Early Life & Education

Jagadish Vasudev, popularly known as Sadhguru, was born on September 3, 1957, in Mysore, India.

He grew up in a Telugu family as the youngest of five children. His father, B.V. Vasudev, worked as an ophthalmologist at the Mysuru Railway Hospital, while his mother, Susheela Vasudev, was a homemaker. Sadhguru’s early years were spent in Mysore, where he developed a love for literature and poetry.

After completing his formal education, Sadhguru enrolled at the University of Mysore, where he studied English literature.

Despite excelling in his studies and receiving the second rank, he decided to pursue a business career instead of continuing his education with postgraduate studies.

His entrepreneurial journey began with a poultry farm, which he started in Mysore. However, his spiritual experiences and a growing interest in yoga led him to shut down his businesses and embark on a path of self-discovery and teaching.

Through the Isha Foundation, Sadhguru established an ashram and yoga center known as the Isha Yoga Center in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu.

The foundation runs various programs and initiatives focused on spiritual growth, environmental conservation, and education.

Sadhguru has authored several books, including the New York Times bestsellers “Inner Engineering: A Yogi’s Guide to Joy” and “Karma: A Yogi’s Guide to Crafting Your Destiny.”
