Shalini Modi

I am honored to introduce Shalini Modi, a gifted writer who explores the emotional and spiritual depths of human experience, bridging Indian mythology with modern life. In Rasas in Divine Relationships, she delves into rasas—the emotions that shape our existence—drawing from the Natya Shastra and the stories of deific couples to make these timeless concepts relatable today.

Shalini’s work highlights how emotions define our relationships, society, and personal growth, encouraging individuals, especially young women, to embrace their feelings as sources of strength. Her book Immortality: A Boon or a Curse further reflects her deep engagement with thought-provoking themes.

She is an astrologer and she ran an N.G.O called Pragati Kendra, which supports underprivileged children in their education and encouraged underprivileged women to become economically independent, pre-Covid. Knowledge of Vedic astrology, mantra chanting and old scriptures enrich her writing, giving it multiple facets.  Her engaging style, unconventional approach and her effort to find symbolism in our old texts make her books interesting to read.
