I am a former corporate executive who has become an author and spiritual mentor (guru). After a deep dive into spirituality, I discovered my purpose—to help people invoke their inner divine.
For those who know me personally, I am Uma Ramachandran. Since becoming an author, I have extensively used my spiritual name (and pen name), Sri Devi Om.
