Rachna Ji, lovingly known among seekers as Yogeshwari Rachna, is a spiritual guide whose life reflects a rare and profound journey of inner awakening lived within the simplicity of ordinary life. Her path did not begin in isolation or renunciation, but amidst the responsibilities of family, motherhood, and worldly duties. Yet, within this seemingly ordinary life, an extraordinary inner call began to unfold.
From an early stage, a deep longing for truth took root within her being. This longing led her across India, where she came into contact with saints, yogis, and spiritual traditions of many paths. She studied, practised, and absorbed with sincerity, yet remained inwardly unsatisfied until she came under the guidance of her Guru, Gurudev Colonel T Sreenivasulu.
She undertook years of intense and disciplined spiritual practice, including advanced practices such as the worship of Maa Baglamukhi. Her journey was not merely one of spiritual experiences, but of deep inner transformation, marked by surrender, perseverance, and unwavering devotion to the Guru’s command.
Through the grace of her Guru and Param Guru, her sadhana (spiritual practice) matured into direct realisation. She was initiated into the path of Shaktipat and eventually bestowed with the title of “Yogeshwari,” a recognition of the state where the distinction between the individual self and the Supreme begins to dissolve.
Today, Yogeshwari Rachna continues her work through the Tarakeshwar Siddha Mahayoga Foundation, located in Bhira village, Lakhimpur Kheri district of Uttar Pradesh. This ashram has become a vibrant centre of spiritual energy, where seekers from across India and from different parts of the world come to receive guidance, initiation, and inner direction.
What makes her path unique is that she has not withdrawn from life. She continues to live within the world, fulfilling her responsibilities, while remaining inwardly established in stillness. Her teaching reflects a living truth that spirituality is not an escape from life, but a transformation within it.
Her work remains deeply rooted in the Guru–disciple tradition, and she consistently emphasises that whatever has unfolded in her life is solely through the grace of the Guru.
