Arda Yaman is a writer at the intersection of philosophy, culture, and the inner life. His work moves through essays, podcasts, and seminars, drawn to the edge where contemplation meets experience.
Arda graduated from Lycée Français Privé Saint-Joseph d'Istanbul, then studied economics at Sabancı University before leaving to pursue independent research and entrepreneurial work.
Professionally, Arda has founded and successfully exited multiple ventures across various industries, from finance to advertising, and has advised transnational enterprises.
His path has been shaped by years of immersive study across esoteric traditions and healing lineages. He has been working with Seda Bağcan for over six years on the Universal Ancient Wisdom — an ongoing field of study and practice.
He continues to hold space for both individual and collective progression. Whether through ventures or words, his commitment remains the same: to allow something essential to be remembered, something that remembers itself through us.
Arda Yaman has led dozens of seminars, hosted two podcasts, published three books, created two zines, and contributed to several respected journals.
He is currently working on two new books, a new podcast, and a publication.
