I was born into a family of avid bhakti yoga practitioners, but for most of my childhood I took spirituality for granted. Everything changed when I was sixteen. My father offered to pay me $100 to read the ancient wisdom text Bhagavad Gita. Eager to become a rich teenager, I accepted his offer. However, it completely changed my life and perspective, and touched my heart so deeply that I refused to accept the money!
With a burning desire to dedicate my life to living and sharing spiritual wisdom, I became a monk on my eighteenth birthday. For five years I lived in various monasteries across the United States and India, studying under world renowned teachers and intermittently traveling the world.
STRUGGLING TO FIND A SUSTAINABLE GROOVE IN YOUR LIFE?
I'VE BEEN THERE.
When I graduated from the monastery, I was eager to bring my passion out into the world. Not knowing how to build a sustainable career out of my offerings, I traveled profusely for years, working tirelessly to network and arrange workshops where I could share the knowledge and tools I had learned as a monk. But I was struggling to make ends meet, barely covering my travel expenses.
I was overworking my body and mind. Scattered and constantly on the go, I felt enriched by my teaching work, but at the same time my personal and spiritual lives were suffering, and I wasn’t able to spend the quality time with my wife that I wanted. I had settled for this life, accepting that maybe I just didn’t deserve more. I was afraid of what it might take to truly build the life I wanted.
Thankfully, under the guidance of expert teachers and coaches, I learned how to integrate my purpose and offerings into a sustainable business model. I launched Madhu Life and have found an incredibly nourishing balance between my health, spiritual practices, professional life, and relationships. This is the transformation I am inspired to facilitate for all my clients – navigating the various aspects of their lives so that all aspects are balanced and supporting each other!
My mission is to help my clients thrive – physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually! Everyone who works with me hones in deeply on their vision for their life, identifies what is holding them back, builds the structure to support transformation, and expands it to grow exponentially from there!
I love teaching more than anything. I’m passionate about making ancient, transformative Vedic arts and sciences relevant and accessible for everyone, while still preserving their authenticity and purity. First and foremost though, I remain an avid student. This, I strongly believe, is the qualification of a teacher.

Omkar Mukunda Das
Virtual Assistant
When Om was just five years old, his mother fell ill with a chronic illness that would stay with her for a long time. Witnessing his mother suffer like that at such a young age made Om start to question what the purpose of life was.
It wasn’t until he was in college that he stumbled upon an ancient book of knowledge called the Bhagavad Gita. With spare time on his hands, he began reading it online and found himself completely absorbed in the teachings. By the time he had finished reading just the second chapter of the eighteen chapters, he knew that he had finally found the knowledge he had been seeking all his life.
It was then that Om set out to find the Hare Krishna temple, where he became a monk. He dedicated his life to spiritual practice and started to mentor others who were also searching for answers. Today, he runs a spiritual mentorship program for over a hundred college students in Kenya, helping them find the truth just as he did.
But that’s not all Om has accomplished. He is also an author, having written a book called “Client List,” and he works as a virtual assistant at Madhu Life. Om’s journey has taken him on a path of self-discovery and service to others, and he’s grateful for every step along the way.
