During my time at SIU in Carbondale I was introduced to and began to practice meditation and yoga. The movement's name is Ananda Marga. 'The shoe fit' I quickly embraced these teachings and practices, 2 years later dedicated myself as a full time volunteer and in the summer 1979 went to Europe to train as a sanyassi (renunciate or monk).
Since then I've taught, worked and lived throughout Europe, South, SE and Far East Asia, Australia, Ghana and neighboring countries and South Africa. It's been a rich and rewarding life in the service of all.
I've been based in Portugal since late 2017 where I help develop and manage a model project and community: www.anandavalley.org
I am known (and found on FB or Skype) by my spiritual title and name: Acarya Mahaprajinananda or Dada Mahaprajinananda (Dada means brother)
