Acharya Samaneti is a prison spiritual care worker, philosopher, lover of the written word and seeker of truth. The contemplative life called him very early in his life; an only child, Samaneti found comfort in silence, reflection, and personal inquiry. Samaneti wishes to bear witness to the universality of suffering and actions of love that awaken hearts. This mission leads him to work with incarcerated people and other marginalized populations.
