Shashwad Babalgaon is an Indian author, independent music artist, martial arts practitioner, and creative philosopher from Solapur, Maharashtra, with roots in Lachyan, Karnataka. Writing under the contemplative persona of Kapi, his work reflects on the theatre of human existence through satire, simplicity, and inward inquiry.

Rooted in Indian spiritual traditions, his outlook is inspired by the teachings of the 17th-century saint Samarth Ramdas and the martial philosophy of Bruce Lee, treating philosophy as lived practice rather than belief. He is the author of The Way of Flow and Flowstate, and the founder of Reflections of Kapi, where spiritual insight and social observation meet in concise, symbolic reflections.
