Sadanira: A cinematic masterpiece where rivers become India's eternal storytellers
At the heart of this visual odyssey is Devrishi, formerly known in the film industry as music composer Rishikesh Pandey, now reborn as a spiritual storyteller and creative visionar read more What if rivers could speak? What if the ancient waters that bore witness to empires, epics, and evolution could narrate their own tale? That poetic question finds its answer in Sadanira — a pathbreaking new documentary series that blends cinematic brilliance with cultural philosophy, science, and soul. Officially launched on June 20th at Bhopal's prestigious Bharat Bhavan during the Jal-Ganga Samvardhan Abhiyan, the series was unveiled by Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav in the presence of artists, thinkers, and conservationists. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD At the heart of this visual odyssey is Devrishi, formerly known in the film industry as music composer Rishikesh Pandey, now reborn as a spiritual storyteller and creative visionary. It was Devrishi who handed over the series' first poster to the Chief Minister in a symbolic gesture — marking the beginning of a cinematic and cultural movement. Produced under the banner of Veer Bharat Nyas and Sanatan Wisdom Foundation, Sadanira is far more than a documentary. It's a weekly cinematic pilgrimage — one that reimagines India's rivers not as backdrops, but as the central characters in the country's epic. The opening episode is already generating buzz for its ambitious fusion of Vedic cosmology and astrophysics — tracing the origins of the universe from the primordial sound of Om to the scientific mechanics of cosmic dust, hydrogen fusion, and comet-borne water. In doing so, Sadanira creates what Devrishi calls 'mytho-science' — a seamless blend of myth and modernity. Each river — be it the sacred Ganga, the mysterious Saraswati, or the ancient Drishadvati — is treated not just as geography but as a sentient storyteller. Shot in ultra-high definition, the series captures the soul of Indian rivers with unmatched emotional and spiritual depth. According to the creators, this is only Phase 1. Over 100 rivers, including endangered ones like Tamraparni and Drishadvati, are set to be featured in future seasons. 'This is not just a series,' says Devrishi. 'It's a cultural renaissance. A call to remember who we are, through the rivers that shaped us.' STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD

Scientific Study on Mantra and Sonic Therapy Begins at NYRI: Devrishi Named Principal Advisor
A new scientific research programme has been launched under the Nada Yoga Research Institute (NYRI) to investigate the effects of mantra frequencies and sound resonance on human health. The institute, operating under the Sanatan Wisdom Foundation, aims to explore the intersection of ancient Vedic sonic systems and modern biomedical science. The initiative is being guided by Devrishi, an Indian philosopher and spiritual researcher, who was formerly active in the Indian film industry as a music composer and filmmaker under his birth name, Rishikesh Pandey. Having stepped away from mainstream cinema, he transitioned into the study of consciousness and Vedic sound, and adopted the name Devrishi to reflect this shift. He now serves as the Principal Research Advisor to NYRI. The core objective of NYRI's research is to study how specific mantra vibrations, when uttered with accurate frequency and pronunciation, affect various systems within the body. The institute will use modern scientific instruments to analyze biometric responses—such as heart rate variability, neural activity, and emotional stability—during controlled mantra exposure. The research is being conducted in collaboration with a multidisciplinary team including medical doctors, neuroscientists, sound engineers, and Sanskrit scholars. The institute plans to engage with premier institutions such as AIIMS, IITs, and government bodies including the Ministry of AYUSH and Ministry of Health and Family Welfare. NYRI also intends to publish its findings for review by global organizations like the World Health Organization (WHO) and UNESCO, in alignment with international standards for integrative medicine. To bridge laboratory research with real-world application, Nada Yoga Research Institute will organize Nyri Sonic Retreats—guided therapy programmes where participants experience sound-based healing in monitored settings. These sessions will also generate live observational data to support further research. On June 21, 2025, the institute will conduct a special experimental event titled 'Nada Yagya', featuring 51 trained Vedic scholars chanting in unison. The event will be studied using biomedical tools to measure group resonance and its impact on human physiology. A detailed report will be prepared and shared with both domestic and international institutions. This effort reflects a growing interest in evidence-based approaches to ancient practices. Rather than promoting spiritual belief, the NYRI initiative seeks to establish a research-driven foundation for sound therapy, using measurable parameters and scientific validation.
