Interview with Rajan Shankara | Everything Is Your Fault
I had the opportunity today to connect with Rajan Shankara via Zoom and chat about his life as a monk and his new book; Everything is Your Fault. I discovered during our chat that spending 12 years in a monastery isn't what I had perceived it would be. As you, too, will find if you watch the video below. I also discovered you could experience deep meditation in 60 seconds, and here I thought I have to spend hours at it. Mind you, it's not that simple!
For those seeking to discover meditation and lead a calmer and fulfilling life, jump on to Ranjan's website; there's plenty of information on it, read his book "Everything is Your Fault", or join one of his coaching sessions.
BACKGROUND
Since 2010, Rajan Shankara has coached thousands of people on relationships, philosophy, meditation, self-development, and character.
Rajan Shankara left the world at 19 years old to become a monk and study his mind, find out what meaning and purpose was, and if meditation could take him to higher states of consciousness. Having lived as a monk for 12 years, he is now back in society as a world-yogi to teach others how to control their mind, body, and emotions.
Rajan was trained for seven years in monastery landscaping, construction, electrics, carpentry, office work, and vehicle maintenance. During this period of his life, 2007-2014, Rajan went through exhausting measures of self-development, and the deep study and practice of Raja Yoga.
He spent another five years in the monastery office learning clerical skills, travel management and coordination, team leadership, editing, writing, and publishing - and being a part of the Hinduism Today international magazine team of senior monks and managing 16 pages.
From 2014-2018, Rajan began advanced yogi training and studied under the most senior monks in the monastery. As a result, he became a mentor to several hundred people worldwide and helped restore balance in their lives. This was a period of intense inner training to master meditation, intense outer training to master fitness and diet, and the mind by studying history, psychology, military leadership, theology, philosophy, and the priestly arts of Hindu Agamic ritual.
After 12 enlightening years, Rajan Shankara left the monastery with his guru's blessings. Rajan's wish was to teach others what he has learned about the mind, meditation, ego, and soul. He is currently a meditation guide, award-winning writer, author of four books, self-development mentor, fitness and health expert, and business owner in California.
