Spirituality and success aren’t opposites — they’re
partners.
Virendra Qazi is not your typical spiritual guide. With a
foundation in natural sciences and a distinguished corporate career — including
leadership roles at Hindustan Steel Limited and the Steel Authority of India —
he bridges the worlds of pragmatic logic and profound wisdom. Born in Kashmir
and educated in both science and public administration, Qazi brings a rare
balance of intellect and intuition, translating timeless philosophies into
insights for modern life.
A Journey from Corporate Leader to Spiritual Luminary
While ascending the corporate ladder, Qazi never lost sight
of a deeper quest for meaning. Under the mentorship of revered masters like Dr.
B. N. Pandit and Brahmacharya Uday Nath Tikoo, he immersed himself in the
mystical teachings of poet-saint Lalleshwari and the transformative practices
of Vigyan Bhairav Tantra. This dual life — executive by day, seeker by
night — culminated in the founding of the Lalleshwari International Trust
in 1992, an institution devoted to sharing the philosophy of Kashmir Shaivism
with the world.
What Is Kashmir Shaivism?
Kashmir Shaivism is not a path of renunciation but of
realization — a radiant invitation to find joy within the everyday. Emerging
from the Himalayan heartland, this philosophy celebrates life as divine in
itself. It teaches that divinity is not distant or abstract, but alive and
pulsating within every being. Through practices like Trika Yoga, seekers
learn to awaken an inner bliss so deep that worldly pleasures pale in
comparison.
Free from dogma or exclusion, it embraces all — transcending caste, gender, or
creed — offering a liberating understanding of existence. The life of Bhagwan
Krishna, as depicted in the Mahabharata, stands as a living embodiment
of this practical Shaivism — a celebration of awareness amidst action.
Global Ambassador of Inner Bliss
From the lecture halls of the University of Delhi to the
studios of the UK’s Midland Broadcasting Corporation, Qazi has carried Kashmir
Shaivism to global audiences. His teachings have inspired study circles and
seekers across the US, Canada, Singapore, and Malaysia.
Honoured with a Certificate of Recognition by California Senator John Burton,
Qazi’s influence continues to grow through guided meditations, corporate ethics
workshops, and immersive satsangs that bridge spiritual insight with everyday
relevance.
Blending Ancient Wisdom with Modern Relevance
Qazi’s true gift lies in making the ancient contemporary.
Whether illustrating business ethics through Shaivist principles or leading
packed meditation sessions, he demonstrates that spirituality and success are
not adversaries — but allies. His teachings emphasize living fully in the
present, facing life’s challenges with clarity, compassion, and courage.
A Legacy of Love and Light
Accompanied by his wife, Hema — an accomplished artist and
devotional singer — Qazi’s mission is as much a family calling as it is a
spiritual one. Together, they embody the harmony of material and spiritual
fulfillment.
With humility, humor, and boundless compassion, Virendra Qazi isn’t merely
teaching philosophy — he is helping people live it. In an era of
uncertainty, he offers a timeless reminder: the universe you seek lies within.
