Meet Naga Rishi Giri
A Himalayan Master
Naga Rishi Giri, known as Shiva Rako, is a revered Naga Sadhu initiated into the historic Juna Akhada at the Mahakumbh in Prayagraj. Born in Kerala, he embraced monastic life as a teenager in Shivagiri and later undertook Himalayan pilgrimages, studying with enlightened masters. Trained seven years under His Holiness Swami Veda Bharathi, he mastered yoga, meditation, and Vedantic philosophy. Today Shiva Rako teaches timeless practices that blend ascetic discipline and spiritual insight, guiding seekers across India and beyond.
