Raised in contemporary Mumbai, her early years were marked by an intense inner inquiry into life, death, destiny, and the nature of the soul. These were not passing curiosities, but the stirrings of a deeper spiritual calling. Growing up in an environment immersed in Satvik Tantra through her father, Divya Chetnananda ji, she was naturally exposed to dimensions of spirituality beyond conventional understanding. Her first conscious experience of mantra came during childhood, when the invocation of Maa Kali during a period of illness revealed to her the transformative power of sacred sound, intention, and divine connection. This moment became not merely an experience, but an inner initiation into a lifelong journey of mantra sadhana. Under the guidance of her father, a revered Guru and accomplished sadhak who had divine darshan of Rajrajeshwari Baglamukhi, Guru Maa received initiation into the Vaag Beej mantra at a young age. The spiritual foundation he laid continues to flow not only through her own path, but through the many seekers who now walk the path of Sri Kul.
