Rainbow Body Sangha

Hello and Namaste! I'm Nithya Shanti and I have enjoyed creating this course along with my team. I am committed to sharing practical wisdom teachings for happiness and awakening with people in a joyful and transformational way. My aim is to best practices for conscious living to release limitations and awaken latent potentials for an authentic, harmonious and blissful 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 sector. 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. I'm on the Advisory Board of Axialent, an international consulting firm specializing in enabling a more conscious culture in business. My aim is facilitating a shift from ‘seeking happiness’ to ‘spreading happiness’ through simple, joyful and practical teachings.
