देवऋषि
Indian Philosopher · Spiritual Researcher · Author · Composer. The guiding inspiration behind SADHNAM and its Sonic Philosophy.
Devrishi (born Rishikesh Pandey; 16 May 1992) is an Indian philosopher, spiritual composer and author, known for his work in devotional music and the revival of Indian sonic philosophy.
In January 2025 he adopted the name Devrishi and dedicated himself to the research and dissemination of Vedic sound science and spirituality. His work moves across research, music, writing and teaching, with one continuous thread: sound as a path of knowledge, where mantra, music and consciousness meet.
As the founder-inspiration of Sanatan Wisdom, Devrishi leads research initiatives including the Shri Krishna Pathey Project with the Government of Madhya Pradesh, documenting the temples, routes, scriptures and living heritage of Bhagwan Shri Krishna. His fields of inquiry include Indian Sonic Philosophy, sacred geography, consciousness studies and Vedic knowledge systems.
SADHNAM's retreats and practices are shaped by his Sonic Philosophy: the study of how sacred sound affects mental health and inner wellbeing, and how the journey from nada (sound) through mauna (silence) leads to the recognition of the Self.
"Where sound becomes silence, knowledge begins." Devrishi
