Guru Risi SriVaso

"Fitness for the witness, alignment to enlightenment."

Risi SriVaso is a visionary Yoga master, Sanskrit scholar, and lifelong disciple of the enlightened master Osho. Born into a traditional Hindu family deeply rooted in the systems of Tantra and Yoga, Risi began his spiritual studies at an early age—learning Sanskrit, studying sacred scriptures, and immersing himself in Ashram life to absorb the original essence of Yogic wisdom.

Over the years, he studied under some of the most respected teachers of our time, including B.K.S. Iyengar, K. Pattabhi Jois, and J. Krishnamurti. His time with Iyengar was especially formative, even assisting in medical therapy classes led by Iyengar himself. Under Krishnamurti’s influence, Risi developed a profound understanding of the nature of thought, silence, and awareness.

In 2013, following Iyengar’s personal encouragement, Risi founded MYT Yoga School in India and later Ojas Vedic Academy in Bali. His vision is to unify Mantra, Yantra, and Tantra, offering students a holistic path that bridges the ancient with the modern.

Having translated multiple works from Osho into Sanskrit, Risi carries the torch of his teachers through an approach that is both rooted in tradition and alive with transformative energy. His journey was profoundly shaped by his years in Osho’s Ashram, where the practice of “Work as Meditation” catalyzed a deep energetic awakening. Risi describes it as a full rewiring of the physical and energetic system into a state of inner ecstasy.

Today, Risi continues to share his teachings across the globe through teacher trainings, retreats, and the growing network of Yoga schools led by his students worldwide.
