"Man, who becomes Super-Man by realizing his Supreme Self through Divine Grace, is the best replica of God, the Almighty, in His blessed creation. He is the highest in the order of evolution of living beings because of his emotional, intellectual, intuitional and verbal powers of feeling, thinking, cognizing and expressing genius of extraordinary type.
By developing these exceptional powers scientifically, man contemplates to control the whole universe and become the greatest power in the whole world. Though he has succeeded to a great extent in this mad adventure, he has utterly failed in his main purpose of becoming more happy and secure. So, he cannot claim real greatness in the world as he has neither achieved real and enduring happiness, nor overcome grief or misery.
Having known the ephemeral nature of the world through acute discrimination, he who leads a pure life of dispassion and spiritual discipline of serving a real Guru, and gets absorbed in his own Real Nature, is truly the blessed and liberated person, who is also the happiest and the greatest in the world"
- Bhagwan Nityananda
"DIVINE LIGHT dwells within all beings and illuminates the universe. Realizing this truth through the grace of the Sadguru is the goal of human life. The secret of a successful life lies in meditation on the SELF. Meditation occurs spontaneously through Shaktipat. Only a Siddha Guru is capable of giving Shaktipat Deeksha by HIS divine word, touch, glance and thought."
- SWAMI CHETANANANDA SARASWATI

This is the seat of the Siddha Yoga Dham, a registered charitable institution whose spiritual head is Param Poojya (His Holiness) Swami Chetanananda Saraswati, who belongs to the ancient lineage of Siddha Gurus.

Siddhaloka has undertaken Sacred forest project under the able guidance of His Holiness Swami Chetanananda Saraswati. The goal is to restore around 500 acres of wastelands in Magadi Taluk over a period of 5 years, in a phased manner, which would meet the various needs of the people. This ecological restoration will be taken up along the principles of watershed development. Soil and water conservation as well as the livelihoods of communities in the area are the main focus of the programme.

Acting within ones rights and merits should not be construed, as either good action or bad action, but just action involving no 'piety' or 'impiety'. Therefore, live for righteousness, enjoy and suffer for the just, and if necessary fight and die for justness. This is the life of 'liberated life'. A righteous person does not seek or accept anything which is not right
and has no merit. Even if any such thing is offered, they will not only reject the same but will also spurn the offerer as an indirect enemy and agents of forces of evil. Therefore, one who leads 'just' life is above any power on the earth. Such a person not only conquers the entire globe menally but defies death also. He runs the worldly life more smoothly and safely without any desire or want. Whatever he earns is in his own right and enjoys the same like nector without any fear or discontentment.
