Suchitra teaches from the discourses of the Buddha, with an emphasis on practice in daily life. She does so in Bodhgaya and Hyderabad, and online.

Along with public speaking, Suchitra has interviewed three luminaries in the Indian social sector (Drs. Abhay and Rani Bang, and Dr Ravi Chopra), for the podcast Grassroots Nation of the Rohini Nilekani Philanthropies. Her pro-bono work includes advising non-profit organizations on strategy. When not at her desk, Suchitra enjoys being with trees and peering through binoculars to learn about birds. She holds degrees from Brandeis University and the London School of Economics.

AUTHOR Q & A

Q: What drew you to Moy Moy’s story, and why did you feel it needed to be told now?
SS: I'm drawn to true-life stories that deserve the spotlight. Jo and Ravi's life, the circle of love around Moy Moy, and Latika, the joy-filled organization for disabled children that Jo built, clearly fall into that category of hidden gems. There is beauty, nation-building, empowerment, hard work and much more. How could I not write this book?!
