Join us on an enlightening journey with Nitesh Gor, the visionary founder and CEO of Avanti Schools Trust, as he shares the transformative story of creating the UK’s first state-funded Hindu school. Our conversation unravels the unique vision behind this educational venture, where spirituality is seamlessly woven into the fabric of learning. Nitesh illuminates the children’s pivotal role in the design process, highlighting their natural gravitation towards spirituality, which led to the creation of a captivating school environment centred around a visible shrine.
We explore how spiritual insights can be integrated into non-faith-based schools, considering the balance needed to create a shared understanding of spirituality among diverse backgrounds. This conversation highlights the potential for spirituality to enrich secular discussions and promote equality and stronger connections.
As we reflect on personal journeys and legacies, Nitesh candidly shares his own path of prioritising health and spirituality. He offers valuable insights on the shifting values in life, where spiritual fulfilment gradually overshadows material pursuits. The episode concludes with a powerful message on acceptance and non-judgement, urging listeners to embrace diverse life choices and acknowledge the unique paths of others. This thought-provoking conversation invites you to consider the profound role spirituality can play in education, personal development, and fostering a more compassionate and understanding world.
