About the Author:
Srinivas Raitha, a National Award–winning biographer, stands as a towering figure in the realms of cultural diplomacy, literature, and spiritual exploration. His illustrious career is marked by a profound commitment to preserving India’s heritage, fostering global educational exchange, and illuminating the timeless philosophies of Mahatma Gandhi and the Himalayan spiritual tradition.
As an Adviser to the Indian Council for Cultural Relations (ICCR) under the Ministry of External Affairs, Government of India, Srinivas Raitha played a pivotal role in advancing India’s cultural diplomacy on the global stage. Working closely with two of India’s most esteemed External Affairs Ministers, Shri S. M. Krishna and Smt. Sushma Swaraj, Raitha contributed to initiatives that showcased India’s rich cultural heritage and strengthened international ties.
Raitha’s passion for education transcends borders, as evidenced by his extensive work in fostering educational and cultural exchange programs across Africa and Asia. Raitha has left an indelible mark on the global educational landscape, inspiring countless individuals to engage with India’s cultural and intellectual legacy.
A lifelong admirer of Mahatma Gandhi, Raitha has been profoundly influenced by the Charkha—the iconic spinning wheel that symbolizes India’s movement for independence and self-reliance. His fascination with this powerful emblem led him to embark on extensive travels across Gujarat, where he immersed himself in studying its historical, cultural, and spiritual significance.
The result of this journey was his critically acclaimed work, Magical Spell of Charkha and Gandhi, a masterpiece in contemporary Gandhian literature. This seminal book captures the essence of Gandhi’s philosophy, weaving together historical narratives and philosophical insights to highlight the enduring relevance of the Charkha in modern times.
In addition to his literary contributions, Raitha produced a short film on the Charkha, which resonated deeply with audiences across India. The film, celebrated for its evocative storytelling and visual artistry, further cemented Raitha’s reputation as a creative force dedicated to preserving and promoting Gandhian ideals.
Raitha’s spiritual quest led him to the majestic Himalayas, where he sought wisdom and enlightenment amidst the region’s serene landscapes. In 2014, his years of exploration culminated in a transformative encounter with a revered Himalayan Master.
This profound experience inspired his next major work, Kriya Yoga of the Himalayan Avadhoot, a book that has become a cornerstone for Kriya Yoga practitioners worldwide. Regarded as a seminal handbook, it offers deep insights into the philosophy and practice of Kriya Yoga, blending spiritual wisdom with practical guidance.
Srinivas Raitha’s multifaceted career—as a biographer, cultural diplomat, filmmaker, journalist, and spiritual author—reflects his unwavering dedication to the pursuit of knowledge, truth, and cultural unity. His ability to bridge the past and present, the material and the spiritual, has left an enduring legacy that continues to inspire readers, scholars, and spiritual aspirants worldwide.
