Film career
Sarma garu first tried his hand at writing lyrics of devotional songs and made an audio album with the help of noted playback singer, S.P.Balasubrahmanyam. The album was an instantaneous hit, opening doors for him to enter the glamour world of cinema in Chennai. Later, Sarma garu wrote several hit songs for the Telugu films, such as Subhakaankshalu, Pellisandadi, Pedarayudu, Suryavamsam, etc. Having experienced some success in the cinema field, though, Shanmukha Sarma did not become a slave to it. He has been able to break free from any addiction or intoxication of success and continue his more arduous pursuits of spiritual development.
Spirituality
As Sri Sarma garu was brought up in a scholarly family, he learned shastras and kavya vachanas from eminent gurus. Dedicating his life to more metaphysical matters, he now tours the State giving discourses and lectures with Hyderabad as his base. His first lecture on 'Agni' at the Sivaramakrishna kshetram in Vijayawada laid the foundation for the endeavour. The lecture was a great success, and Sri Shanmukha Sarma has continued from there.[1]
He has been giving religious discourses, lectures on the rich Vedic values and Itihasas, all over Andhra Pradesh and other parts of India. He has toured extensively in the US, UK and Australia, gave lectures on Hindu scriptures, and on Indian heritage.
He is thus instrumental for bringing about a cultural and spiritual renaissance. His handling of the subtlest subjects of epics and Upanishads shows his level of scholarship and command, besides interpretative expertise. He draws huge gatherings of discerning listeners everywhere.[2]
Rushipeetham
With a view to bring that ocean of knowledge of vedic Shastras in a style that can be understood by many people, Sri Sarma started a monthly magazine called 'Rushipeetham. Related website: www.saamavedam.org
