Dr. Robert Svoboda Lectures at Nityananda Institute

by Leslie Goldstein

In August, the Institute was honored to sponsor Dr. Robert Svoboda, who presented three lectures on "Adhyatmuka Kundali: The Serpent Power and Spiritual Development."

Dr. Svoboda is the author of Aghora: The Left Hand of God, Aghora II: Kundalini, Aghora III: The Law of Karma, and books on Ayurveda and astrology. He is the only westerner ever to graduate with a bachelor of Ayurvedic medicine and surgery, and to be licensed to practice medicine in India. He is on the faculty and the board of the Ayurvedic Institute in Albuquerque, New Mexico, with Dr. Vasant Lad.

His astute understanding of Indian culture enables Dr. Svoboda to extract and convey the essence of ancient, complex myths and tales in plain, everyday English. He charmed and delighted his audience with the clarity and ease of his presentation, his adept storytelling skills, and the depth and breadth of his knowledge. We very much enjoyed his visit and hope he will return soon.
