Sathguru Śri Śāntānanda Svāmigal

Gurōrādi Anādischa
Guruh Parama Daivatam

Gurōh Parataram Nāsti

Tasmai Śri Guravē Namaha

"The Guru has neither beginning nor end; the Guru is the ultimate God (in the visible form). There is nothing beyond this Guru principle, and I salute such a Guru."

My humble obeisance at the Lotus Feet of my beloved Sathguru Sri Santhananda Swamigal, who is the greatest of the Avadhoota Saints of our times. He is India’s Spiritual Gift to the World. Described variedly as a Siddha Purusha, Maha Yogi and a Brahma Gnyaani, Sri Swamigal is a Divine Incarnate who traversed this world and continues to live amongst us even today, in his Sukskma Shariram or Invisible form. Sathguru Sri Santhananda Swamigal has been a torchbearer of Hinduism and its glorious traditions. A fountainhead of infinite love, compassion and grace, Sathguru Sri Santhananda Swamigal, has been a source of benevolence and solace to many. He has selflessly strived to alleviate the pains and sufferings of Humanity. A keen upholder of the Hindu Dharma, Sri Sathguru Santhananda Swamigal is revered as the very avathar or manifestation of Goddess Bhuvaneshwari, the Universal Mother. He has toiled untiringly to spread peace and happiness in this world.


Countless are the miracles of Sri Swamigal. He, through His Divine will, has miraculously transformed the lives of many. There are countless souls who are the beneficiaries of his grace and munificence. The very embodiment of Santham and Anandam i.e. Peace and Bliss, Sathguru Sri Santhananda Swamigal, is a Living God and a Guiding Spirit to all those who seek refuge at his Lotus Feet.

Sāntam Tāntam Tapōniśṭam Śāntānanda Gurutvaham

Satgurūm Dyāyāmi Sarvadēva Kṛtāvāsam
Sarvalōka Namaskṛtam Kṛupāvatāram Lōkēsyā Avadhūtam Upāsmahē
