"Invocation is my Vocation"

Kailash worked in higher education for many years (as Dr. Kurt A. Bruder; Ph.D, The University of Texas at Austin, Communication, 1994; M.Ed, Texas Tech University, Counselor Education, 1998), but is now devoting all of his energies to developing and presenting material that supports our direct knowledge of the Divine, and enhances our immediate, sustained experience of Love.

In his scholarly work, Kailash investigated a variety of topics dealing with the subject of the human sense of self, one's response to the question, "Who am I?" This issue has always been a central concern across the world's Wisdom Traditions, which recognize that the concept of our separation from one another, and all things, fuels our suffering. Finding a practical solution to human egotism is the perennial preoccupation of spiritual communities throughout history.

Throughout his career, Kailash has explored the communication, beliefs, practices, and experiences of people in a wide variety of religious traditions. He integrates these insights into his personal life, spiritual path, musical performance, and ongoing research, in the hope of offering valuable means of moving beyond our obsessive self-concern into a stable, integrated condition of happiness and well being.

This fundamental transformation in our approach to life is best accomplished by cultivating a preoccupation with Perfection. This means habitually arranging to think about, passionately embrace, and ultimately identify with the Highest Ideals we can imagine. To this end, Kailash has become an Invocation Specialist--someone who excells in invoking the Presence of the Supreme, and who regularly and successfully assists others in doing so, too.

Kailash lives with his beloved wife, Jaishree, and their sons, Bodhi Shankara (b. June, 2006) and Maitreya Aumkara (b. March, 2008), in Fletcher, North Carolina (just south of Asheville). His eldest son, Tristan (b. December, 1995), lives in Texas.
