A
Brief Biography
Introduction
At age fifteen Baba Muktananda went
to Hubli and entered the ashram of Siddharudha Swami.
He studied Sanskrit, Vedanta and all branches of yoga
in the Math of Siddharudha Swami and took the initiation
of sannyasa, becoming Swami Muktananda. From there he
walked across most of India, living an austere existence,
mastering hatha yoga & studying ayurveda. In 1929,
following the death of Siddharudha, he went to study
for a short time under Mupinariya Swami at Dharwar.
Then he began a period of travel. He became acquainted
with two unconventional saints, Zipruanna and Harigiri
Baba, both of whom encouraged him to travel to Ganeshpuri
in order to see Bhagawan Nityananda.
