Many Lives, One Master

Swami Omkaranandaji's miraculous healings have helped thousands of people from sixty three countries across seven continents.

A documentary to showcase his miraculous feats, which include reviving dead people and reuniting family members across lifetimes, is now underway and is expected to be telecast on an OTT platform.

Swami Omkaranandji holds a degree in electronic engineering and a PhD in metaphysics. He worked as an engineer at Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (HAL) before throwing it all away to search for the reincarnation of his younger sister. He was initiated as a monk by Pujya Babaji Kalyandas Maharaj of Amarkantak, MP. He is famous for his healing work and is currently based out of the Atlanta and Rishikesh branches of Kalyan Seva Ashram.

Swamiji's amazing cures piqued my curiosity enough to interview Him. His luminescent countenance shone as bright as his achievements, and his humility and wonderful sense of humour made for an enjoyable conversation.

Swamiji, you are an engineer by profession. How did you give it all up and foray into spirituality?

At age six, I was crossing the road to go to school when a truck hit me. I was caught under its wheels, but not a drop of blood was shed. I thought I was dead, but I was very much alive. It was the first time that I had an out-of-body experience, though I didn't know it then. Although I was unconscious, I could see people running around me, surrounding me. Then I saw myself being taken to the hospital. I could also see my mother and my one-year-old sister crying at home.

After that, when I was about eight or nine years old, I saw my past life, but I did not know it then. Later, I accidentally landed at a place where everything was known to me from my past life. This was miraculous.
