Panache Desai

Panache Desai  is a most amazing teacher that I have come across recently. What he says feels authentic and resonates deeply with me at a soul level. It is as if there is built - in healing in his words. 


Panache tells us that we are perfect as we are and there is no need to fix or change anything but to simply make use of all that we have already inside us.

I'm here as an example to all that no matter what your life experiences are or how you feel about yourself we are all divine with amazing gifts and abilities. It is my role to make that which was once only accessible to a select few, available to all mankind.
- Panache







Born and raised in London, England, Panache Desai spent a childhood immersed in an atmosphere of prayer and worship surrounded by his deeply spiritual family. His family had close personal contact with Indian saints and spiritual masters for generations. This cultural lineage laid a foundation for what was to come.

Panache's mother received visions showing that her only son was not an ordinary child. His astrological chart was one of a spiritual leader foretelling a life of spiritual service.

As a child Panache knew he was different. He possessed an innate kindness and love rarely experienced from one so young. He was recognized by visiting monks and teachers as gifted. Always taking special interest, they would shower him with blessings almost quietly knowing what was to come. By adolescence he possessed a profound awareness that he had come to do something special. More......

Accessing Your Potential for Greatness

So many people want to stretch and grow into more than who they know themselves to be.What is your potential for greatness… what are you capable of? What are you here to do? What holds you back from inspiration, possibility and greatness? What will it take to access your greater potential?
You Were Born For Greatness
I see you not as your stories, your limitations or your past failures. You are so much more than you realize. What shines forth when I see you is your limitless potential. I see a container or conduit that is… Read more here

Give up your limited self willingly to the Unlimited

Once you have given up your limited self willingly to the Unlimited, you will rejoice so much in that consciousness that you will not care to be small again.

Bowl of Saki, by Hazrat Inayat Khan




Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan:

If you ask someone to say where he is, he will point at his arm, his hand, his body. He knows little beyond that. There are many who if asked, 'But where do you think you are in your body?' will say, 'In my brain.' They limit themselves to that small physical region which is called body, thus making themselves much smaller than they really are. The truth is that man is one individual with two aspects, just like one line with two ends. If you look at the ends, it is two. If you look at the line, it is one. One end of the line is limited, the other end of the line is unlimited. One end is man, the other end is God. Man forgets that end, and knows only the end of which he is conscious. And it is the consciousness of limitation which makes him more limited. Otherwise he would have far greater means of approaching the Unlimited which is within himself, which is only the other end of the same line, the line which he calls, or which he considers to be, himself. And when a mystic speaks of self-knowledge this does not mean knowing how old one is or how good one is or how bad, or how right or how wrong. It means knowing the other part of one's being, that deeper, subtler aspect. It is upon the knowledge of that being that the fulfillment of life depends.

When a man has a ragged coat he says, 'I am poor'. In reality his coat is poor, not he. What this capacity or accommodation contains is that which becomes his knowledge, his realization, and it is that which limits him. It forms that limitation which is the tragedy of every soul. Now, this capacity may be filled with self, or it may be filled with God. There is only room for one. Either we live with our limitation, or we let God reign there in His unlimited Being.
