Kulapathi Ekkirala Krishnamacharya, known as Master E.K. among his followers, is the New-Age-Teacher, Healer and Yogi. He provided socio-economic basis for spiritual living to those, who followed him. He gave a synthetic understanding of the scriptures and their usefulness in daily life. Through his life style he proved that the scriptural way of living is possible even in the materialistic world.

In Master E.K.'s understanding there are no good and bad things or people. He promoted the doctrine of pure love.

He built a spiritual bridge between East and West among those who followed him. Those who lived in proximity to him, know him as a representative of the hierarchy, sent out to spread the Yoga of Synthesis which is age old.

His writings are many but the undercurrent of every topic drives the reader into synthesis. He is a true healer and trained many into the healing activity. Under his guidance number of children schools and healing centres are opened and operated to serve community.

Master E.K. is a multicut diamond. He is Poet, a Vedic Scholar, a Teacher, a Healer, a Friend, a Guide and a Social Reformer.

Listening to Master E.K. when he discourses is a treat for the Souls. Master E.K. excels while teaching. His expressions leave a deep impression in the listeners. His piercing looks, his sparkling smile inspire the Souls while the substance of his discourse is absorbed into subconscious mind.

I was a witness for three years to Master E.K.'s discourses in Europe during the years 1981, 1982 and 1983. The seven subjects that are presented through this book "Know Thyself", the third volume of Overseas Messages, are real gems of Wisdom which every ardent aspirant shall need to preserve in the chamber of his heart for regular recollection.

The teachings of the Master remain ever fragrant, to inspire every sincere aspirant and encourage the aspirant to move further on the path. A keen study not only unfolds the hints to practice but also enables association with the sublime energy of Master E.K.
