Swami Paramananda Giri Ji Maharaj was oriented towards renunciation since his childhood. In 1956 Swami Ji received his “Sanyas Deeksha” from his guru Swami Akhandanandji Maharaj. He worked relentlessly for the welfare of society. He is renowned for transmitting transcendental consciousness among seekers of truth thereby leading them toward the stage of self-realization. He continues to be a torchbearer of many projects toward the upliftment of society.
Swami Parmananda Ji Maharaj is considered one of the most effective orators of his time. His conceptual grasp of the ancient texts is extremely clear and he discusses the Vedantas with a veracity that allows even laymen to feel convinced about the underlying messages and teachings. His fame has crossed the boundaries and he has been invited to the United Nations to speak at the 1st Millennium World Peace Summit of Religious and Spiritual Leaders on August 28-31, 2000. In 2001 and 2002, he visited several places in the USA and enlightened a large number of devotees and seekers.
