It was in 2005, that Mini Shakti first took Integral Teacher Training with Integral Yoga Barcelona center head, Kirana Stover. Mini Shakti and her husband Kalilu (originally from Gambia who came to Spain after a long arduous journey as a refugee) were inspired by Swami Satchidananda’s teachings and the spirit of Karma Yoga.

Thank you Mini Shakti, Kalilu, and Kirana for sharing this inspiration!What Surgery Looked Like in Ancient India: The Scientific Legacy of the Sushruta Samhita
