Swami Dashi is a unique master of Eastern practices, who instantly became a public favorite, and then a finalist in the 17th season of the mega-popular reality show “Battle of Psychics”, held on the Russian TNT channel.
At the same time, the charismatic medium was the most secretive and mysterious participant in the project, thereby fueling even greater interest in his person. Swami Dasha's biography is shrouded in mystery. Facts about the psychic were obtained with great difficulty, while he himself writes on his official page that he does not intentionally disclose information without explaining the reasons.
Perhaps because the magician’s relatives are famous personalities, and he does not want increased attention to his family. By the way, photographs of Swami Dasha with his family and children are also difficult to find on the Internet.
Childhood and youth
Peter Smirnov, who became known by his spiritual name Swami Dashi, was born on August 22, 1967 in Leningrad (now St. Petersburg). His father, Vladimir Smirnov, a famous Russian biochemist and honored member of the Academy of the Russian Academy of Sciences, was a strict man and demanded unquestioning obedience from his son.
Nothing is known about the mother of the future medium, except that she committed suicide when Peter was still little. In the elementary grades of school, the father insisted that his son enroll in the pole vault sports section, but the boy was not particularly eager to study, and did not achieve noticeable success.
Having received his matriculation certificate, Pyotr Smirnov entered the Pedagogical Institute, where he studied for some time. Completing his studies was prevented by the desire to go to Asia, where the young man planned to study spiritual practices and the culture of working with the body in order to achieve enlightenment.
Feeling the need for enlightenment, Swami Dashi went to Asia and then to India
Spiritual growth and extrasensory perception
Starting from Asia, Peter Smirnov gradually reached the “country of elephants”, where in total he spent about twenty years in the Osho ashram. There, the persistent practitioner achieved deep knowledge of Neo-Sufism, was initiated into the Naqshbandi order and received a spiritual name that completely sounds like Swami Bodhi Dashi. He was a student of Osho, zealously engaged in spiritual practices, and after a while he appeared completely renewed before the world.
“Swami” (Sanskrit: स्वामी) also denotes the title of Peter Smirnov, which is considered honorary in Hinduism. It is assigned to people who are “free from feelings” and “in control of themselves.” The full name of Swami Bodhi Dashi is translated from Sanskrit as “owner of happiness and prosperity.”
Upon returning home, the young man did not stop there, but continued his personal development, delved into the philosophical and spiritual teachings of the cultures of the Western world, which radically changed his worldview.
Over the years, Swami Dashi has developed his own unique practice, harmoniously combining the leading approaches of Western and Eastern cultures. Having achieved extraordinary skill, Peter Smirnov found ways to transform consciousness through body-oriented practices and meditation.
The basis of the created methodology is the trinity of Spirit-Soul-Body. In his personal developments, Swami Dashi emphasized balancing physical, mental and spiritual activities, ideally complementing each other and providing a high synergistic effect.
Having acquired knowledge, Swami Dashi created several centers where he helps those who want to discover themselves and their limitless possibilities
Immersion in one’s own inner world, yoga, Osho’s bodily pulsations, acupressure – he teaches all this with special dedication to those who want to discover themselves new to this light. At the same time, despite his striking victories in the “Battle of Psychics,” Swami Dashi never talks about himself as a psychic, at least in the usual sense of the word mentioned.
The mysterious mystic does not cast spells, does not remove damage, does not get rid of the evil eye, and claims that there were no such craftsmen in his family. At the same time, Swami Dashi highly values the experience, wisdom and subtle understanding of spiritual and life principles accumulated over decades, since he adopted them from great people, mastering knowledge gradually, grain by grain. To participate in the project that took place on TNT, Swami Dasha’s qualities were more than acceptable, which led him to the casting.

Swami Dashi in the “Battle of Psychics”
The arrival of Swami Dasha in 2021 for the 17th season of the television project “Battle of Psychics” immediately ensured his widest fame. In the first episode, the master of Western-Eastern practices gave such a professional massage to the finalist of the 9th season that he charmed the audience from the first minutes of his participation.
The next task was to find out in the trunk of which car the person was hidden, which Swami Dashi completed almost instantly. With unmistakable assumptions, the psychic unbalanced the famous person who played the role of Miss X, Nastasya Samburskaya.
Swami Dashi captivated the audience with his abilities at the “Battle of Psychics” and received the coveted “Blue Hand”
Swami Bodhi Dashi clearly defined the internal deep connection between the actress and her father, which haunted the girl for many years. Nastasya Samburskaya was indignant at the magician’s statements, saying that he presented information provided on the Internet.
Although she confirmed that she did not want to hear anything about her father or contact him. The actress's father was imprisoned when the girl was about five years old. Then Swami Dashi said that in heaven, “the souls of children have lined up with Nastasya Samburskaya, and the actress will soon need to fulfill her main purpose - to become a mother.”
In the 2nd issue of the project, six girls appeared before the psychic, and it was necessary to find out which of them was carrying a child from a particular man. Swami Dashi, upon starting the test, instantly realized that one of the young women presented was not pregnant.
Then the clever magician managed to find out the fate of the main character, thereby making the woman cry. The test during the trip to Obninsk was no less exciting. The participants were expected there by the relatives of Masha Odd, who tragically died several months ago.
Swami Bodhi Dashi did not pick up the murder weapon, but described it in great detail. The magician invited the mother of the deceased to contact her daughter. Swami Dashi found out that the girl was killed by a sick maniac who had previously been tracking her for a whole week.
