About Hareesh
Christopher Wallis (Hareesh) was initiated into the practice of meditation and yoga at the age of 16. His degrees include a B.A. in Religion from the University of Rochester, an M.A. in Sanskrit from U.C. Berkeley, and an M.Phil. in Classical Indian Religions from the University of Oxford. He is currently finishing doctoral research at Berkeley on the traditions of Tantric Shaivism. He received traditional education at yoga āshramas in upstate New York and India in meditation, kirtan, mantra-science, asana, karma-yoga, and more. He currently teaches meditation, yoga philosophy, and Sanskrit in the yoga community. His goal in teaching is to balance accuracy with accessibility, profundity with clarity, and intellectual integrity with heart-expanding inspiration.
PRAISE
“I wish that my life and schedule would have allowed me to attend more of these beautiful classes. Each evening that I was fortunate enough to be there was more of an experience than a class – a gathering of a powerful community, working with amazing teachings and a masterful guide to feed our souls to the point of perfect satiation. Hareesh is so articulate and has a way of making these sutras accessible to those truly wanting to receive them. He also cares deeply for the practice and all those who choose to partake in it.”
~Student, 2010 Summer Heart of Recognition Series
