Richard J. Kajuth, MLS, EdS, DD, has been a student of both Western and Eastern religions and their metaphysics all his adult life. As a consequence of his study of Eastern philosophy and religion and in combination with his literary skills, Richard has had the opportunity to edit works of Hindu spirituality, most notably as the editor of Swami Mukundananda’s 2013 commentary on the Bhagavad Gita as well as other works on yoga meditation. As a certified yoga teacher, he has also conducted sessions in meditation and the study of Yoga ethos through the lens of the Yamas and Niyamas. In 2014, Richard began a monthly study group entitled “Alternative Readings in Everything.” It is open to the public and sponsored by two local Carnegie libraries. The group is designed to explore ideas about a wide range of metaphysical subjects and the nature of the Self and consciousness. His Summary and Insights on the subject material covered in each session can be found at www.facebook.com/ReadingAlternativeEverything
Richard is also an ardent student of Theosophy. He retired in 2010 from the Ohio Department of Education as a director of a state support team for school improvement covering a four county region in eastern Ohio. Since then, he has devoted his full attention to spiritual and alternative health endeavors.
