Through this technique, known as SOS Meditation, the practitioner can have a firsthand experience of the inner Light, affirming that there is something that lies beyond this physical world.

Education and Spiritual Mission

Born in India, he completed his spiritual journey under the guidance of two great Spiritual Masters: Sant Kirpal Singh Ji Maharaj (1894–1974) and Sant Darshan Singh Ji Maharaj (1921–1989).

Sant Rajinder Singh Ji earned his B. Tech Degree in Electrical Engineering from the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Madras, India, in 1967 and received an M.S. in Electrical Engineering from IIT Chicago, Illinois in 1970, where he was awarded a special IIT Fellowship.

His training in both disciplines – science and spirituality – has helped him express age-old spiritual teachings in clear, logical language.

Since then, he has dedicated his life to promoting the many benefits of meditation and assisting countless people embark on the profound, experiential journey of self-discovery to deepen their connection with themselves, God, and their fellow human beings.

Science and spirituality make a great partnership. If those engaged in science spend time in the silence of their selves, inspiration will come and lead them to the answers they seek. If those interested in spirituality apply the scientific law of testing a hypothesis in the laboratories of their own bodies, they will find results. Each person is capable of success in proving spiritual truths. Such pursuits can make the world a better place as well as uncover the purpose of our lives.
