Paramahamsa Satyananda Saraswati Mahasamadhi
Paramahamsa Satyananda Saraswati
Paramahamsa Satyananda Saraswati took Mahasamadhi on December 5th, 2009 in Rikhia, India. He was a great disciple of Swami Sivanananda of Rishikesh, a Guru to thousands and the founder of the Bihar School of Yoga among other prominent and beneficial institutions.
Paramahamsaji brought many practical and authentic Tantrik teachings to people around the world through his teaching centers and numerous books. Later in life, he performed an ancient, multi-year Tantrik fire ceremony – the panchagni. When he completed that arduous sadhana, he handed over the lineage to his successor, Paramahamsa Niranjanananda Saraswati.
Subsequently, Paramahamsaji embarked on a great expansion of the charitable works of the lineage. He became a more pronounced proponent of Bhakti, and undertook the economic and social upliftment of 50,000 villagers in and around Rikhia. Two recent movies have documented the annual Sat Chandi festival at Rikhia and the unique and thoughtful manner in which charitable works are carried out by the lineage.
Although I never met Paramahamsaji in person, his writings, especially his early books on the Guru-disciple relationship, shaped me profoundly. He also helped me at several crucial moments in my life through dreams and in other ways.
Now is a wonderful time to meditate on this great Guru, to offer your prayers for his future unfolding, and to open to the never-ending flow of Guru’s grace.
In Ma’s love,
Shambhavi
Saw the news after searching My Guru Ji few articles at internet and totally shocked.
Guru Ji, is my Dada, Mom and Dad and everything and always with us in divine way to give us a strength and clear path to achieve and discover truth in life. Only my wet eyes and lots of past memories are the facts of these Parma divine soul feelings.
Hari Om Tatsat!!
God bless us (all devotees) at this hard time,
Dear Shambhavi
Thanks for your words of wisdom and kindness. Swamiji would not want us to dwell to much in the torrent of sadness (that hit me snyway) at this trime of his passing, but to rise above body consciousness where we can commune once again with our Guru.
Thinking of the omnipresent transcendental being, may we unite.
Pranams
Mouna
Om Shanti Shanti Shanthi
At least this is how I got to know him as an authority of superb knowledge through his books.
I have no doubts about his soul, he is smiling at us from the abode of Shiva.
Hari Om
Swami Vajranapani saraswathi in the central station today by 3 pm. This has sent shock waves through the spine for an ardent devotee of him. Having had the privilege ,grace and rare honour to see and talk to him this is a huge loss. A loss to Rikia, a momenta l loss to the Bihar school of yoga.
At this hour we just pray .
with love and pranams to Guruji.

Paramahamsaji is in our heart and will it be for ever.
“Let the inner lamp grow brighter and brighter.
Let the old leaves wither away. Lets the clouds subside.
Let the great light prevail. Let the devine force rejoice in thee.”

I got the news of Sri Swami Ji Mahasamadhai at 6 AM. As soon as i got the news all his meeting, satsang and innocent expression unconditional love for humanity and his teaching went through flash in my mind. Although Sri Swamiji is not there in physical body He is still there in his universal guru form free form all physical boundary and became our inspiration and light in spiritual path. Now there is no physical boundary and we can connect him through our heart eyes and we can communicate always anywhere because he became now sharvaVayapak. Now we should feel his omnipresence. He is always there with us we need to become good conductor of his ever flowing grace. Today in Bangalore Atmadarshan Yogashram all sadhak and devotee of Sri Swami Ji Chanted Mantras Bhajan and Kirtan Thourgh out his Bhumisamidhi time form 2 Pm to 6pm. Everybody offered Flower Deepa and there dedication to his eternal Guru Consciousness.

Hari Om.
To merger with the Absolute
The fragrance will continue to grace
All seekers of the Truth
Let me decorate many hearts and paint a thousand faces with colors of inspiration and soft, silent sounds of value.
Let me be like a child, run barefoot through the forest of laughing and crying people, Giving flowers of imagination and wonder,that God gives free.
Shall I fall on bended knees ,and wait for some one to bless me with a happiness and a life of golden dreams?
No. I shall run into the desert of life with my arms open, sometimes falling, sometimes stumbling,But always picking myself up, a thousand times if necessary,sometimes happy.
Often life will burn me, often life will caress me tenderly and many of my days will be haunted With complications and obstacles ,and there will be moments so beautiful lThat my soul will weep in ecstasy.
I shall be a witness,but never shall I run or turn from life, from me -
Swami Satyananda Saraswati

With a heavy heart our family, in which your are an integral part all these years, we pray that your blessing and teachings continue to illuminate our lives forever. The lessons you taught us since 1969 we try praticing even today.
We are shocked and in grief.
Om tat sat!
All Brothers and sisters,all devotees you must have heard the story of The Elephant and the Boy who asked Paramhamsa Swamiji for giving him enlightenment immediately or he will Run away from the Ashram…That’s this small disciple of his quoting again ‘where is the enlightenment’..but now I see what he meant.
We don’t have to go any distance it’s within you…

आज विचार आ रहा है की कुछ … तो ऐसा है कि याद रखना
१. किसी कि निंदा मत करना
२. किसी को सलाह मत देना
३. ऐसा कभी मत बलोना कि सामने वाले को सुनकर दुःख हो.
४. ऐसा कुछ मत कहना जिससे कि तुम्हारी बड़ाई लग रही हो
और ७ दिन प्रक्टिस करके मुझे संपर्क करना, अभी नहीं होता तो जभी भी ७ दिन
लगातार करते हो तो बताना !! बताना जरूर मै इंतजार करूंगा !!
We are blessed to be your disciples, and our existence is all due to your Aashirwad. Thanks for everything. Though we should not be sad, we are. May you keep guiding and blessing us and all humankind as always.
Hari Om.

A being who is living testament to the mystery of the sacred chants, the divine seed realized – Jai Ho Swamiji…. Jai Ho…
Hari Om Tat Sat….
“Bhakti is the path, God is the destiny and you and I are the travellers. This is the only truth. We are born with only one destiny. Man is an experiment and the outcome of that experiment is the experience of God” ( Yoga Mag, Jan-Feb 2003)
Thank you Paramahamsaji for feeling you in me.

OM Gurudev! Last month I made 4 DVD’s in Swamiji’s voice.
Great Guru, Great Master, I am not sad because I know He is still with me! and I love Him today and every day of my life! Jai Gurudev.
Compartiendo sinceramente el pesar por su partida.
