Paramahamsa Satyananda

A foremost disciple of Bhumandaleshwar Swami Sivananda Saraswati of Rishikesh, Sri Swami Satyananda Saraswati initiated a worldwide yogic revolution from Munger, following the mandate of his guru. Munger, Bihar, became his karmabhoomi and the flag of the Bihar Yoga tradition was hoisted across the whole world. Munger forever acquired a special place on the world-map through his sankalpa of yoga.

Thereafter, he took kshetra sannyasa and left his karmabhoomi, Munger. He travelled to various awakened pilgrimages of India and then, following a divine command, came to Rikhia where he performed higher vedic sadhanas. The fruits of his sadhana began to be distributed in the form of peace, prosperity and happiness for all in the entire region. The village of Rikhia was transformed to Rikhiapeeth and the mandate of serve, love and give resounded throughout the world.

The preceptor of Bihar School of Yoga, Munger, and Rikhiapeeth, Deoghar, following the unbroken tradition of realized yogis, entered into Mahasamadhi at ajeya muhurta, on the midnight of 5th December, 2009 and assumed eternal consciousness.

On this occasion of the Mahayoga Samadhi of Vishwayogi Sri Swami Satyananda Saraswati, a Shodashi (16-day) program was organized at his tapobhoomi, Rikhiapeeth. The samashti bhandara was held on 22nd December, 2009.

After the Shodashi program, a Shraddhanjali Saptah, homage week, was held in his karmabhoomi, Munger, at Ganga Darshan Yogashram, from 24th to 30th December, 2009.

You are most welcome to have darshan of Sri Swamiji's karmabhoomi, tapobhoomi and samadhi sthal along with your friends and family, and receive Swami Satyananda Saraswati's auspicious blessings of peace, prosperity and happiness.
