Grandmother Jyoti Ma

FOUNDER OF THE CENTER FOR SACRED STUDIES

SPIRITUAL TEACHER & GRANDMOTHER VISION KEEPER

Jyoti Ma is an internationally renowned spiritual teacher and visionary leader whose life has been devoted to honoring the Earth and uniting peoples across cultures. As the Grandmother Vision Keeper of the Center for Sacred Studies, she co-founded Kayumari, a spiritual community with centers in both America and Europe. She has also been a guiding force behind powerful global initiatives, including the International Council of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers and the Unity Concert. 

Jyoti is the founder of The Fountain, whose mission is to restore an economic model rooted in reciprocity, collaboration, and guidance from Nature and the Sacred. In collaboration with the Mother Earth Delegation of United Indigenous Nations, her current work supports a global Sacred Territories Initiative, dedicated to protecting Mother Earth’s sacred sites and the Original Peoples who care for them. 

For decades, Jyoti has facilitated alliances between indigenous elders, medicine carriers, and organizations addressing global challenges in the realms of economy, environment, and social change. She works with wisdom keepers from nations such as the Four Nations of the Sierra Nevada, the Otomi-Toltec, the Lakota, the Ezza of Nigeria, and the Mohawk, carrying the ancestral wisdom that Earth’s sacred sites are vital “breathing places” for the planet. 

Her devotion is to bring unity to the planet and to inspire humanity to remember its deep connection to the Earth. As Jyoti reminds us,

“We are so disconnected from this loving Earth that we need to reconnect to find ourselves again.”
