Vishwaguruji returns to Europe – Blessed Reunion

May and June 2025 – Blessings in Vienna, Střílky and Levoča

After almost 5 months spent in India, Vishwaguru Mahamandaleshwar Paramhans Sri Swami Maheshwaranandaji has once again graced Europe with His divine presence.

To the immense joy of His European disciples, Vishwaguruji visited and spent a few days in Guruji Ashram in Vienna, Austria, and Mahaprabhudip Ashram in Střílky, Czech Republic, and also visited bhaktas in Levoča, Slovakia.

Devotees from many corners of Europe gathered for darshan and satsangs – to be in the uplifting presence of their beloved Master. The satsangs were further enriched by the deep wisdom and inspiring lectures of Swami Avatarpuriji, Mahamandaleshwar Swami Gyaneshwarpuriji and Mahamandaleshwar Swami Vivekpuriji.

The divine blessing and darshan of Gurudev are the highest gifts – the most sacred treasures in this universe.

 Vienna, 30 May 2025 – A Sacred Moment of Succession

In a deeply touching and spiritually significant moment, Vishwaguruji handed over His personal mala to His inaugurated successor, Swami Avatar Puriji. This mala, which Vishwaguruji has often described as His most precious possession – gifted to Him by His revered Master, Holy Guruji – symbolises the purest link of the spiritual lineage. Vishwaguruji’s act of bestowing his mala upon Swami Avatar Puriji represents a profoundly symbolic and spiritual continuation of the OM Sri Alakhpuriji Siddha Peeth Parampara.

Excerpt from Vishwaguruji's autobiography Yoga in My Daily Life, about His mala:

"I have had it since I had nothing at all, only one dhoti and one slightly better kurta, which I wore when visiting Shankaracharyaji, to make a good impression. However, I was given a mala and mantra by Holy Guruji – the most precious treasure I could ever be given. I have been practising my mantra with this mala since then. When you look at it today, you can clearly see that, yes, this mala is really being used…

...It is the most precious thing I own. All mantras and all my bhakti are inside it. It was touched by Holy Guruji’s mala, which he got from Mahaprabhuji. All that it contains, I am passing on to all of you."

May this sacred transition inspire all sincere seekers on the path, and may the light of Gurudev’s blessings shine in the hearts of all.
