Acharya Kedar is the founder and spiritual head of Supreme Meditation. He participates in a long line of Siddhacharyas (Siddha Gurus). The Master of his lineage is Bhagawan Nityananda of Ganeshpuri.
Acharyaji follows and teaches the Dharma of Bhagawan Nityananda as expressed in the Chidakasha Gita of Bhagawan Nityananda. He is the only living Master to continue the line of oral teachings based on this sacred text, the only recorded text of Bhagawan Nityananda’s words.
Acharyaji's students and disciples, as well as disciples of Bhagawan Nityananda who served Bade Baba, all recognize Acharyaji as being a Siddha Guru, a perfected Master of the Yoga of the Siddha Path. Out of honor and respect for Acharya Kedar and his work, some direct disciples of Bhagawan Nityananda have written forewords to Acharyaji's books.
He received Shaktipat (spiritual awakening) and initiation into the holy order of the Siddha Path from Sri Swami Muktananda Paramahamsa who then gave him the name Kedar (a reference to Lord Shiva). He then instructed Acharyaji to meditate on and follow the inner guidance of his own Master, Bhagawan Nityananda of Ganeshpuri.
Acting on the inner command of Bhagawan Nityananda, Acharyaji carries on the work of the Siddhas of his lineage. Acharya Kedar always says that his work is his selfless service to his Master and that he is only able to do it by the Grace of his Master. In the practice of Supreme Meditation we take refuge in Bhagawan Nityananda, the Master of Acharyaji's lineage, considered to be one of the greatest Saints of our modern times.
