Want an Enlightenment Experience? [Video by Yogiraj Siddhanath Gurunath]
I first went to see Master Yogiraj Siddhanath Gurunath when I was 18 years old. At the time I was studying at Aston University in Birmingham, and had just been watching a few videos on YouTube of him when curiosity made me check out the Hamsa Yoga website.
