In the spring of 1985, as a young man in search of answers, Matthew Bennett traveled alone to India and met his Gurudeva, the venerable sanskrit scholar, Vaisnava saint, and eminent Vedic Acharya- Srila Sridhar Maharaja (1895-1988). The following year, on the banks of the holy Ganges river, Matthew was initiated into the brahminical lineage of priest-teachers, and given the name Matura Nath das. Inspired by the deep wisdom and devotion of his Gurudeva, Matura has engaged in educational outreach programs for the past 28 years.
