Steve Jobs's Wife 'Wants To Join Sanatan Dharma': Swami Kailashanand Giri Reveals 'She Doesn't Eat Garlic Or Onion'

(MENAFN- Live Mint) Laurene Powell Jobs, wife of the late former Apple CEO Steve Jobs, has been spending the last few days at the Maha Kumbh in Prayagraj. Deeply influenced by Hindu teachings, Powell Jobs expressed her desire to embrace Sanatan Dharma and learn its traditions, according to her spiritual leader and Guru, Swami Kailashanand Giri, who shared the news on Friday.

“We initiated her on 14th January, on Makar Sankranti, at 10:10 pm. One year ago, on 18th February, she was given the name Kamala and assigned a 'Gotra'... She had reached the pinnacle of materialism. Now she wants to join Sanatan Dharma and wants to learn her tradition by joining her Guru. She is composed, simple, and is not arrogant. She stayed in the 'Shivir' for 4 days like a common devotee... About 50 personal servants and staff came with her in two big planes... She is a pure vegetarian; she does not eat garlic or onion...” said Swami Kailashanand Giri.
