THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM's Experience of Levitation with Yogananda Puri🔗

Yogananda Puri was one of THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM's biggest spiritual influences as a child. He was trained in the Natha sampradaya in Burma for many years until he migrated back to Thiruvannamalai where he was born and brought up. Yogananda Puri gave THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM initiation after initiation into new powers. He used to make the young incarnation do Surya Namaskar from sunrise to sunset without a break. Because of this, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM laughingly describes his relationship with Yogananda Puri as a love-hate relationship.

"For few days, I would refuse to see him. Then suddenly, I would feel love for him and just go and sit on his lap" he said.

No matter what, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM always recognizes how much Yogananda Puri gave him. That is why he was given the title by THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM, "The Yogi that made me a Yogi"

THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM once told Yogananda Puri, as a thirteen year old, "When you attain samadhi, I'll build a big temple for you!"

"No, no, no" he refused in response. "I will see to it you aren't there when I leave the body. I don't want anything from you. If anything, just promise me you will go on making yogis like I made you"

Paramahamsa Nithyananda promised. Today, he declared that he was keeping his word through his gurukul students. As the first to receive and express these shaktis, they are the fulfillment of his promise to Yogananda Puri.

He has said, "They are the embodiment of Yogananada Puri"

This technique took the most time to perfect in THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM's body when he was a child. He didn't stand for any less than the authentic levitation where the body lifts at least 2 feet off the ground, remains there for sometime and then gracefully drifts down. This was the standard to which he had to keep himself so that he could initiate people fifteen years later, in a hall filled with devotees. And if not himself, he had Yogananda Puri to always keep that standard up for him.

One time, Yogananda Puri had drawn a mandala on the ground and told THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM to sit immediately. He began sounding out the Shodasi syllables to awaken the kundalini. Immediately, like disciples often do, eight year old THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM began moving around fluidly, jumping in the air messily, rotating his torso in circles and so forth.

Suddenly, Yogananda Puri just snapped and told him to stop. Without wavering his voice, he told the future guru, "Ay, you can't move your body like this. In the future, millions will be jumping around you. You have to stay strong,"

Without a second thought, THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM BHAGAWAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM sat completely straight, as if something was pulling his spine up. Just as he sits during Shivoham processes and every disciple tumbles and turns around him in the Shivabodha of Oneness.
