An agnostic by disposition, Jagadeesan was all of 32, successful and highflying, when a challenge to Bhagawan and the spontaneous grace sowed the seeds of faith in him. He went on to build an illustrious career, eventually becoming a Consultant to the United Nations for Economic and Trade Development, and a Deputy Director General, at Malaysia Industrial Development Authority, and being conferred the title, 'Dato' in Malaysia. Even as he saw success professionally, Mr Jagadeesan, fondly referred to as Brother Jega travelled widely spreading Swami's message and inspiring devotees across the globe.
