Rishi Giri aka Shiva Rako is a Naga Sadhu (ascetics) who received his initiation under Juna Akhada in Mahakumbh which was held in Prayagraj,  Uttar Pradesh in 2025. Juna Akhada is one of the seven oldest, largest, and most influential Shaiva monastic orders of Naga Sadhus dedicated to Lord Shiva in India. Historically, it evolved to preserve Sanatan Dharma through spiritual and martial training, and its members are known for their asceticism and participation in rituals like the Kumbh Mela. Founded by Bhagavan Dattatreya and reorganized by Adi Shankaracharya to preserve ancient Hindu traditions and protect the faith.

Rishi Giri born in Kerala, embraced a monastic life during his teenage years in Shivagiri and then embarked on a pilgrimage in the Himalayas, where he encountered enlightened masters. Under the guidance of His Holiness Swami Veda Bharathi, Shiva Rako trained rigorously in yoga, meditation, and philosophy for seven years. Now, as a revered Naga Sadhu, he shares the timeless wisdom of Yoga, Meditation & Philosophy. With profound knowledge and experience, Shiva Rako has touched the lives of many, spreading the transformative power of Yoga & Meditation throughout India and beyond.
