We are proud to offer Om Kara Kriya® online programs and consultations; these programs are a unique opportunity to study directly with Dr. Jonn Mumford (Swami Anandakapila Saraswati), one of the pioneers in bringing Tantra to the West.

Dr. Mumford -- author of Ecstasy Through Tantra and A Chakra and Kundalini Workbook, among others -- has named us Lineage Holders for the OM Kara Kriya® system in the Americas and Europe and initiated Mark as Swami Umeshanand Saraswati in October 2003. Mark is also Sunyata Saraswati's Lineage Holder, Sunyata (co-author of Jewel in the Lotus) has authorized us both to initiate students into Naga Pranayama (Cobra Breath)

Mark and Patricia are also the authors of 2 books: The Essence of Tantric Sexuality and Tantra for Erotic Empowerment - The Key to Enriching Your Sexual Life
