Maneck Anklesaria was born in India in 1899. At age 18, he worked with Mohandas Gandhi for several years, and again worked with Gandhi at age 30. Anklesaria studied at the University of Michigan, and spoke widely throughout the United States and the world for decades, sharing the spiritual wisdom of India with spiritual seekers and students, many of whom experienced great personal benefits from practicing the knowledge and suggestions he offered.

Maneck's content and speaking style is interesting, entertaining, charming, practical, spiritual and scientific, psychological and metaphysical, and applicable to one's own life and spiritual journey.
We have just begun the process of going through forty reel-to-reel tapes of Maneck's lectures from the late 1950s and early 1960s, and are sharing some excerpts here for the benefit of today's seekers who are looking for inspiring, practical, and authentic spiritual advice.
The "lost tapes of Maneck" include full-length lectures on many fascinating topics, including: Understanding Nature’s Finer Forces, Finding Our Real Self, The Inner I Am, The Law of Soul Progression: Karma and Reincarnation, The Alchemy of Spiritual Love, The State of Tranquility, Rousing Conciousness, Mental Clarvoyance and Clairaudience, The Art of Meditation, Healing and Occult Phenomena, Lesson on Love and Marriage, Studies into Nature Consciousness, Human Evolution, Kaya-Kalpa, The Art of At-Onement with the Universal Nature Symphony, Divine Healing and Service, Getting Recharged Daily, Your Body is a Metaphysical Expression, and Dynamic Brain Power.
These tapes are a treasurehouse of spiritual knowledge and wisdom, with wonderful stories and Maneck's lovely humor.
