'Everything I thought to be true about life, its meaning was challenged after meeting Swami. It was reduced to dust. Soon I had to admit that there were things far beyond the scope of my rational mind.' What is it that draws one to a mystic? What is it like to know at close quarters a man whose powers are beyond the conscious mind? What does it feel like to be fulfilled spiritually, to feel understood, to stand revealed? As Ismita Tandon and Swami Vidyananda Om explore their feelings for Om Swami, their baffling experiences with him, a secret world of mystical phenomena lights up. They talk about the intimacy of their daily lives with Swami, observing his sheer power, his simplicity, his empathy for every living creature he encounters and the care with which he chooses every word he speaks, no matter how big or small the matter. They speak of his beauty, his divinity. What emerges is a moving portrait of devotion and trust, and the startling image of a saint who was able to inspire such depth of feeling.


Om Swami: As We Know Him Reviews


  • Ananya Ghosh

    Only those who have experienced Bhakti, will understand the words written in this book. This is a gem. So many thanks to Sadhvi Vrinda ji and Swami Vidyananda ji for writing it.

  • Mehul

    I met Swamiji before reading this particular book. In fact I bought this book from ashram itself to get it signed by swamiji as I already have his all books. But this book actually open my eyes towards him and I literally connecting everything that happened with me in Ashram. This book and swamiji can't be explain in words. He is beyond words. And thanks to Sadhvi Vrinda and swami vidyanand om for sharing their moments with us. A mystic and must read.

    Penned by Ismita Tandon Ji (now Saadhvi Vrinda Om Ji) and Swami Vidyananda Om Ji, This book is a form of devotion expressed into words.
    The book is divided into two parts, First introduces Ismita Tandon Ji, the circumstances through which she met SwamiJi. Chapter one itself is enough to make any body cry and contemplate on his/her own life. IsmitaJi writes beautifully about SwamiJi, Life in The Ashram, Other two Swamis -- Swami Vidyananda Om and Swami Raghavananda Om (Bramhachari Pradeep Ji from IF TRUTH BE TOLD), SwamiJi giving discourses and meeting disciples from all over, SwamiJi miraculously helping the people both local and those coming from far off places and how divine shines through SwamiJis conduct.

    Similarly the Second part Swami Vidyananda tells his story. How Vidyananda SwamiJi ached for a guru and the magical way Om SwamiJi came into his life, How the Ashram was in its earliest days when only Om SwamiJi and Swami Vidyananda lived there doing penance, helping the local people and how Vidyananda SwamiJi takes care of Om SwamiJi.

    Both the parts were equally magnificent, the writing was crisp and at times I found my eyes welling as well as grinning like the backbenchers 😎.

    If you like SwamiJis discourses on YouTube, SoundCloud and now also on Audible Suno then surely you will cruise through this book in maximum one or two days.

  • Ashok Gyanchand

    Wonderful sharing by authors their own experience with Om Swamiji is must read book who have already read books written by Oman Swamiji

    Strengthen and motivates your spiritual beliefs and appraise reader with powers of siddhis attained with grace of Sadhna done under Wright spiritual masters.

  • Subhash Iyer

    Mind blowing experiences and very simple articulation. It's an inspirational book.

  • Chitrotpala Chaitali Dash

    I have no words on how to describe what I felt after reading this book. The book portrays Om Swami's simple way of living, in this complex world. Ismita and Swami Vidyananda Om beautifully narrated their journey and life experiences within the boundaries of Swami Ji's grace, and also the beauty and quietude of the ashram life. And I really love the writing style of Ishmita Tandon (now Sadhvi Vrinda Om). She has expressed each and every experience so vividly that I could feel the occurrences happening right in front of my eyes. Needless to say, she has an impeccable flair of writing, and weaves words like a magician.

    Beyond excellent

    I’m awestruck by the experiences. And also very glad and grateful for sharing them with the common people. If you have one percent faith in god or if you are in search then this is the book.

  • Kaid Sapko

    Really good look into two disicple's experiences with their guru, Om Swami. A joy to read, but of course full of divine and out of this "world" incidents.
