to read many books and engage in deep discussions with friends and
teachers. Not content with intellectual understanding alone, he began a
daily practice of meditation at the age of sixteen and attended many
meditation retreats.Nithya Shanti completed an MBA from XLRI, Jamshedpur and then
worked in the corporate sector. Despite having a promising career, he was
drawn to pursue his spiritual quest further. In 2002, he ordained as a
Buddhist Monk.
After six years of living in forest meditation monasteries in Thailand, Sri
Lanka and various parts of India and the US, he was guided to live, learn
and serve in broader ways than the traditional role of a monk permitted.

2008 and now shares inspiring teachings in workshops, youth programs,
corporate trainings and meditation retreats around the world.

practical techniques pave the way to an inner shift that many have found

meditation and introspection in an atmosphere of trust. Active, flowing and
responsive to the audience, Nithya Shanti’s workshops (which he calls
“Joyshops”) are the gateway to a happier and more fulfilling life.
