international level is seen and recognized. If I go on describing all these things, it will become a book. Still, I would mention few important things: He is president of World Peace foundation; Vice-President of international Social Philosophy; General Secretary of Indian Philosophical Congress and worked as the director in different educational institutions. He was honoured as General President, Key note speaker, endowment speaker and chair person in several national and international seminars and conferences. He was invited to teach as Distinguished International scholar in Cleveland State University, Ohio, USA and Loyola Marymount University, Los Angeles USA and other foreign Universities which show his international standing. Still, he is being invited by several National and International Universities. He is prolific writer of Philosophy and has authored fourteen books and more than one hundred twenty research papers to his credit. He has successfully guided 14 Ph.D. students and more than 80 M.Phil. Students so far. He can read and write and deliver lectures in Sanskrit, Kannada, English, Hindi, Marathi and Gujarati. He has edited several books and journals and souvenirs. He is Ph.D. referee in well known Universities of India, such as Mumbai, Banaras, Pune, Karnataka, Sagar, Mysore etc.
I am overwhelmed by seeing the graph of his progress at national and international level, arising from a small village as his birth place in Karnataka. Even though, he has reached great height of scholarship, still I see that small child Yajneshwara in one corner of his personality. When he comes to native place, he sits cross-legged like others on the ground and eats his food in traditional way in the plaintain leaf conversing with others. This is the instance where I find his retained childhood.
Let the words of Lord Krishna in Bhagavad Gita that 'I take care of those people who are completely devoted to me' be with my dear Yajneshwar and his family. This is my blessing to Yajneshwara.
