The Light The Guru Shows US – She The People Interview

Why is a Guru important? Why do we need one? The guru is the one who removes darkness…. Quite literally! In Sanskrit the world guru actually means “remover of darkness: Gu means darkness, and Ru means remover” The guru is the one who shines the light of truth upon US, showing us our true Selves, showing us the light of our own Selves!

Enjoy this beautiful excerpt from a recent interview I had with Archana Pai Kulkarni for @SheThePeopleTV ”s Women Writers Fest. This was a deep and powerful (and very enjoyable!) discussion about my life’s journey from being a PhD student in California to being a monastic renunciate and spiritual teacher in India, and also about my memoir “Hollywood to the Himalayas: A Journey of Healing and Transformation” just launched this week in India by Jaico!

We delved into so many deep questions about life, spirituality, happiness and much more!

SheThePeople is an extraordinary platform for conversations and connections where women learn, share, grow and celebrate themselves and each other. It was wonderful to have the opportunity to share my own experiences with their community!
