Mateo Needham

Mateo Needham is president of the Sri Aurobindo Association.

Integral Yoga entered Mateo’s field and aspiration with force in 2003. He facilitated the Savitri circle for the online collective Infinite Conversations, and co-organized the annual four-day vernal equinox Savitri immersion at Sri Aurobindo Sadhana Peetham in Lodi, California. He also created Auropods, rotating circles of Integral Yoga aspirants devoted to developing our gnostic community, deepening our individual and collective practice, and creating potential for spontaneous co-creation.

Mateo lived and worked in Auroville/Pondicherry in the summer of 2006. Additionally, he serves on the board of the Foundation for World Education. Professionally, he is a biopharmaceutical and biotechnology consultant and investor.
