Eknath Easwaran (1910-1990), a talented spiritual teacher, is one of the most honored contemporary researchers of mystics.

Easwaran was a professor of English literature in India and also known as a writer and lecturer. In 1959, after getting a scholarship, he moved to the USA. There, he decided to teach people “not for degrees”, but “for happy living”. In 1961, he founded the Blue Mountain Center of Meditation, and in 1967 at the University of California, Berkeley, he inaugurated what is believed to be the first academic course on meditation ever offered for credit at a major American university. For almost 40 years he taught people to meditate and proposed his Eight Point Program, helping to calm the mind and seek higher ideals.

Easwaran’s texts are clear, modern, and full of gentle wisdom. In his texts, the spiritual heritage of East and West is harmonized.

In 2006, the publishing house “Versus aureus” published the book by E. Easwaras
(Thoughts for Daily Living) “Pamąstymai kiekvienai dienai”.
