    About

    Everything you can do intellectually will be meaningless in another 5 to 15 years.

    That’s not a prediction from a tech CEO. It’s from Sadhguru, a yogi who has been saying this for years. And he’s right.

    Machines are getting better than humans at everything built from memory, analysis, and accumulated knowledge. That’s most of what education trains you for. Most of what careers are built on. Most of what people identify with.

    The question is not whether AI will outperform your intellect. It will. The question is: what else do you have?

    The Part AI Cannot Touch

    In the yogic tradition, human intelligence has 16 dimensions. Intellect is only one of them. The one dimension that matters most now is called chitta: intelligence without the burden of memory. Not analysis. Not accumulated knowledge. Something deeper that most people never consciously develop.

    This is not philosophy. It’s survival strategy. If your only tool is your intellect, you are competing with machines that don’t sleep, don’t forget, and improve every week.

    But if you have access to dimensions of intelligence that no machine can replicate, AI becomes your most powerful ally instead of your replacement.

    What From AI to Chitta Is

    Sadhguru sometimes uses the expression “extra ordinary” to describe what a human being can become. Not extraordinary in the way people usually mean it. Extra ordinary. Extraordinarily ordinary. Nothing to prove, nothing to protect, completely transparent.

    That is what I am trying to be here. This platform is an experiment: what happens when a completely ordinary person combines a daily yoga practice with serious AI tools, and shares the process honestly?

    I am not an expert in yoga. I am not an expert in AI. I am someone doing both, paying attention, and writing down what I find.

    I have not figured anything out. I have arrived at a point where I know I know nothing, and I have stopped pretending otherwise. Sadhguru has given me tools. My only job is to use them.

    What You Get Here

    An honest account of the experiment. Not advice from someone who has it all together. Notes from someone who is trying things, failing at some, learning from others.

    Tools and workflows that work. Actual setups, automations, and pipelines built with Claude Code. The kind of thing that turns one person into a team. Shared openly, because the automation itself is part of the story.

    Practice & life reflections. What daily Sadhana looks like alongside intensive AI work. How they reinforce each other. Where they conflict. Honest, not idealized.

    Curated AI developments. Filtered through the From AI to Chitta lens: only what connects to the deeper question of human relevance in the AI era.

    Who This Is For

    Regular people who want to explore their potential. That is the experiment.

    If you are an experienced developer who lives in AI tools all day, you probably won’t find much new here. If you are an advanced Isha practitioner who has done every program they offer, the same. This is not for specialists.

    This is for people who sense that something important is happening with AI, who feel drawn to inner development but haven’t gone deep, or who are doing bits of both but haven’t connected them. People who want to see what one ordinary person can do when they take both seriously.

    Who I Am

    Kjell Tore Guttormsen. 60 years old, based near Oslo, Norway.

    I got interested in yoga as a teenager and went to my first course at 21. I have been practicing in various traditions since. In 2017, I encountered Sadhguru, and the direction became clear. I now practice daily within the Isha tradition.

    I have not unlocked my potential in life. Not even close. After decades of seeking, what I have arrived at is simple: I know nothing. I cannot explain logically why I do what I do. The intellectual ambition to understand everything has given way to something I can only call surrender. I have no expectations for what comes out of any of this. Sadhguru has given me several tools through the Isha tradition. My job is to use them. Every day. That is all.

    I don’t believe in anything. I want to know. Gradually, I am setting aside all my preconceived opinions and ready-made solutions. Instead of arriving at situations with answers already formed, I would rather move toward seeing what is actually the right thing to do, right here, right now. “I do not know” is not a failure. It is the most honest place I have found.

    My relationship to Sadhguru is simple. I do not believe him. I do not disbelieve him either. Belief means you have already decided without knowing. Disbelief is the same thing in reverse. What I have found is that if you exercise your own consciousness honestly, something else becomes possible. Surrender was not a decision I made. It happened when I stopped needing to figure everything out first. I am not a follower. I am not a skeptic. I am simply available.

    On the AI side, my master’s thesis explored artificial intelligence over 30 years ago. In early 2026, I took on a role as AI advisor. I build things with Claude Code every day. This platform is one of them. But none of that is the point. The point is that I am an ordinary person doing two things and sharing what happens.

    What This Is Not

    Not a spiritual blog that mentions AI occasionally. Not an AI blog with a wellness angle. Not a course, a community, or a movement.

    Nothing gets recommended here that I don’t practice or use myself.

    Dharma comes from the Sanskrit root dhri: to sustain, to uphold. Alignment with your deepest nature.

    Lab means experimenting. Learning in the open.

    Do the Sadhana. Let whatever comes, come. This platform documents that process.
