Swami Chetanananda

1948 -

Born in the Midwest, Swami Chetanananda (also known as “Swamiji”) was raised in Indiana and attended Indiana University. He is an American spiritual teacher, author, and highly accomplished practitioner of kundalini meditation and tantric sadhana who has spent his life assimilating the great tantric traditions into a new non-dual model of understanding the nature of reality. In the process, he has developed an approach to spiritual work that anyone can practice in the context of everyday life.

Swamiji’s teaching draws from his study of kundalini yoga, Śakta Śaivism, Śrī Vidyā, Vajrayana tantrism, osteopathy, quantum physics, and neuroscience. He teaches that consciousness is in eternal union with respiratory process, which he calls the Breath of Life, and that it can be experienced through contact, alignment and flow with the creative energy. In his view, everything that exists is a manifestation of the Breath of Life: alive, divine and permeated by beauty.

Swamiji is fiercely dedicated to unearthing the most authentic teachings of ancient traditions and mining their essence. He teaches practical techniques for working with creative energy to help students unfold their highest potential to realize what he calls an “unimaginable possibility.”
