ABOUT THE FAMILY and its Founders -THE BRAIN AND SOUL BEHIND MOGLY’S GURUKUL.
As far back as one can look, our family's ancestors have been spiritual teachers, selfless givers and humanity lovers. Our great grandfather was AnandSwami, a freedom fighter turned spiritual master of the Arya Samaj. Our beloved mother, Shashi maa was a teacher of the Upanishads and Gita. She was a non-conformist, non-ritualistic spiritual guru. All members of this family are philanthropists with a vision to spread the love, happiness and core values to the society starting young.
