He lives in Sunnyvale, California, at the heart of the Silicon Valley, where Pujya Shri Mathioli Saraswathy graciously founded the Nandalala Mission in 1997. He serves as the President of the Nandalala Mission USA, preceded by three other presidents in the past 20 years. [T. R. Ramakrishnan, K. Subramaniam, and R. G. Sundaresan]. He is lucky to live in northern California where a short hike among the awe inspiring hills and coastlines balances an otherwise busy life. Shri Akka has often said that service to those in need and communion with nature are truly spiritual paths, and Murali abides by those words.
