Dr. Shukla inherited the science of astrology from his forefathers. His grandfather, Raj Jyotish Pandit Shiv Sevak Shukla, was a renowned astrologer to royal families and bureaucrats.
From childhood he had questions about life and a curiosity about every living thing. He would sit alone and quiet for hours, looking at things to study them and seek his answers. He realised what he describes as his mystical abilities at the age of twelve, and at that age he left home to seek spiritual knowledge.
He travelled throughout India in search of the truth of life, staying with and consulting the scholars, mystics and psychics he met along the way. For a time he remained detached from relationships and the pleasures of the material world. Alongside this, he pursued his secular education and qualified as a doctor.
He began counselling and practising as a life coach only after the age of twenty-one. Since then he has worked as a Vedic astrologer, soul reader, psychic reader, relationship counsellor and talk therapist, and has become known internationally as a soul reader and holistic healer.
A life within you
After his years of searching, Dr. Shukla worked on himself and returned to the world with one belief: the God we search for outside is within us. Not in the temple, not on the mountain. There is no need to run from life, live in the forest or leave our responsibilities to find its truth.
Appearance and clothing do not proclaim our virtues; we are what we are within. It is important to know oneself, and to awaken the guru in oneself. He wants everyone to realise the same, and he is so modest that he does not consider himself anyone’s guru.
What his guidance points towards
- Exploring and adopting holistic and natural ways of fulfilling our outer and inner needs.
- Rediscovering our relationship with our Creator and His power.
- Giving up a path of development that fans consumerism and measures growth purely in material terms.
- Transforming the self by reaching out to the creative energy behind all physical and mental phenomena.
- Rediscovering ourselves and our hidden powers.
How he works with people
Every soul is an individual and needs a unique approach. Sessions aim to reach the core of the issue and offer guidance specific to the person, using whichever of his practices fits: astrology, soul or Akashic reading, intuitive reading, energy work, or simply conversation.
People of all religions come to him. He meets them in Udaipur or by phone, and his approach respects free will: guidance is offered for you to weigh, not to follow blindly.