In the 17th season, Swami Dashi became the first owner of the white envelope. The jury recognized him as the best among the issue. In an interview with Swami Bodhi Dashi, he said that he dedicated his victory to his wife and children.
Test at the “Battle of Psychics”
In the 3rd issue, the psychic had to find a way out of a building with hiding snipers. Swami Dashi began the task very warily, but thanks to his own technique he felt where the arrows were located.
The psychic easily bypassed the snipers and even learned personal facts about each of the military men. TV viewers and direct observers of his skills were shocked; no one could even expect such an unheard-of result from this most difficult test.
4 psychics made it to the finals of the 17th season: Swami Dashi, Daria Voskoboeva, Marilyn Kerro and Nadezhda Shevchenko. The winner this time was Swami Dashi - almost 721 thousand people voted for him (a record number at that time). The psychic also won the coveted prize – the “Blue Hand”.
2 years later, in 2018, Swami Dashi took part in the 7th season of the television project “Psychics. Battle of the strongest." He didn’t miss the program the next year either, where he was one of the most notable competitors.
How to get an appointment with Swami Dashi?
After the end of season 17 of the show, many people asked this question. For those who are interested in how to find the psychic Dasha, there are several options to contact the administrator: his official website and profiles on social networks, but just keep in mind that they must be verified. You can sign up for an individual session, a seminar, or for group classes that Swami conducts in different parts of Russia. People who want to know how to contact psychic Dasha should keep in mind that many scammers are trying to make money by selling seats for non-existent sessions.
Personal life
Swami Bodhi Dashi tries not to talk about his own private life - he doesn’t post anything on his pages on social networks and prefers to avoid answering such questions in interviews. But we still managed to find out something about the master of spiritual and physical practices.
Today it is known that Swami Dashi was married, more than once. There is no information about who his first wife was and what she did, but from this marriage the man has a son, Roman Smirnov, who was born in 1984. The guy is a professional track and field athlete and represented the Russian team at the Beijing Olympics in 2008.
Swami Dashi with family
In 2009, Roman Smirnov became the Universiade Champion in the relay race, and more than once proved his skills by receiving prizes at championships. Swami Dasha's son holds the title of Master of Sports of Russia. Roman Smirnov recently left big sport. He is married and has a son, so Swami Dasha already has a grandson.
Relatives do not think that their son and grandson may have supernatural abilities - after all, Swami Dashi developed and honed this skill for a long time. The second wife of the psychic who conquered the country is Irina Nogina-Chernyshova (born 1980). The woman is a master of sports in rhythmic gymnastics, currently working as a Pilates and stretching coach.
There are three children in this marriage - a daughter and two sons, and some information sources write that Irina gave birth to children at home, without resorting to medical help. According to her, at home Swami Dashi is very democratic and does not impose a personal worldview, while his wife Irina supports him in everything, and the children are given complete freedom of action.

Biography of Swami Dasha
Winner of “Battle of Psychics - 17”
born in Kazakhstan on August 22, 1960.
At birth he was given the name Peter. And he received his middle name, Dashi
, at a more mature age. In fact, it is very difficult to find out about the mysterious practice, since he prefers to keep his personal life secret. It is known that at a young age he and his parents moved to St. Petersburg, where he now lives. Dasha’s father, Vladimir Smirnov, is a well-known biochemist in Russia and academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences. There is no special information about the mother. The only thing that is known is that the woman committed suicide when Peter was 20 years old.
At a young age, at that time still Pyotr Smirnov, he decided to go to India and spent twenty years of his life studying Eastern practices. He decided to part with his previous image of a “new Russian” and with each year of study, his attitude towards everything that existed changed.
He studied with OSHO himself, who gave him his current name. And Swami
is a certain title given to those who have mastered the skill of Yogi.
It is translated as “freed from feelings.” Perhaps Dashi
became one of the last students of OSHO, because he died in the 90s. After the death of his teacher, the winner of the Battle of Psychics did not immediately return to his homeland, but continued to study other mystical practices while traveling around Asian countries. In one of his interviews, he talked about meeting Filipino healers who perform operations without using any instruments.
Dashi studied
(Peter) at the Pedagogical Institute, but did not finish it, because he went to India. He never regretted his decision to leave college.
Path to glory
Before coming to the 17th season of the Battle of Psychics project
,
Dashi
was already famous.
For more than ten years, he has been conducting various trainings and seminars, about which participants respond only positively. Also, Dashi became one of the first people who brought sacred knowledge to Russia and began to use it. His therapeutic massage managed to help more than one person, but it is not cheap, about 10 thousand rubles. Also, there are several Meditation centers founded by Swami Dashi
.
But the man’s greatest popularity came from his participation in the Battle, because it was there that he was able to show all his strength and power. Unlike other participants, Dasha
did not use any additional attributes (except for his pendant with a stone, which, according to him, contains his own soul). All of his power is based on energy, not black or white magic.
Personal life of Swami Dasha
The practitioner’s personal life is fine. He was married twice and with his current wife, 36-year-old Irina Nogina, has two sons and a daughter. From her first marriage, Dasha also has a son - Roman Smirnov, who is 35 years old. Dasha's wife
, Irina strongly supports her husband in his endeavors and is a personal administrator. The woman herself is a certified Pilates and fitness trainer.
But with Dasha’s
has not communicated for many years, because they do not support his passion for Eastern practice. Their relationship deteriorated when Peter dropped out of university, and soon his mother died.
