The SAS Gurkha Warrior Monk: Mountain Troop Leader Krishna Thapa on Spirituality in the SAS, Finding Life's Purpose & More
Description
In this episode, Jordan sits down with warrior monk Krishna Thapa, a former Gurkha and SAS special forces operator who has dedicated his life to teaching spiritual wisdom. Krish shares how his journey from the mountains of Nepal to the battlefields of the world shaped his understanding of what it means to live with purpose, resilience, and service.
They explore the power of the five elements, earth, water, fire, air, and ether, as the foundation of a fully conscious human being. Krish explains how mastering these elements allows us to find balance between warrior discipline and spiritual peace, to know when to fight and when to be still. He speaks openly about trauma, loss, and survival, and how awareness and acknowledgment can transform even the darkest moments into growth.
At its core, this conversation is about service, legacy, and leaving behind values that endure for generations. Krish’s rare blend of elite soldiering and monkhood makes his perspective both practical and profound. If you’ve ever questioned your purpose or struggled to find peace in the noise of modern life, this is a conversation that will leave you inspired to reconnect with your inner warrior and live with greater intention.
