| Swami Niranjanananda Saraswati |
Now Yoga Nidra is internationally famous for its wide range spectacular benefits ranging from stress to spirituality. The inventor of Yoga Nidra, Swami Satyananda Saraswati's beloved disciple is Swami Niranjanananda Saraswati. He was born in this physical body on 14th February 1960 in Madhya Pradesh, India. He was initiated as Sannyasi at the age of ten only, because by the virtue of past lives Samskaaras he is a born Yogi.
In 1971 he extensively toured Europe, America and Australia and gave lectures on philosophy. This tour broadened his spiritual approach to the needs of modern person. He became the president of Bihar School of Yoga (BSY) in 1983 and further encouraged the Scientific approach to Yoga, Yoga Nidra and Spirituality.
By the grace of Divinity I went to his Bihar School of Yoga in 1990 to learn Spiritual Yoga and Yoga Nidra. Though I was well trained as Yoga master in Hyderabad, I traveled all the way to Munger to learn Spiritual Yoga. Those training days are the most memorable days not only in my life, but in the life of all the trainees.

Swami Niranjanananda Saraswati was very young in 1990 and he used to be very friendly with all the other swamijis, inmates, yoga trainees, construction workers, kitchen employees, etc. Whenever I requested him to spare few seconds for a photo, he readily gave me permission with a comment," you ask for a photo only when I has unshaven beard".

In one word Swami Niranjanananda Saraswati is a LIVING PARAMAHANSA.
His Satsang, really it is the best in my Spiritual journey, his answers to the questions and doubts of devotees were spontaneous and exact to the point.
