Last updated 2 months ago

After graduating from University College London (UCL), S.B. Keshava Swami embraced the life of a monk at just 21—a journey he has pursued with unwavering dedication for over two decades. Immersing himself in the study of ancient Sanskrit texts for more than 25 years, he has authored 12 books and designed over 50 transformative courses, equipping diverse audiences with timeless wisdom to deepen relationships, uncover purpose, break through inner limitations, and cultivate lasting spiritual well-being.

Keshava Swami has also leveraged the power of digital media to introduce tens of thousands to the profound insights of Eastern philosophy. As the founder of Wisdom That Breathes (www.wisdomthatbreathes.com), he has created a thriving ecosystem for spiritual exploration, personal development, and global impact. This dynamic platform brings together conscious changemakers, nurtures impactful initiatives, pioneers cutting-edge technology, and provides open-source educational resources—making ancient wisdom accessible and relevant in the modern world.

A sought-after global educator, Keshava Swami regularly delivers keynote addresses at prestigious academic institutions, Fortune 500 companies, governmental organizations, and spiritual communities. His ability to bridge ancient philosophy with contemporary challenges has positioned him as a thought leader at the forefront of modern spirituality. More than just a teacher, he is a catalyst for transformation—sharing wisdom that breathes, not as abstract theory, but as a living, practical force that shapes character, elevates consciousness, and inspires lasting change.
