Ravi Nathwani was raised in a conservative Vaishnav Hindu family where Hindu rituals were integrated into daily life from a very young age. As a child, Ravi regularly engaged in morning walks with his father that ended with the traditional satsang, occasionally led by luminaries like Swami Sivananda, Swami Ramdas and others. By the age of seven, Ravi was being trained in the Hatha Yoga tradition and has had a daily practice since 1981. Before moving to the United States Ravi studied the writings of Swami Vivekananda, Swami Sivananda and other spiritual Masters of Hindu philosophy and regularly attended discourses on the Bhagavad Gita by Swami Chinmayananda and lectures by J. Krishnamurti. Ravi continues to follow in his family's spiritual traditions and has become a modern day messenger of a variety of Vedic studies through his lectures and workshops. Most recently, Ravi has been a faculty member of both Tufts University and Tufts University Experimental College in Boston, MA where he teaches such courses as "Hindu Yoga & Buddhist Meditation", "Vedanta & The Upanishads", "Karma & Relationships" as well as lectures on the Bhagavad Gita and the teachings of J. Krishnamurti.
