Kashi

Kashi is an experienced philosophy teacher and gifted chanter, mentored by revered Indian masters. His teachings focus on Vedanta philosophy, yoga, and the exploration of the self and the universe. Known for his soulful chanting, Kashi has the unique ability to create sacred and transformative spaces through his practice.

Kashi’s journey into philosophy and yoga began at the age of 25 when he discovered his calling in Vedanta. His path soon led him to his Guru and the Himalayas, where he immersed himself in the study of Sanskrit, Indian philosophy, and the timeless wisdom of the Upanishads. Kashi’s early years of teaching began at a Sivananda Ashram, where he shared the ancient teachings and developed his distinctive teaching style—traditional yet accessible and deeply practical.

In 2016, Kashi founded Chaitanya Tapovan, a small ashram named in honor of his Guru, in the Himalayan town of Uttarkashi. As an active member of the Sadhu community, Kashi has dedicated his life to sharing the transformative wisdom of Vedanta and yoga with students from around the world.

In early 2024, Kashi chose a new path of simplicity and spiritual exploration, letting go of titles and structures to focus on the essence of yoga and life itself. His teachings remain grounded in timeless philosophy while resonating with contemporary understanding and inquiry.
