&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Sadguru Mai&#039;&#039;&#039;, also known as &#039;&#039;&#039;Sadguru Vaidehi&#039;&#039;&#039;, is an Indian spiritual teacher, sannyasi, author, and social worker associated with the &#039;&#039;Vedic Guru–Shishya Parampara&#039;&#039; and Tantric spiritual traditions. She serves as the &#039;&#039;&#039;Peethadish&#039;&#039;&#039; (head) of &#039;&#039;&#039;Bhagvati Shakti Peetham&#039;&#039;&#039; in Kalyan, Maharashtra. Her work encompasses spiritual teaching, religious leadership, authorship, education, healthcare initiatives, and humanitarian service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Early life and education ==&lt;br /&gt;
Sadguru Mai was born in Telangana and later raised in Maharashtra, where her formative years were shaped by the region’s cultural and intellectual traditions. From an early age, she demonstrated academic aptitude alongside a strong inclination toward spirituality and philosophical inquiry.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She pursued higher education in &#039;&#039;&#039;Political Science&#039;&#039;&#039; and later expanded her academic and professional engagement into diverse disciplines, including parallel medicine, cybersecurity, and humanitarian and social service initiatives.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Professional career ==&lt;br /&gt;
Before formally embracing monastic life, Sadguru Mai worked across multiple professional domains combining intellectual rigor, technical knowledge, and service-oriented engagement. Despite professional success, she gradually withdrew from worldly pursuits, citing an inner call toward renunciation and spiritual dedication.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Spiritual journey and renunciation ==&lt;br /&gt;
After completing her professional journey, Sadguru Mai formally adopted the path of &#039;&#039;&#039;sannyāsa&#039;&#039;&#039; (renunciation) in accordance with the &#039;&#039;Bhikshu Parampara&#039;&#039;. As part of her initiation, she relinquished personal possessions and donated her entire material wealth to the ashram, redirecting these resources toward spiritual, social, and humanitarian causes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her spiritual formation was guided by two principal Gurus:&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Maharshi Siddhanti Shastri Sarasvati (Ayyaji Maharaj)&#039;&#039;&#039; – Her first Guru, who provided foundational guidance in Vedic philosophy and spiritual discipline.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Yogi Tatshree Sarasvati&#039;&#039;&#039; – Her second Guru, under whom she received training in Tantra sādhanā and advanced spiritual practices.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Both Gurus formally entrusted her with the responsibility of continuing their spiritual lineage prior to their passing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Spiritual leadership ==&lt;br /&gt;
Sadguru Mai is the Peethadish of &#039;&#039;&#039;Bhagvati Shakti Peetham&#039;&#039;&#039;, a spiritual center dedicated to Shakti worship and Vedic–Tantric traditions, located in Kalyan, Maharashtra. The Peetham includes:&lt;br /&gt;
* A &#039;&#039;&#039;Sphatik (crystal) Shivling&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* A five-foot &#039;&#039;&#039;Ling Bhairavi&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* An idol of &#039;&#039;&#039;Mahakali&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* A &#039;&#039;&#039;1001-kilogram Ganapati&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* An &#039;&#039;&#039;Akhand Dhuna&#039;&#039;&#039; (perpetual sacred fire)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The ashram functions as a spiritual retreat for sadhus, seekers, and sannyasis from various parts of India, providing a structured environment for meditation, sādhanā, and spiritual study.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Teaching and scholarship ==&lt;br /&gt;
Sadguru Mai is associated with the &#039;&#039;&#039;Ved Shastra Research Foundation&#039;&#039;&#039;, where she teaches Vedic scriptures and philosophical texts. Her pedagogical approach emphasizes clarity, lived experience, and the continuity of traditional knowledge for future generations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Authorship ==&lt;br /&gt;
Sadguru Mai is the author of several spiritual and philosophical works, including:&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;Ved Upanishad&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;Monastic Life&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her writings focus on interpreting ancient Vedic and monastic teachings in a contemporary context, making them accessible to modern readers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Social and humanitarian work ==&lt;br /&gt;
Compassion and service form a central aspect of Sadguru Mai’s work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Healthcare ===&lt;br /&gt;
The ashram operates a medical initiative known as &#039;&#039;&#039;Ved-Arogyam&#039;&#039;&#039;, which provides free medical treatment and medicines to economically disadvantaged individuals.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Child welfare ===&lt;br /&gt;
She has adopted and supports multiple children, ensuring access to formal education, spiritual instruction, and emotional well-being.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Philosophy and legacy ==&lt;br /&gt;
Under her leadership, Bhagvati Shakti Peetham is notable for being an ashram guided entirely under feminine spiritual leadership, emphasizing Shakti-centric philosophy, discipline, and service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sadguru Mai’s life and work reflect a synthesis of renunciation, scholarship, social responsibility, and spiritual leadership within the framework of traditional Indian monastic systems.&lt;br /&gt;

== Spiritual journey and renunciation ==&lt;br /&gt;
After completing her professional journey, Sadguru Mai formally adopted the path of &#039;&#039;&#039;sannyāsa&#039;&#039;&#039; (renunciation) in accordance with the &#039;&#039;Bhikshu Parampara&#039;&#039;. As part of her initiation, she relinquished personal possessions and donated her entire material wealth to the ashram, redirecting these resources toward spiritual, social, and humanitarian causes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her spiritual formation was guided by two principal Gurus:&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Maharshi Siddhanti Shastri Sarasvati (Ayyaji Maharaj)&#039;&#039;&#039; – Her first Guru, who provided foundational guidance in Vedic philosophy and spiritual discipline.&lt;br /&gt;
* &#039;&#039;&#039;Yogi Tatshree Sarasvati&#039;&#039;&#039; – Her second Guru, under whom she received training in Tantra sādhanā and advanced spiritual practices.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Both Gurus formally entrusted her with the responsibility of continuing their spiritual lineage prior to their passing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
