Where Sacred Practice Meets Technology
Parham Farsi
Oakland, California
Iranian-American
For over twenty years, Parham built systems at the intersection of enterprise and innovation — architecting the kind of infrastructure that quietly powers industries. He was good at it. Very good. But something was missing.
He left to pursue ministry, healing, and the inner life. Trained as a Grof® Breathwork facilitator, ordained as a minister, and immersed in somatic practice. He didn't leave technology behind — he returned to it transformed.
Today he stands at an uncommon crossing: the rigorous mind of a systems architect and the grounded heart of a practitioner. He builds technology for communities that hold space for the full depth of human experience — and for the practitioners who serve them.
"I build technology that honors the sacred."
Each area of practice flows from the same source: a conviction that technology and consciousness are not opposites — they are partners, when approached with integrity.
Ethical, privacy-first technology. Data sovereignty for individuals and communities navigating an algorithmic world.
Founder, Technologies of the Sacred. Building infrastructure for consciousness communities — where the code serves ceremony.
Privacy-first systems, local-first architecture, practitioner-client confidentiality. The container matters as much as the work inside it.
Twenty years. Enterprise to startup, monolith to microservice. Systems that are reliable, legible, and built to last.
AI ethics, holotropic technologies, consciousness & computation. Exploring the questions that sit at the edge of both worlds.
Certified Grof® Breathwork facilitator, minister, and somatic practitioner. Serving those navigating profound inner transformation.
