Dear J, I attended Ajithan’s music classes recently. I have known about these classes for quite some time, but I had always hesitated to spend so much time there. I am, by nature, an introvert, and I am often reluctant to enter unfamiliar spaces or remain in gatherings for a long time.

Dear Jeyamohan, The idea of South Bound magazine is a very important and timely one. Today, we need to organize our creative energies through a common media platform and present ourselves more strongly to the Indian and international literary field.

Dear Jeyamohan, The idea of South Bound magazine is a great endeavour. I believe it is an important initiative at this particular moment because English is increasingly becoming the language through which the younger generation encounters the world.

Cyril has been conducting a series of classes to introduce the Christian intellectual tradition from a philosophical perspective. In the forthcoming sessions, he plans to expand the scope of these classes by incorporating the Greek intellectual tradition as well.

Dear Jeyamohan, I recently saw a short video of yours in which you said that you are not interested in ideas that go against science. I felt compelled to share my thoughts with you.

Dear Jeyamohan, You wrote a commentary on the Gita some time ago, but stopped almost immediately. Since then, you have also given a wonderful speech on the Gita. Both made me feel that you have much more to say about the text.

Dear Jeyamohan, I have been listening to your speeches on YouTube for the past two years. In a way, they have become a substitute for something I lost long ago—the habit of reading. I lost my reading habit nearly twenty years ago. I feel that loss even today.

Dear Jeyamohan, I was watching the programmes organised by your friends at your place. The programmes for children are particularly interesting, and I feel the children are making very good use of them.

Dear J, The recent WhatsApp-status-style banners you have been presenting on social media and on your websites are very interesting. Your quotes are being widely popularised by many people on social media, but generally they present you as a rather serious guru teaching truths about life.

Dear Jeyamohan, Your books are being published in the West nowadays, and you are being continuously discussed in the field of Indian literature. Instead of promoting your books and your personality, you are trying to create an institution with the help of your friends, and thus slowly developing...

Dear Jayamohan, The interviews and talks you have been giving are generally thought-provoking and engaging. In fact, you are talking a lot these days. You are almost fighting with the modern communication technology that surrounds us with its enormous number of advertisements and promotions.

Dear Jeyamohan, I just love those funny banners with your laughing face! Every time I see one, they make me smile and somehow brighten my day. There is something wonderfully spontaneous and mischievous about seeing that familiar face in such playful banners.

Dear Jeyamohan, Being in nature is perhaps the greatest form of meditation. When we are surrounded by trees, birds, butterflies, and the changing light of the day, something within us becomes quiet without any conscious effort.

Modern painting is not merely something in which an artist paints and others look at and appreciate the work. The highest peaks of painting are reached only by artists who devote themselves to it with the dedication of a lifelong spiritual practice. But painting is also something more.

Hi sir,  I m Shanthi Sudhindran. Every Thursday , I m just waiting for your Megangalin kural in Vikatan. I am not a reader , even I have not read any of your book before. But I don’t know something from Megangalin mural pulls me . I think it s nothing but universe .

  Dear Jeyamohan, I have been watching some of your recent videos about technical education and what we should really understand by the word “education.

Dear JM, I have been watching your videos very ardently for the past two years. What I find most striking in them is that they are not merely talks about literature, philosophy, or life. Again and again, they have made me think about how one should actually live.

Dear Jeyamohan, Nowadays, I have also been watching your videos on Facebook. I particularly enjoy the very short videos you post there. Many of them are like tiny brain teasers or little thoughts that stay in the mind.

Dear Mohan, I have been watching your videos eagerly for quite some time now. In fact, I have watched many of them more than once. I find them full of energy, hope and enthusiasm. There is something very refreshing about the way you look at life and speak about it.

Dear Jeyamohan, Occasionally, I visit your website just to see whether there is any controversy going on there. I am not saying this to admit that I am a gossip-monger! Rather, I personally feel that a controversy often reveals the real conflicts and tensions that exist within society and the int...

Guru Soundar belongs to the Soundar Satyananda tradition of yoga. He has been awarded the title of “Senior Guru” by a world-renowned organisation that provides systematic and traditional yoga training.

Dear Sir, I'm Umadevi, I've participated in the recent 3 days with J. I'm grateful to you forever that it was highly transformative in nature and also that I could reinvent myself, which seemed to be quite impossible before, even after prolonged inner conflicts.

Birdwatching Classes The Vishnupuram Birdwatching Group has now grown into a large organization and is active almost throughout the year. Birdwatching classes are conducted regularly as part of its activities. The next classes will be held on October 2, 3, and 4.

