Biography

[edit]

Paramahamsa Prajnanananda was born Triloki Dash in a small village called Pattimundai in Orissa, India. As a college student, through his unquentiable thurst for God, he met his master Paramahamsa Hariharananda who after a period of time initiated him into Kriya Yoga, later taking Sannyas becoming Swami Prajnanananda Giri from his master. At an extremely young age of 39 on his birthday, he was awarded the title of Paramahamsa, a title reserved only for those monks who attain the summit of realisation, Nirvikalpa Samadhi. As a teacher he has an incredible memory of various scriptures from both the east and west cultures, breaking them down into tangable teaching and lessons to help spiritual asspirants on their way to god realisation.[2]
