Homeless of Katmandu
Rahul Bharti is an accomplished Nuad Phaen Boran teacher who lives in Kathmandu, Nepal. While he is famous worldwide for his teaching and practice of Thai Massage through The Healing Hands Centre that he founded, it is his humanitarian work for the homeless in Kathmandu that is extraordinary.
Rahul Bharti’s gentle, enlightened approach to healing the world is obvious to anyone who has the opportunity to spend even a minute in his presence. Rahul does not accept blind monetary donations to his cause. He feels, rightly so, that too many of us throw money at a problem and feel we have done all that we can. Rahul believes the only way to sustain lasting change is to get a personal, visceral commitment from people. People need to experience first hand what a difference their donations and actions can create in order for the decisions they make on a daily basis to become mindful, and as such consistently reflect the change they want to see in the world.
Rahul Bhati is a master at his craft and accordingly can chose to live anywhere in the world in a life of luxury. His heritage resides in India, his family is European, and he chooses to live a simple life in Nepal, helping clothe, feed, and heal the homeless.
Through our Benevolent Foundation, Silent River Kung Fu has helped Rahul fund mass feedings in Kathmandu, provide eye surgeries in India, and supply masks and pandemic support for the impoverished of Nepal.
