Manifest Purity, Light & Wellbeing from Within
Tools for Inner Sovereignty
Acharya Shunya
Sattva is a special quality (guna) of the mind that is inherently connected to Purity (nirmala), Light (prakasha) and Health and Wellbeing (anamayam), from within. The Vedic-Yogic and Ayurvedic traditions of wisdom recommend cultivating Sattva, for a happy, wholesome, and spiritually evolved life. Over three morning satsangs, Vedic scholar and bestselling author Acharya Shunya, shall dive deep into the nature and purpose of ‘sattva” and how to lead a deliberate life to enhance sattva in our minds, and align with a Greater Truth operating through us. These teachings shall be based upon teachings on Sattva, as elucidated in the Bhagavad Gita. Acharya Shunya believes that the potential of Sattva is lodged within each human mind, but to discover it, cherish it, value it, and live by its supreme light is the divine task of each embodied soul to unearth
Offered as 3 morning satsangs (subject to change)
Acharya Shunya was born and raised in Ayodhya, the sacred city of Lord Rama in northern India, in a family of grhastha sadhus, householders who were also yogis and teachers rooted in a living spiritual tradition. Her great-grandfather, grandfather, and father were all respected teachers of the Bhagavad Gita, the Upanishads, and Advaita Vedanta. From them, she inherited not only scriptural wisdom but a lived understanding that spiritual life can unfold in the very heart of household life.
Today, she carries her lineage forward as the founder of Vedika Global, an international nonprofit based in the San Francisco Bay Area and dedicated to preserving and sharing her lineage’s wisdom. She is also the guiding teacher of the Vedic Study Circle, a global learning community with students from 21 countries studying the Bhagavad Gita, the Upanishads, and the four yogas: Bhakti, Karma, Jnana, and Upasana.
She is the award-winning and bestselling author of Ayurveda Lifestyle Wisdom, Roar Like a Goddess, and Sovereign Self, and the host of the widely heard podcast Shadow to Self. As a mother, teacher, and lineage-holder, she has devoted her life to making the wisdom of the sages accessible, lived, and transformative for seekers today.
