Welcome!

Socrates wannabees clubMy name is Nirbhasa, and I live in Dublin, Ireland. I work as a teacher and web designer, but my main focus in life is my spiritual quest for self-discovery - to become a better person so I can serve the world around me.

I am very grateful for all the inspiring stories I have read over the years, by people from all roads and walks of life describing their inner journey, so this is my attempt to pay a little fraction of that debt back by offering some accounts of my own.

Lounging Around

I hope you'll find something here that will brighten up your day (and hope that you won't have to look too hard to find it)

Here are some photos of me, my brother Sadanand who is also a student of Sri Chinmoy, and Socrates (no relation, despite the striking physical resemblance).

On the right hand side, that's us being slightly less intellectually dignified waiting for a flight. Socrates asked us to mind his bag whilst he went to Starbucks.

Visiting my Master

When my teacher Sri Chinmoy was with us, we would visit him as often in New York where he lived - here are personal diaries from 3 of those visits.

General musings

Here are some of articles, most of them from a blog I kept on this site for many years.
