for the Self to absorb. The first great event in this life was to come to know that Bhagavan Ramana loves me and wants to consume my ego. The second great event was to come to a satsang held by Tom and to start attending regularly.
Tom’s website and YouTube channel are a treasure trove that provides everything needed, whether one is new to spiritual life or already a seasoned seeker. Satsang gifts us a spiritual home, a place to share and heal, and to realize the immaculate truth that Is. The meetings are the highlights of my week. Through the powerful presence, we are maturing; suffering and worldliness fall away, and the essential practice is eventually established: to let go of body–mind–world and to dive within, to be with our Self.
Eternal gratitude to Tom, through whom we can intuit the loving presence of Bhagavan. I can wholeheartedly recommend the satsangs for anyone who longs for happiness and peace.
