  • Dr Sanjaya Rajaram's Profile
    Dr Sanjaya Rajaram’s profile Sanjaya Rajaram, born in India and a citizen of Mexico, graduated with his B.S. in Agriculture at the University of Gorakhpur and Masters in genetics and plant breeding at the Indian Agricultural Research Institute in 1962 and 1964 respectively. In 1965 he began his PhD in plant breeding at the University of Sydney on a scholarship from the Rotary Club of Narrabri under Dr. I.A. Watson who had been a fellow graduate student with Norman Borlaug at the University of Minnesota. Watson recommended him to Dr. Borlaug and Dr. Glenn Anderson at the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT) in Mexico, an action that set in motion Rajaram’s distinguished scientific career in wheat research. He implemented a major expansion of Borlaug’s ingenious shuttle-breeding approach in countries beyond Mexico. Dr Rajaram significantly advanced his mentor’s work in improving wheat varieties during a period that has been described as the “golden years” of wheat breeding and production. Like Borlaug, Rajaram had the extraordinary ability to visually identify and select for cross breeding the plant varieties possessing a range of desired characteristics, an ability that was essential to wheat breeding in the 1980s and ‘90s. Rajaram also launched efforts to expand the global scientific wheat network which had not been done before. This led to the accelerated development and worldwide spread of high- yielding wheat varieties, which has kept the expansion of global wheat production ahead of population growth and made wheat even more accessible to the world’s poor. He also realized the importance of nutrition to the poor and strongly supported research on micronutrient-enriched wheat varieties.

During the late '80s and the '90s, a flurry of sadhu activism coincided with the dramatic rise of a previously insignificant political party, the Bhartiya JanataParty (BJP). As a conservative Hindu nationalist party, the BJP allied with many sadhus, came to power at the center and in many states, breaking the monopoly that the relatively secular Congress party had held for more than four decades.

Shade of Divine Grace Blessings of P.P.Yogatapaswi Kaka Mahārāj Dhekane. P.P.Yogiraj Gulavani Mahārāj, my senior brother disciple and Yogi dedicated his life to the propagation of divine Kundalini Shaktipat Yoga bequeathed by P.P.Sadguru Loknath Teerth Swami Mahārāj. Perusal and contemplation of such saintly lives is the most effective way to cleanse one’s mind leading to spiritual advancement. Lives of saints are indeed unfathomable and not amenable to perfect depiction even in voluminous accounts. The limitations of such a concise biography are thus obvious. However, in the modern jet set world, brevity is an advantage. Dr. Deshmukh has succeeded in presenting the essentials of the holy life of the Yogiraj, duly highlighting the many qualities of P. P. Gulavani Mahārāj. The translation by Sou.
