be Peace (in my inner space). Peace (in the nature). Peace (in the divine

“The current system of education established by Macaulay and Max Muller

in India is the ‘non-involving narrative style’ of teaching. The original Indian
education system was not about continuously giving words, ideas, concepts,
theories or theologies. It was about awakening you to the right context –
Enlightenment. The Indian Education System – the Gurukul - is more of a
‘transmission’ of the knowledge, rather than mere ‘transfer’ of knowledge.
My Gurukul kids will not use their body as a ‘PC’ that merely processes
information that is fed to it. They will function as the ‘internet’, accessing
knowledge from the cosmic archives and having their own inventions and
discoveries!"
- Paramahamsa Nithyananda

 What is Gurukul education?
It is the original Indian Education System of
Sanatana Hindu Dharma where students lived
with enlightened masters from a tender age,
learning the 64 vidyas - types of knowledge.
Knowledge was transmitted through the very
bio-memory of the master. The children emerged
as spiritually anchored geniuses who radiated
siddhis (mystical powers) and were high-achievers
and world leaders. Nithyananda GurukulSM is fast
reviving the gurukul education in its entirety not
only in India but around the world, spearheaded
by living incarnation Paramahamsa Nithyananda.

Third Eye AwakeningSM
Third Eye AwakeningSM happens by the direct initiation of
the Avatar, Paramahamsa Nithyananda, the perfected yogi
of mystic powers. The ‘third-eye’ or ajna chakra is located
between the eyebrows and is a mystical energy center,
a gateway to higher consciousness and siddhis (mystic
powers).

"In our Gurukul, I initiate the children into various powers,

and let them explore. When I had enlightenment at age of 12,
third eye awakening happened in me; I saw 360 degrees.
I have initiated the kids into this power and let them explore it.
Now, they are coming up with too many new powers.
They are able to download languages; they are doing many
more things which I did not do."
~ Paramahamsa Nithyananda

EFFECTS OF THE THIRD EYE

After the Third Eye AwakeningSM initiation many children
and adults, express powers deemed super human.
®® high creativity, significantly faster learning of new subjects,
amazing intuition etc.
®® health improvements with stronger immuno response.
®® Seeing and reading without the need for two physical
eyes. Since new dimensions of the brain are awakened, the
possibilities for human health and growth are enormous.
For example: helping the visually challenged to see using
the third eye.
®® Scanning the body of people via the third-eye to diagnose
patients without x-rays or invasive techniques.
