Bhagawan Nityananda (1897–1961) was an Indian yogi and Siddha Guru known for his spiritual teachings and extraordinary powers. Abandoned as a child, he was found to be exceptionally spiritual, eventually earning the name Nityananda, meaning "always in bliss". He settled in Ganeshpuri, where he spent the last 25 years of his life, sharing his wisdom through silence and powerful spiritual presence. His most famous disciple was Swami Muktananda, who spread his teachings globally, establishing the Siddha Yoga path.
