But it helped him realize that Radhi, who would one day become his wife, yearned for a more simple and authentic mode of connection — qualities he knew well from his time in the ashram.Today on “Modern Love,” Shetty shares how anyone can bring the lessons of monkhood into dating and love — even if you’ve never stepped foot in an ashram.
