Since childhood Dr. Wagh has grown up in a God loving and spiritual environment. In 1994, in an eerie experience, Dr. Wagh felt some sublime thoughts emerging from deeper precincts of his inner consciousness. He felt as if these were emerging as a result of blessings of his spiritual Guru Satguru Shri Chile Maharaj. This process continued for several years.
