About the Speaker:
Dr. Shantanu Nagarkatti is a specialist in major ambulatory surgery, he performs surgery in an extraordinary way to keep his patients ambulatory (walking) and out of the hospital within a few hours. You may best remember him as — "the surgeon who keeps his patients out of the hospital." He specializes in Herniology and Proctology.
As a healer, Nagarkatti has a burning interest in the relief of human suffering. This led him into a deep study of psychology, philosophy, religion and spirituality.
During this search he associated and involved himself with several religious organizations and saintly people. Because of his study of the scriptures and by grace of enlightened teachers, he started teaching various Vedic texts including the Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, Bhagavad Purana, and the Yoga Vasishtha.
Since 1986, through his surgical profession, Nagarkatti is living and teaching the message of these texts, specifically the Bhagavad Gita.
