AWAKE - Freedom From The Inner Prison (March)

Hi and welcome!

I'm Nithya and my team and I will be facilitating the creation of this conscious community along with each one of you. The aim is to co-create spaces and places where we can strengthen our capacities for a more authentic, harmonious and inspired life.

An interest in personal growth and spirituality from an early age inspired me to read many books and engage in deep discussions with friends and teachers. Not content with intellectual understanding alone, I began a daily practice of meditation at the age of sixteen and attended many meditation retreats. I later completed an MBA from XLRI, Jamshedpur and then worked in the corporate world. In 2002, I left my career and ordained as a Buddhist Monk.

After six years of living in forest meditation monasteries in Thailand, Sri Lanka and also various parts of India and the US, I was guided to live, learn and serve in broader ways than the traditional role of a monk permitted. With the blessings of my teachers I stepped out of monastic life in early 2008. I now share inspiring teachings in Happiness Joyshops, youth programs, corporate trainings and meditation retreats around the world. I have been invited to share these teachings around the world by leading universities, corporate and non-governmental organizations.

My aim is facilitating a shift from ‘seeking happiness’ to ‘spreading happiness’ through simple, joyful and practical teachings.
