Over the last three and a half decades well-known producer and Vedic scholar Michael Sternfeld has emerged as the undisputed scholar on Ramayana, the Indian epic, outside India. A passionate devotee of Ram, who breaks into chants of Ram effortlessly, Sternfeld has produced his Ramayana magnum opus in the form of a 75-hour-long audio rendering of the great epic that took him seven years to produce. Titled ‘The Ramayana of Valmiki’ it is possibly the longest audio book of its kind in the world. 

An MA in Vedic Psychology from Maharishi International University, he has had a distinguished career as a producer having created more than 400 productions for the David Lynch Foundation involving Paul McCartney, Ringo, Eddie Vedder, Sheryl Crowe, Jerry Seinfeld, Moby, Ben Folds and the Beach Boys, as well as other productions with Jim Carrey, Marianne Williamson and Donovan.
