Born at the turn of the 20th century near Calicut, India, Nityananda
has been recognized as an avadhut, a rare and gifted being of
profound yogic power and capacity. Early in his life, he roamed
throughout India teaching, healing and transforming people wherever
he went. He eventually settled in the jungle in Ganeshpuri, near
Bombay, where he spent the last 30 years of his life. He spoke
little, but there was magic in his presence. By the time he took
mahasamadhi in 1961, he had touched the lives of thousands of
people all over India and beyond.
