What Would It Be Like ToBe The Very Best VersionOf Yourself That You CanImagine Right Now?
“You’re under no obligation to be the same person you were 5 minutes ago.” – Alan Watts
I find this to be one of the truly valuable questions we can ask ourselves each day, because it stretches, not only capabilities, but our imagination of what is possible in our life.
If you reread that question and contemplate it for a moment, you’ll experience a few flashes of inspiration. You might visualize things like…
“I would have this and that…”
“I would speak like this…”
“People would act like this towards me…”
…And the more frequently and more deeply you reflect upon this question, the more and more you realize that the knowledge of being the BEST possible version of you already exists within your mind and heart.
And it is for this reason that I am never attempting to ADD too much advice about what you should desire or not desire. You know what you want. Sure, that might change here and there over time, but ultimately you know.
Because YOU… the real you… The true Self that is your genuine and authentic reality already knows what is best for you.
My goal with Padasevana is to help you realize that and become the fullest expression of your glorious, beautiful, Divine existence.
It’s already right within you, it’s only a matter of attaining the right knowledge and the subtlety of intellect to be able to perceive and awaken to it.
May you attain the heights of realization, love, joy, and greatness in this very life.
What Does Padasevana Mean?
And Why did you choose that name...
The word “Padasevana” is a Sanskrit word that’s meaning is as mystical and profound as the colorful stories that surround it.
In a simple way, Padasevana means “To serve the lotus feet of the Lord.” But, from another perspective, it can mean “To serve the lotus feet of the Lord through humanity.”
And it is with that special characteristic that Padasevana.com was created.
…to be in service to humanity. To all beings everywhere. To you. And from YOU to others as well.
And while the list of possibilities is endless, there is one particular service that has the power and scope to render all other forms successful.
Our highest work, here, is to catalyze that deep transformation within all who are willing to open their mind to these teachings, insights, and inspirations.
Because if we are to transform the world in a positive and ever-lasting way… It is essential for us first to turn our attention inward, first, and begin the deep inner work towards Self-Realization.
In Yoga, this is considered the highest work. The most heroic.
It is also most difficult, unless you have guides, gurus, and friends.
Remember, you ALWAYS have guides, gurus, and friends.
Because if we can help you transform even a single life into a beautiful one, filled with love, light, purity, compassion, and harmony… A ripple spreads across the cosmos and effects the whole of creation.
Then all of our external goals to “clean up the planet”, “save the animals”, and so on become quite easy and without hinderance.
So, welcome to Padasevana.
Om Prem.

Below I’ve included a few photographs of my adventures thus far, that I feel answer the question “who am I” (as a person) pretty well. Beyond that, I feel it’s necessarily to express something else, due to more recent events in the world.
This isn’t a political platform, but there are certain principles and values of life that are given expression in a beautiful way OR suppressed terribly depending on the form of governing. Through my deep studies and profound experiences of which I’ve learned much about reality (beyond just the obvious and visible), I’ve come to find that freedom, liberty, and justice are most highly regarded in our American society.
I’m proud to be an American and I cherish this glorious nation. On the other hand, I give no merit or support to those who seek to destroy our country and degrade the people and intelligent voices within it. Tyranny, “cancel culture”, anger, hate, rage, rioting, and destruction of the lives of our fellow neighbors has no place in this beautiful nation and neither do those who promote, fuel it, and engage in it.
It is the sign of a very twisted mind and a lack of maturity and spiritual evolution to advocate such actions. On the contrary, it is a sign of great spiritual awakening when we can come together, have intelligent discussions, put aside the brainwashing propaganda of the wicked few who control much of the news media, and work together in peace, harmony, and strength.
I desire only the very best for the people of this world and beyond. Om
While I invest a considerable amount of time on the computer, I prefer to be surrounded by the trees, plants, insects, and creatures of the forests and jungles.
Flutes are my instrument of choice. Native Amaerican, Bansuri, Quena... I love them all. Something about the breath (life) creating magical reverberations (creation) that lights up my heart when I play
In Florida, it's SUPER common to find a turtle crossing the road, often towards certain death. Yes, I'm one of those guys who stops traffic, jumps out of the car, and carries them to safety. Even the little ones.

Since I was very young, spiritual studies and exploration in my dreams have been a focal point in my life, but it wasn't until I met my beloved guru that spirituality took on a whole new dimension of daily expansion & integration. Om Gum Gurave Namah.
Although I travelled to Maui for a different reason (helping a friend to heal) I did get to adventure a bit. It's an incredible island. She beckons you to come back the moment you depart.
I'm hardly masterful at it, but it's fun to take an image and make it "come to life" just a little bit more in the physical sense.
I don't often travel just for vacation (although, that is nice to do). Traveling to somewhere, like the Amazon, for the purpose of self-exploration is a much greater preference.
After months of research, I developed an oil (that bathed in the full sun for 4 weeks) to heal joint pain. It turns out, it also heals a LOT more... like an infection of the nose or a bad scrape (from feisty cat)
Every year I make a cranberry sauce from a "secret" recipe. It started as one jar... but, once the neighbors tasted it, it's become a larger production each year (p.s. I happily share this "secret" recipe with any who desire it)
The more you document, the more you can learn from your own ideas and life experiences. This is the most important form of education a human being can undertake. It's worthy of further exploration in all fields of learning.
Mother Nature has the solution for every ailment and it's not nearly as difficult or daunting as it might seem to create your own healing & well-being remedies
