Ajay Chaturvedi
He Who Wrote the First Book, Hadn't Read a Book!
Be that Man. Every Moment.
- Ajay Chaturvedi (Lost Wisdom of the Swastika)Honoured by the World Economic Forum as a Young Global Leader, Ajay Chaturvedi, is a former investment banker in the US. An alumni of BITS Pilani and of the School of Engineering & The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. He also holds a Diploma in Global Leadership & Public Policy from The Harvard Kennedy School of Government.
Some minds don't just follow paths; they carve entirely new ones. Ajay Chaturvedi is one such mind - an entrepreneur shaped by ancient wisdom, a philosopher with the mind of a strategist, and an author who unearths the truths hidden in plain sight
Honoured by the World Economic Forum as a Young Global Leader, Ajay defies conventional labels. A former investment banker who left the corridors of high finance for the call of the Himalayas, his journey led him to Kedarnath, where a profound encounter with his Guru changed everything. That moment of awakening now flows through his work - his ventures, his teachings, and most strikingly, his books.
The Books That Challenge the Way You Think
Ajay's bestselling book, Lost Wisdom of the Swastika, isn't just a read - it's an exploration. A rediscovery of ancient truths that modern minds have forgotten. It's no surprise that the book has been adopted by leading business schools, now taught as Kullhad Economy, redefining how strategy is understood. Not just another business book, but a map to a world where production matters more than mindless consumption.And this is just the beginning. The Time Trilogy, his most ambitious work yet, peels back the layers of history, time, and existence itself - revealing connections most of us never see, but have always felt. The third book, said to be the most evocative, is on the horizon.
If you've ever sensed that the world's narratives don't add up, that there's something deeper waiting to be uncovered - Ajay's books might just be what you've been looking for.
A Mind That Moves Economies
Ajay's work isn't theory - it's action. As the founder of HarVa XPO, the world's first all-women rural BPO, he proved that real change doesn't need permission. Recognized by Fast Company as one of India's most innovative companies, HarVa stands as a testament to what happens when ancient wisdom meets modern challenges.An alumnus of BITS Pilani, the School of Engineering & the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, and some of the world's leading institutions, Ajay is an engineer, a visionary strategist, and a Jyotisa Pandita steeped in ancient wisdom. With a deep understanding of finance and strategy, he navigates seamlessly between the spheres of business, philosophy, and leadership - recognizing the profound interconnection of these domains.
The Conversations That Stay With You
Ajay doesn't just speak - he shifts perspectives. His talks don't end when the session is over; they linger, spark thoughts days later, and often change how people see the world altogether.This is why he has been recognized as a CNN IBN Young Indian Leader, Times Now's Amazing Global Indian, and a creative leader shaping the future at THNK Amsterdam. And why he is now building a Vedic Village in Uttarakhand, a live model for a future that is, paradoxically, rooted in the past.
The question isn't whether his work will make you rethink everything you know.
It's whether you're ready for it.
