The Light Behind Navayugam and Gyanodhayam
Srilasri Sri Jai Guruji was born with an innate sense of compassion and spiritual wisdom. Even from a young age, he exhibited a deep understanding of human pain and the desire to uplift others. His personal life has been one of simplicity, service, and silent transformation — living not for himself, but for the betterment of all beings. Srilasri Sri Jai Guruji, the revered founder of Navayugam and Gyanodhayam, was born on the sacred day of Pournami (Full Moon), April 4, 1977, in Puducherry, India, to Shri Narayanasamy and Smt. Punithavathi. Named Jayakrishnan (Rajaram) at birth, Guruji led a modest and grounded life in his early years, completing his school and higher education in Puducherry and Vizhuppuram, Tamil Nadu.

A Divine Awakening
On March 21, 1990, at the tender age of 13, while in deep meditation at the sacred Kailasanathar Temple in Puducherry, Guruji attained enlightenment. This profound spiritual awakening became the cornerstone of his life's mission — to show that a regular individual, living a family life and facing everyday struggles, can still reach the highest state of spiritual realization.
