About suraj nautiyal​

My Story​

I was not born into privilege, but into purpose.
From the quiet hills of Uttarakhand, where the rivers sing and the forests breathe ancient wisdom, I grew up with stories—stories of courage, of sacrifice, of dreams that defy limitations. My earliest teachers were my surroundings: the mountains taught me patience, the wind taught me resilience, and the silence taught me how to listen.
I was always drawn toward something larger than myself. As a child, I didn’t know what “leadership” or “vision” meant. I only knew that I wanted to change lives, to write truth, and to build something that would last beyond me.
Education became my ladder. Books became my first mentors. But I also learned from the streets, the people, and the rawness of real life. I made mistakes, I faced rejections—but each struggle added a chapter to the person I am today.
Over time, I found myself wearing many hats:
As an author, I found my voice in words that others needed to hear.
As a leader, I took on the responsibility to shape systems and inspire young minds.
As a yoga advocate, I saw health not just as a goal, but as a human right.
As a student of life, I kept learning, evolving, and staying curious.
When I published “The Lost of Girl,” it wasn’t just a book—it was a mirror of society, a message that needed to be told. Now, with 15 more books on the way, my mission is only growing stronger.

“If even one life changes because of my words or my work, I have fulfilled my purpose.”
This is not just my story. This is a shared journey—with readers, students, mentors, and strangers who believed in a better tomorrow.
And I’m just getting started.
