Nitesh Gor | Harvard Bhakti Yoga Conference | Episode 119
Spirituality became central to NiteshGor’s life when, as a teenager, he founded a youth movement to campaign against the UK government’s proposed forced closure of Bhaktivedanta Manor, a temple outside London that was purchased and gifted by George Harrison.
Nitesh went on to create Avanti Schools Trust, a government-funded network of schools in the UK rooted in spirituality.
He co-created the world’s first equity index rooted in dharmic values, the Dow Jones Dharma Index, and now the Dharma Endowment Fund.
He has helped establish numerous spiritual initiatives, from a 75-acre retreat centre in Lincolnshire to a vibrant restaurant and wellbeing hub in London.
He has authored two books (Dharma of Capitalism, published in 2010 by Kogan Page, and Before Religion, being republished by Harper Collins in 2025) and received an OBE from the late Queen for his services to education.
Title of Session: Yoga Philosophy: The Indispensable Role of Bhakti Yoga in Education & Society, and the Dangers of its Exclusion
