Brahmachari Arunsharma

Brahmachari Arun Ji was born in a small village, close to Shimla in Himachal Pradesh. He completed his Bachelors Degree in Sanskrit, from Nehru Sanskrit College, Shimla in 2009. A transformation in his life came when he happened to do his first Art of Living Youth Leadership Training Program in 2008. Having experienced the Sudarshan Kriya, he easily overcame stress, anxiety, fear, anger and other negative emotions. Before doing the YLTP program, he was in search of the Divine, having felt lonely throughout life, with no fixed vision or a path to tread on. But when he underwent the program, he felt he had a glimpse of divinity in Gurudev, giving him the much needed goal in life. Post the YLTP Program, he was in a dilemma, in terms of what to choose in between Spirituality, for which his parents would not have easily agreed to, or Studies. He chose to do both by undertaking a course in Srimad Bhagwatam at Bhagwatam Vidyalaya in Sri Amarnath Nath Dham in 2009. Within a year he was blessed to teach Bhagwatam at the same school. In 2011, he came to the International Centre of The Art of Living for the first time and after doing seva for sometime at the kitchen, he was moved to the Gurukul at the Bangalore Ashram, where he served as warden for 4 years. In 2012 he became an Art of Living Teacher and the very same year he took Sanyas. Since then he has done seva at Chamba Ashram in Himachal Pradesh and Kosi Mathura Ashram where he currently resides
