Course Lead
Swami Vishweshwaranand
Head of the 200-Hour Teacher Training · Principal Teacher of Meditation, Yoga Humanities & Spirituality
Born into a Brahmin family of scholars, Swami Vishweshwaranand left home at the age of seven to begin his spiritual journey under the guidance of Param Tapaswi Baba Shri Kalyan Das Ji of Amarkantak. On the banks of the Narmada, he received the Diksha of Shri Krishna and the esoteric knowledge of the Vedas and Gita in a mystic tradition passed down through his master.
He travelled much of India in his early years, studying Vedic scriptures, before receiving his elementary education in Nainital and later his university education in Pune and Varanasi. Recognized early for his depth of understanding, he was given the title of Yogi and began teaching Dhyan Praveshika — entry into the meditative state — a technique rooted in the Pranava Naad Sadhna of the Udasin tradition.
