Dada Nabhaniilananda - "The Monk Dude" Biography
Dada Nabhaniilananda, aka "The Monk Dude," is a yoga monk, meditation teacher, musician, and author. Growing up in New Zealand, Nabhaniilananda developed a deep love for nature. He was always interested in creative writing and began playing music at the age of five.
When studying music and English literature in college, Nabhaniilananda became interested in mysticism. At the age of 19, he underwent a profound spiritual transformation and abruptly changed his lifestyle, giving up intoxicants, becoming vegetarian, and dedicating himself to the disciplines of meditation and yoga. He traveled to India, where he studied the ancient intuitional science of yoga and meditation under the great Tantric Master, Shrii Shrii Anandamurti. Nabhaniilananda was ordained as a yoga monk and ‘Acarya’ (spiritual teacher) in 1979.
Since then, he has published a popular book on meditation, now available in 9 languages, released numerous musical recordings, and clocked up more than 30,000 hours of meditation. Nabhaniilananda has performed or spoken in more than 40 countries, including Brazil, in 1992, where he performed for more than 10,000 people and appeared on stage with the Dalai Lama.
In 2008, Nabhaniilananda came to live in Los Altos Hills, California, where he speaks regularly for Silicon Valley companies, teaches a course at UC Berkeley, and has just published a comical science fiction novel, "Real Dragons Don’t Cry."
