When Jay Shetty graduated from college, he was prepared for two different paths in life: to work in finance, or become a Hindu monk.\n\nAfter three years at an ashram, Jay returned home to London hoping to share his learning with the world. He had to relearn how to make small talk \u2014 and how to flirt. He had his eye on someone special: a down-to-earth woman named Radhi.\n\nTheir first date was a disaster. But it helped him realize that Radhi, who would one day become his wife, yearned for a more simple and authentic mode of connection \u2014 qualities he knew well from his time in the ashram.\n\nToday on \u201cModern Love,\u201d Jay shares how anyone can bring the lessons of monkhood into dating and love \u2014 even if you\u2019ve never stepped foot in an ashram.
