Manish Vyas was born in Gujarat, India in 1971. Manish is a professional musician and composer, singer, multi-instrumentalist, India who has learned and played since childhood Indian music and later focused in particular on sacred and devotional music like mantras, kirtan, and other types of higher music expressions from the ancient indian tradition. Beyond the spiritual value behind this music, his main focus is on the intrinsic power of sound, also known as naad yoga, which, combined with the right music, can be an incredible powerful tool to be used for the wellbeing and balance of the physical and subtle bodies – body, mind, soul.
Manish has gone through a long path as a spiritual seeker as well. He has been with Osho since he was a child until Osho left the body. Later and still today, he has been closely connected to his master Gurudev, with whom he has coordinated retreats and meditations in India under his wise guidance and inspiration. Manish himself has done many 40 days retreats and prolonged silence periods during all these years, in different places in India while following the work of his master. Although it was never Manish’ intention, his master gave him His blessings to conduct retreats, where he just passes the messages of his master, of Osho, and other wise beings from India
Music is always the strongest presence in his retreats, also used along different active and passive meditation techniques – he teaches and explains the power behind the sound, the sacred music, the texts and the melodies with beautiful and interesting stories from mystical India.Manish himself is also a hatha yoga asana instructor and he incorporates some of the yogic techniques in the way of naad yoga (yoga of sound) and pranayam (breath) as well as meditations and other deep relaxation practices like yoga nidra. He also presents the true world of Yoga, where yoga is not exercise but a lifestyle of excellence. You can find more about Manish in his biography and you can meet him in a video in youtube where he introduces himself here.
Manish is from India and he speaks in English
