A former Gurkha, elite SAS soldier, and now the guide behind Nepal’s Warrior Monk Retreat, Krish offers a rare window into what it truly means to awaken the inner warrior — the part of ourselves that rises when everything else collapses.Krish shares his story of struggle, discipline, and purpose. He reflects on summiting Mount Everest for the first time, not for glory, but to honour the legacy of the Gurkhas and leave something behind for his daughter and those who come after. He speaks deeply about the courage it takes to accept death, the humility of climbing, and how purpose must be bigger than ego.This conversation weaves between the physical and the spiritual, exploring ancient Himalayan rituals around the five elements, the emotional power of walking barefoot on sacred ground, and how true transformation begins by mastering not just the body or mind, but the energy that flows through all living things. Krish’s message is clear — we all carry a warrior within us, but most of us have forgotten how to find it.If you’ve ever felt disconnected, without purpose, or like something deeper is calling, this episode will meet you right where you are. It’s a rare glimpse into a world few will ever see — and a reminder that real strength comes from knowing who you are and why you walk the path you’re on. Learn more about your ad choices.
