Engagement
Aurakosha · SWS Community
Aurakosha — the studio's managed, white-label streaming platform for communities — in private beta with its first deployment: Satsang with Swamiji, the SWS Community led by Sushant Krishnan. Public launch August 2026.
The work
Aurakosha is the studio's first product engagement, and the SWS Community is its first deployment. A managed platform that gives a serious community a Spotify-grade audio and video experience on its own brand, without asking the community to run an engineering team to get it.
The situation
What walked in.
The SWS Sangha — a global community of devotees around Sushant Krishnan — had the archive but not the surface. Guruji's bhajans, mantras, satsangs, writings, and gatherings lived scattered across YouTube, WhatsApp threads, and email PDFs. Members searched across silos. The administrative team had no real control over who consumed what. Third-party platforms owned the experience and the audience. A community defined by stillness and attention was being delivered through a stack designed for virality.
What we built
The shape of the system.
Aurakosha — a single managed platform across every surface, configured for SWS. One codebase, one admin panel, and four end-user surfaces: a fully branded community website at sws.community with a member area; native iOS and Android apps under the SWS name on the App Store and Google Play with compliance managed by Auralogic; and an operator admin panel driving all four surfaces from one place. Members get curated audio, video, image, and writing libraries (Altar Blossoms, Remanences, satsangs, bhajans); community posts with timestamped comments; offline downloads; background audio; and push notifications for new content and gatherings. Operators get a full CMS for all content categories and metadata, a membership-approval workflow, engagement and retention analytics, and a real-time ticket dashboard. Live streaming, YouTube sync, and signed-URL playback are on the roadmap.
