Mohanji

Founder – The Mohanji International Foundation, 
Switzerland

Mohanji is a philanthropist and a humanitarian. He is the founder of Ammucare, ACT Foundation, Mohanji Foundation, Himalayan School of Traditional Yoga, Dance, Language Martial Arts and World Consciousness Alliance. He has dedicated his life towards serving the world. He is a lover of humanity believing humanity to be the best religion for humans. Humanity beyond all man-made barriers such as caste, colour, creed, nationality and culture. His love extends to all the beings on earth and he walks the path of ahimsa (non-violence) in thought, word and action. He is driven by the conviction that we should all leave the earth a better place after having lived on it.

A non -conformist by nature, Mohanji avoids putting himself into frames and sees himself as a friend of the world – be it aiding the poor and helpless, empowering those in emotional or mental torment, guiding those seeking personal and spiritual development, caring for birds and animals or caring for the environment at large.

Mohanji’s nature radiates that of a loving mother, a best friend, a devoted family man, a lucid philosopher and a loving guide, offering his help and assistance unconditionally. Little wonder that each person connects with him differently, in their own unique manner.
Mohanji says, “I am what you consider me to be.”
