What is a Rishi?

The word "Rishi" originates from the Sanskrit root 'ṛṣ', meaning "to see" or "to perceive." It signifies a profound clarity—a vision of the interconnectedness of all things.

In ancient traditions, a Rishi was a sage who possessed deep wisdom and the ability to perceive truths beyond the surface. They were the guides who helped others navigate complex realities with insight and understanding.

Today, Rishi embodies this same principle in the cannabis industry—providing the clarity, vision, and strategic guidance needed to navigate the complex landscape of cannabis business and regulation.

"To see a Rishi is more than to have luck. It is a symbol of purity, a reminder to have clarity of heart and thinking."
