Nayaswami Narayan

Nayaswami Narayan is an engaging and humorous teacher who touches hearts through heartfelt stories that illustrate spiritual teachings in down-to-earth and practical ways. He and his wife, Nayaswami Dharmadevi, are longtime Ananda teachers and ministers, and together they manage the publishing arm of Ananda, Crystal Clarity.

They live near Ananda Village on a piece of land with a cow, goats, chickens, and dogs—affectionately dubbed their “hobby farm.” The animals provide plenty of inspiration and story material, which Narayan often transforms into entertaining, albeit wisdom-filled teachings.
