Dr Anil Jha is a rare combination of sensitivity and courage. A well know doctor & cardiac surgeon a philosopher, a writer, an environmentalist, a sadhak, a musician, a scientist, a scholar, a researcher….A multi facet personality. He has contributed to social causes in so  many ways. As a young doctor at Kingston Hospital UK , he enjoyed all the privileges that came with his family’s wealth. However, at a very young age he got inspired by Guruji and he became  aware of the plight of the poor and the marginalised and often felt that he should do something for his country. But underneath this extravagance, he was restless. He felt as though he must serve a bigger purpose in the world. He began to help and volunteer wherever possible and also became involved with mission in every possible way. 

He delivered lectures, seminars, workshops, conclaves on scientific spirituality. He conducted extraordinary research on applied science of Yagna for Health and Environment.In spite of his busy schedule never missed any opportunity to work for mission in schools, colleges, universities, corporates….He and his wife Jyothi didi also a surgeon came back on clarion call of Yugrishi.

What greater way is there to remember someone than through a living thing, like a tree.  It is a symbol of life that continues to grow. The images below are testimonials of the utter care he took of them post saplings .All have grown tall trying to touch the sky providing shades to thousands of passer-by daily . Dr Jha says I could not find a better memorial for my father. He appeals keep on planting trees wherever u can, whenever u can.
