The U.M.A. (Universal and Multiversal Academy) was initiated in 1991 by the mystic Bhashkar Perinchery. He is known among his friends as FIL (Friend of Inner Light).
Born in India in an atmosphere of a spiritually rich, culturally diverse and colorful background, Bhashkar Perinchery travelled extensively in connection with his work and on his own initiative, experiencing and practicing various forms of spiritual and mystical teachings. He came in contact with mystics, masters and religious leaders of diverse approaches. This period had a profound impact on his life.
Bhashkar Perinchery has been teaching the art of the 'flowering' of the human potential and inner awakening for over 35 years, giving individual counseling, leading seminars and training, and lecturing in Universities and symposiums all over the world. He lives in Germany where, for the past 20 years, he has been leading the "Universal and Multiversal Awareness Academy", which represents the undercurrent unity and wholeness as well as the multidimensionality and diversity of our reality.
Bhashkar attempts to create spaces, which allow us to inquire, to experience and to discover the different dimensions of ourselves.
In 1997, he was invited to come to the US. He has lectured at Universities and various institutes around the country. In 1998, he came to lead events and talks during the Martin Luther King-Mahatma Gandhi-Peace Celebrations. During the past few years Bhashkar has been offering various events in and around Chicago.
His publications and articles explore world peace, ecological balance and reclaiming one's divinity, or understanding oneself more deeply, with an emphasis on "Individual Initiative". His understanding of the essential factors prevailing in all moments of fulfillment in every area of life, as well as in all mystical, religious and spiritual teachings is expressed in his book "VIHAP - The Secret of Ecstatic Living". One of his most recent publications "The Source of Joy Within", contains twelve sets of effective reminders, that can be practiced and applied in everyday life situations, without additional extra time and space and is a gentle, joyful, and easygoing approach to self-growth and awareness.