Dear Jeyamohan, In my view, one of the major losses to literature caused by the withdrawal of the upper classes from literary culture is the disappearance of certain kinds of knowledge and experience from literature.

The Manasa Lit Prize, a novel competition organised by Manasa Publications, the Chennai-based publishing house run by Saithanya and Kripalakshmi, will host its prize-giving ceremony and a panel discussion on women’s writing at the Atta Galatta venue in Bengaluru.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAeDrM8K1A4&t=325s  Dear Sir, I eagerly watched your video released yesterday on YouTube, where you discussed the complete lack of participation by Tamil Nadu's wealthy upper classes in any intellectual or cultural movement connected with the broader Tamil society.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAeDrM8K1A4&t=325s The video about the negative participation of the upper classes in Tamil literature is good. I am not sure how directly this phenomenon has affected the development of Tamil literature, but I think one important point can be made.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ScNq9sf6BI&t=473s Dear J. Mohan, Listening to music is a form of meditation, but meditation itself needs to be learned and practised properly. Being in nature can also be a form of meditation, and that too requires a certain sensitivity and awareness.

The Modern Meditation and Inner Concentration practices conducted by Thillai Senthil Prabhu have been continuously held under the auspices of our organization for the past four years. A large number of participants take part in these sessions, and the number continues to grow each time.

September  11, 12 and 13  தொடர்புக்கு programsvishnupuram@gmail.com Dear J, I watched the video about the South Bound web magazine on your Facebook page. I think it is a very interesting and exciting idea.

Dear Jeyamohan Sir, It is wonderful to see birdwatching and art classes scheduled once again for the Pooja holidays as part of the Unified Wisdom programs.

Dear Jeyamohan, I have been watching your videos and listening to your talks for a long time, and I have deep respect for your efforts. Through your work, you are introducing music, art, literature, and philosophy to ordinary Tamil readers.

It was only recently, while attending Western classical music concerts in Britain, that I realised how enthusiastically such performances are still received today.

Dear Jeyamohan, I noticed that yoga and meditation are included as part of your training programmes. It made me reflect on one of the central challenges involved in teaching yoga today: the need to present it from a scientific and rational perspective.

Dear Jemo, In the past, a person's profession was only a small part of their life. Today, we raise children telling them that success in their profession is life's only goal. As a result, children lose interest in everything except their careers.

Dear J, I have been listening to your talks continuously over the past few weeks, and each one has given me something new to reflect upon. Among them, your recent video explaining why you personally counsel readers and respond to their family and persona...

  Friends of Vishnupuram have established an organization called Living Tamil. We are also going to institute an international award. On September 11 and 12, 2027, we are planning to hold the second edition of the Living Tamil Litfest in London.

The fifth level of the Hindu philosophy classes conducted by Jeyamohan is about to begin. This level will be an introduction to Nyaya–Vaisheshika philosophy. Those who participated in the previous four levels may join this course. Those who wish to participate again are also welcome.

Dear J, I think the classes for children have now concluded. The two classes—birdwatching and observing plants—are both extremely important. Art education is provided to children today only in a few select schools.

Dear Jeyamohan, You continue to speak and write regularly through this website. Many people who come to you through these talks may never encounter your books. They may form an impression of you based solely on your speeches, without truly knowing your intellectual world.

Dear Jeyamohan, I believe that one of the greatest obstacles to learning in India today is the declining place of the arts in education. Our educational system increasingly treats the arts as something optional or decorative rather than as an essential part of human development.

Dear Jeyamohan Sir and the Unified Wisdom team,  I’m 40 years old, married with two kids, and I've been living here in France for the past 20 years. For the last two years, I’ve been regularly watching your YouTube videos, and they have truly made a huge impact on me.

Dear Jeyamohan, I see you as someone who is constantly trying to reach the younger generation. Today, almost everyone is trying to attract young people.

Dear Je, This is Srinivas, I attended the just concluded Level-2 Indian Philosophy camp in Vienna. Hope this letter finds you! (Though I can comfortably read tamil, writing doesn't come naturally as I never learnt tamil in School or college.

Dear Jeyamohan, The ancient Greek tradition held that the study of philosophy should always be accompanied by the study of music and painting. This was not merely to produce cultured individuals or to make education more enjoyable.

Dear J, I watched the video about creative children. As a creator yourself, your desire to raise your own children as creators and thinkers is something very rare in the Tamil cultural context.

Dear Jeyamohan, As I continue watching your videos, I increasingly feel that all the ideas you speak about are deeply connected with one another. At first, they seem like independent topics, but gradually they come together to form a single, coherent vision of life.

Dear Jeyamohan, When I look around today, I see a great deal of activity and endless pursuits, yet very little interest in intellectual or spiritual exploration.
