Paramahamsa Nithyananda is an enlightened master and modern mystic amidst us today. He is on a mission to re-establish the science of inner bliss on planet Earth.
Born in Arunachala, South India, Paramahamsa demonstrated a strong and unswerving passion for Realization of the Self even as a child. He immersed himself in daily meditation and sought the company of enlightened masters and teachers.
Paramahamsa's meditation practices led to his first deep spiritual experience at age 12, which profoundly changed his life. In his own words, "It was an experience of utter bliss, serene calmness and connectedness with the Universe. I could see in a panoramic vision encompassing all 360 degrees around me, with my eyes closed. Further, I had a vivid experience of being everywhere, in the rocks, in the trees... everywhere! Just as we feel alive inside our own skin, I felt alive in the entire Cosmos."
Paramahamsa left home at age 17 and embarked on an arduous journey towards Self-realization. Wandering across the length and breadth of India and Nepal and covering thousands of miles, mostly by foot, he studied Yoga, Tantra and other Eastern metaphysical Sciences and had many profound spiritual experiences through practice of intense austerities.
After years of study and deep meditation, Paramahamsa attained the state of Eternal Bliss. Today, Paramahamsa is an inspiring personality for millions of people worldwide. From his own experience, he has formulated a Technology of Bliss to explode the Individual consciousness, to awaken man to the divinity and bliss within.
He has developed a diverse range of meditation programs devised for the modern man. Scores of people around the world have experienced radical transformation in short periods of time.
To restore balance to body, mind and spirit, and to give the tools to live a creative and productive life guided by intuition and intelligence rather than instinct, Paramahamsa has created programs that allow one to fall into the natural space known as meditation. He says, 'Meditation is the master key that can bring success in the material world and deep fulfillment in your space within.'
The profound techniques and processes that comprise the meditation programs help the flowering and explosion of individual consciousness. They are offered by ordained teachers, or acharyas, trained personally by Paramahamsa. Advanced level programs are conducted by Paramahamsa himself, and are a rare and unprecedented opportunity to be in the presence of the Master; to experience the deep stillness, silence and ecstasy of our inner being.
