A live session from #JaipurLitFest2020.
Almost ten years ago, Om Swami renounced material wealth and left for a spiritual quest to Varanasi where he was initiated into the path of renunciation by a Naga saint in a little village. Soon after, Swami spent 13 months in intense meditation in the Himalaya. In conversation with Puneeta Roy, Founder Trustee of the Yuva Ekta Foundation, he discusses his latest book The Book of Kindness, which suggests a definitive means to achieving true happiness: through the path of kindness.
Om Swami is a monk and author of best-selling books including Kundalini: An Untold Story, If Truth Be Told: A Monk's Memoir and The Ancient Science of Mantras: Wisdom of the Sages. Media professional Puneeta Roy’s interest in Theatre led her to conduct workshops with young people using the Expressive Arts as tools for self-exploration and transformation. She is the Founder Trustee of the Yuva Ekta Foundation.
