About Nithyananda

It was under the glow of the spiritual magnet Arunachala in the energy center of Tiruvannamalai in South India, that Nithyananda was born - as Rajasekharan, to Arunachalam and Lokanayaki on 1 January, 1978. The family astrologer predicted that he would be a king amongst holy men.

The earliest picture of Nithyananda in meditation taken when he was 10 years old
At the age of 3, Nithyananda was associated with Yogiraj Raghupati Maharaj, a yoga guru who took him through rigorous training and prepared his body, with apparent foresight into the energy explosion that was going to happen in the young body. From the age of 5, Nithyananda took to deity worship with great passion. He showed profound commitment to the rituals he practiced with the deities. Just a few years later, he came in touch with Mataji Vibhudhananda, a deeply pious lady who initiated him into Vedanta and Tantra and started his scriptural learning at that young age. Encountering many mystics from the town of Tiruvannamalai, he received esoteric teachings from them.
At the age of 12, he had his first deep spiritual experience: while sitting on a rock on the Arunachala hillock, he suddenly had a 360 degree panoramic vision, and experienced becoming one with everything around him. This experience further inspired him to forge ahead in his journey inwards.

Academics at school and
polytechnic came naturally for
Nithyananda. With only the
attention he gave in classes, he
passed all his grades with
distinction. He obtained a diploma

degree in Mechanical Engineering
from a leading private Polytechnic
in Tamilnadu. At the age of 17,
he left home driven by the
irresistible urge to jump into the
real life that he was seeking. He
wandered through the length and
breadth of India studying Eastern
metaphysical sciences and meeting
many masters and mystics. He
visited many great shrines, ranging
from the Himalayas in the North,
to Kanyakumari in the South,
from Dwaraka in the West to Ganga Sagar in the East. After enduring intense meditation and other austerities, he attained eternal inner bliss…the state of nithyananda.
Guided by Divine Vision, on January 1ˢᵗ 2003, Parahamamsa set up his mission headquarters in Bangalore, India, in the land of mystical and sacred banyan tree.
