"Rodney Lingham has a profound knowledge of Veda, Tantra and Yoga, including of the original mantras and higher deity energies that few are ever able to gain. He is a veritable treasure house of Vedic and Tantric lore, not simply of an academic or informational nature, but reflecting detailed Yoga practices understood only to rare souls who can truly extend their awareness beyond human consciousness.

Rodney must have been born with this deeper knowledge and have as a mission to sustain it in this world.  He has already seriously taken the task of guiding others and is carefully transmitting his knowledge to select students.

Rodney is bound to be one of the most important Vedic teachers for decades to come. He reminds one of ancient rishis like Vishwamitra and Bharadvaja who not only had the higher knowledge but made sure that it was protected and shared in the proper context of devotion and respect."
