Adiyar Shanmuga and Adiyar Adi Sakthi
Living Himalayan Yogis
Swami Shanmuga and Amma Adi Sakthi are Adiyargal (ardent devotees and servants) of the Sri Maha Pratyangira Devi, an aspect of the Divine Mother. They manifest and personify the pristine energies of Pratyangira Devi and are in Ekatvam, in Oneness with Her.
For more than two decades, Swami and Amma have brought the Divine Mother’s healing energies, blessings and teachings to people around the world. They conducted many workshops, and spoke at international events and at the United Nations.
Swami and Amma have two children. Leading a regular family life and yet walking the highest spiritual path, they show that the two can be integrated. They understand the challenges of walking the spiritual path in the modern world. Swami and Amma relate to real people and real problems and help others integrate spirituality into everyday life.
Swami and Amma are in Tapasya, a profound spiritual discipline, spent mostly in solitude and aimed at lifting the consciousness in the world. They help people advance on their spiritual path by sharing their energies and teachings in subtle, yet powerful and transformative ways.

The goal is to build a Temple in every heart, to serve as a beacon of light to the human spirit, it is about bringing you into Oneness, or Ekatvam, with your Higher Self. That is the true Temple for a person, where the inner teachings reveal themselves and become reality.
- Swami Shanmuga & Amma Adi Sakthi
The thing about Swami and Amma is that they don’t want you to follow them. They want you to become like them. It’s a hard concept to grasp when the prevailing conditioning is one of “worshiping a guru,” but this morning I woke up and thought “oh, I get it.” Empowerment, the light bulb turned on.
- Samuel G, San Francisco
For thousands of years, Himalayan Saints held true knowledge and energies of Pratyangira Devi in secret. However, over time, many false notions have been formed about Her, and people have tried to use Her energies in negative ways. Because of their direct experience with the energies of Pratyangira Devi, Swami Shanmuga and Amma Adi Sakthi bring out the Mother’s energies beautifully. They share the most authentic information about the Devi, dispelling misconceptions and misuse.
Mother Pratyangira is present in the Swami and Amma’s lives in a Yogic form, and not in a ritualistic form. Over the years, there has been a progression from a conventional mode of worshiping to a more subtle and powerful Yogic form. This progression is a natural unfolding of the stages of spiritual evolution leading them to be in the final stage of Gnanam, of just being.
Transcending religions, traditions and cultures, it is Swami and Amma’s mission is to help everyone in the realization of Oneness, of Ekatvam. More detailed information about Swami and Amma can be found on the Divine Mother Pratyangira website.
