In 2023, Sage-ing International introduced a new program, Turning Points, a series of highly inspirational interviews featuring amazing thought leaders who have inspired many people on their conscious aging journeys. The feedback from both interviewees and participants has been so overwhelmingly positive, that SI has decided to offer the individual video podcast interviews to new registrants to view for 30 days.

What makes these interviews so unique is that they do not focus on the careers and successes of these accomplished thought leaders; rather, they focus on the significant turning points in their lives, the times of struggle and transformation along with the wisdom gained from their own experiences of uncertainty, missteps, and difficulties. From their shared stories, we will learn more about how these difficulties in life have the power to lead to meaningful new beginnings. We will be inspired to reflect on those “dark nights” in our own lives and to adopt some of these valuable learnings of others.

September 25th – Raghu Ananthanarayanan

Raghu Ananthanarayanan is a healer, a behavioral scientist, and an organization consultant.

Three extraordinary teachers mentored Raghu Ananthanarayanan in very difficult phases of his life; J Krishnamurti, Yogacharya Krishnamacharya and Pulin K Garg. He was intimately involved with them for more than a decade from his late twenties. This engagement not only transformed him, but also evoked from him his service orientation, his sadhana. His work revolves around helping individuals, groups and organizations discover their dharma, and become the best they can be. This he believes aligns with his own personal sadhana.   More information HERE.
