Establishing Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam
Nithyananda remains always grateful to the spiritual masters and the rich spiritual heritage of India which made it possible for him to learn and practice these timeless spiritual truths. Wishing to share his spiritual understanding with others, and dedicate his life to the service of humanity, he decided to end his life as a recluse and enter into the public life. To this end, he set up his spiritual organization Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam on 1st January 2003, with its headquarters in Bidadi near Bengaluru (earlier Bangalore) in India.
The organization was set up with the vision of:
- Preserving, reviving and spreading the authentic Vedic culture of India
- Introducing to the common man the many benefits of yoga and meditation, and offering practical solutions for better living
- Reaching out to the needy and underprivileged through medical care, nutrition, education, youth and women’s empowerment and other social initiatives.
- Helping to create a conflict-free, productive and harmonious global community that transcends the barriers of language, culture and class.
In the short span of 8 years since its inception, Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam has seen phenomenal growth and received tremendous popular support. The organization has ashrams, Vedic temples and thousands of meditation centers in 150 countries worldwide. These spiritual centers nurture quantum spirituality, where material and spiritual worlds merge and create opportunities for blissful living.
Today, Nithyananda is an inspiring personality for millions of people worldwide. His authenticity, depth of experience and his rare gift for making spirituality both practical and enjoyable have allowed Nithyananda’s teachings to reach far and wide. A powerful spiritual healer, Nithyananda has healed thousands of people of diseases ranging from depression to cancer, often with a single touch. Working and sharing with over 10 million people worldwide every year, Nithyananda is committed to help humanity make the next big breakthrough: into Superconsciousness.
