In 1989, while pursuing a career in music in New York, Steven Rudolph took up a part-time teaching job to make ends meet. In his first class he had an epiphany: that he had an innate capacity to teach. Though he had no formal training, it was as if he already knew how to do it—as if he were a fish in water.

The realization led him to question his formal education that never led him to recognize this underlying ability. He began to understand that he wasn't alone; there were millions of people who had completed their education without a clear idea of who they were—what their natural capacities were and how to make career choices that aligned with their potential.

To address this problem, Steven resolved to found a school whose main aim would be to help students identify their unique talents so that after graduation, they would be able to determine the best routes to attain success both personally and professionally.

But the question was how and where.

At the invitation of a friend, Steven traveled to the Himalayas to meet with numerous scholars of ancient Eastern wisdom. Little did he know that he would spend two decades in India, and that this would be the location for the educational institution he had dreamed about.

During this time, he became fluent in Hindi, immersed himself in traditional philosophy, and eventually cracked the code of 5,000 year-old-scriptures that contained age-old secrets of personal alignment. Steven turned these learnings into the Multiple Natures System and applied them in his school as well as in other educational institutions throughout India.

It was soon apparent that anyone could benefit from Multiple Natures—regardless of nationality or age. So, in 2015 he founded Multiple Natures International to bring his human alignment tools to the world.

Today, Steven resides in Cambodia where he serves as CEO of MNI, and continues his exploration of ancient Eastern wisdom and its application to helping people become more aligned.

Rytis Jurkenas was a recent medical graduate when Lithuania gained its independence in 1991. But the opening of the country afforded him the opportunity to explore his true passions. Through his love of travel, cultures, and people, he honed an extremely rare skill of cultivating value—bringing out the best of people, possibilities, and resources. Simply put, Rytis possesses a rare talent to recognize the immense value within ideas, people, and creations, and is able to help guide and unleash potential wherever he applies his attention.

In his quest to further his knowledge of healing and Eastern thinking, Rytis attended a lecture on Multiple Natures by Steven Rudolph in Vilnius. After the talk, they spoke and realized their visions aligned: Steven's tools and framework and Rytis' ability to extract and add value was a match for exciting collaboration. In 2017, Rytis Jurkenas joined Multiple Natures International as a partner to provide expertise to the organization in the area of sales, marketing, and operations.
