FOUNDER OF BHAKTI MARGA
Path of Bhakti
Paramahamsa Vishwananda is the founder of the international organisation known as ‘Bhakti Marga’, which means the ‘path of devotion’.
Paramahamsa Vishwananda personifies many facets of mastery which, both individually and collectively, set Him apart as a living expression of bhakti. All of Bhakti Marga’s efforts and offerings are dedicated to supporting His mission of awakening bhakti in everyone to live a life of devotion to God.
Vaishnava Acharya
Paramahamsa Sri Swami Vishwananda is a Vaishnava acharya in a spiritual lineage that lovingly worships Sriman Narayana and Divine Mother through bhakti. As an acharya, He promotes Sanatana-dharma, the eternal path of loving God.
In the same time-honoured and respected tradition of the acharyas before Him, He has written commentaries on important scriptures.
Kriya Yoga Master
Paramahamsa Sri Swami Vishwananda was born a kriya-yoga Master with full awareness and mastery of all kriya-yoga techniques. Through His grace, and the grace of His guru, Mahavatar Babaji, the world is blessed with Atma Kriya Yoga.
Atma Kriya Yoga techniques cultivate bhakti, which allows you to experience and enjoy a uniquely personal relationship with the Divine.
Satguru
Paramahamsa Sri Swami Vishwananda is a living satguru who is in constant union with the Divine. He didn’t achieve this state through study or labour; He was born God-realised.
The transcendent nature of the satguru’s being is not easy for the mind to understand, however. It is a mystery to be revealed and realised through the ability to live His teachings on a daily basis.
Living Bhakti
Paramahamsa Vishwananda lives bhakti with each and every breath He takes. Every action is done with the awareness and love of God. This is living bhakti.
Bhakti is not a religion; it is a way of living and a way of loving the Divine. Bhakti is not bound by dogma; it is a personal relationship that gives you the freedom to worship God in whatever form of Love you like: as a friend, a servant, a parent, or a lover.
