Podcast Episode #37 - Madhu Das - From Monk to Marketing CEO

🎙️ New episode in My Mantra episode 37 is here, and it’s a journey from monkhood to entrepreneurship. I’m joined by Madhu Das, wellness practitioner, musician, podcast host, and former monk who now leads a conscious marketing agency helping others share their gifts with the world.

Madhu shares how music, mantra, and spiritual discipline shaped his path—from growing up surrounded by Indian instruments and kirtan, to studying the Bhagavad Gita as a teenager, to living five years in monasteries across India and the U.S. Today, he bridges ancient wisdom with modern business to help wellness leaders thrive without compromising authenticity.

🔹 The moment reading the Bhagavad Gita shifted his life’s path

🔹 How kirtan and mantra meditation open the heart and calm the mind

🔹 Lessons from five years as a monk that translate into business and service
