Sadhguru Early Life and Education
Jagadish Vasudev was born on 3 September 1957 in Mysore, Karnataka, India. He is the youngest of the five children of Susheela Vasudev, a homemaker, and B.V. Vasudev was a physician at the Mysore Railway Hospital. His paternal great-grandmother was Kuntamma, who he says had built a temple. His grandfather was a wealthy man with a large ancestral home.
Aged thirteen, Vasudev took yoga lessons from Malladihalli Raghavendra daily throughout his youth, albeit without spiritual aspirations.
After his schooling at Demonstration School, Mysore and Mahajana Pre-University College, Vasudev graduated from the University of Mysore with a bachelor’s degree in English, despite a spotty attendance record and an irreverent attitude to tuition. Defying his parents’ wishes, he refused to pursue a postgraduate course and took to business instead.
