Ritesh S. Nigam is an award-winning author and speaker whose life journey echoes the very struggles and triumphs of the Bhagavad Gītā. Honoured at the UK Parliament with the Excellence in Spiritual Literature & Thought Leadership Award, and celebrated as “Author of the Year” at Keble College, Oxford University, he brings timeless wisdom into the modern world with warmth, simplicity, and lived experience.

Raised in Bhopal, Bharat, in a family rooted in Sanatan spiritual values, Ritesh absorbed the rhythms of devotion and storytelling from his earliest years. But his path was not a straight road of faith. Life tested him deeply — including a brush with death and years of wrestling with mental health challenges. In those moments of doubt and darkness, he felt the same confusion Arjuna faced on the battlefield.
Out of that pain, his words began to flow.

In 2017, his Six-Word Crowdfunding book publishing story was first featured in the Reading Chronicle, marking the birth of his author journey. That simple, life-saving act of writing became his ladder out of despair. From there, he created Link Poetry, a literary genre to connect hearts and minds through short, powerful verses shared across communities and schools.

His breakthrough came through Svagītā — a transformational experience born from his dialogue with the Bhagavad Gītā. The Hindi edition touched thousands of readers in India, offering not just a translation but a lived interpretation that readers could carry into their daily lives. Now, with Svagītā (English Edition), Ritesh shares the same wisdom with a global audience seeking meaning, balance, and hope.

What makes Ritesh’s work stand out is his approach: he does not lecture, he walks beside the reader. Svagītā is not just scripture for him — it is a journey, a journal, and a conversation. He calls the act of writing reflections on the verses a way to awaken the “Arjuna within,” turning reading into practice and life into a path of freedom.

Today, Ritesh lives in England with his wife, Aditi — whose Mandala and Madhubani art graces the pages of Svagītā — and their two teenage children. As a family, they carry forward the spirit of art, culture, and spiritual inquiry as a way of life.
