Seer who’s weaned thousands off drugs wows Maha Kumbh mela

PRAYAGRAJ: A perfume-maker whose own life did not exactly smell of roses before she embraced spirituality and became a seer is now spreading her fragrance as a talismanic Maha Kumbh inspiration, having helped thousands who had lost themselves to drugs claw back with a higher calling.
Swami Ananta Giri's life seems like a leap of faith - she endured profound distress and hardship when her husband got addicted to drugs, losing his ability to think and work. This life-altering experience led her to seek a higher purpose, eventually embracing the spiritual path.
Guided by Mahamandaleshwar Swami Charanashrit Giri, Jalandhar native Ananta embarked on the practice of Shri Vidya Sadhana, an ancient discipline encompassing thousands of mantras and their profound mysteries.
In pursuit of this path, Ananta left behind a career in the perfume industry and dedicated herself to others. She has now transformed the lives of over 10,000 youths, steering them away from substance abuse and towards the eternal wisdom of Sanatan Dharm. Under her mentorship, over 200 young people have established successful businesses not only in India, but also in Canada and New Zealand.
With inspiration from UP chief minister Yogi Adityanath, Swami Ananta is now spreading awareness among youths through Swar Yoga at Maha Kumbh. She is working on unlocking their inner energy using the Gayatri Mantra, Agnihotra, and Swar Vigyan, an ancient science that enables prediction and regulation of future events through breath control.
She leads her spiritual initiatives through Swar Yoga Peeth in Rishikesh. Additionally, she teaches Nadi Vigyan, helping youth live in harmony with nature.
