The Divine Transmission: When Siddhaguru Bestowed Self-Realization Upon His Daughters

In a world where Self-Realization is the pinnacle of spiritual pursuit, to witness it bestowed through Shaktipat by a living Guru is an extraordinary event. Siddhaguru Sri Ramananda Maharshi, a beacon of Advaita wisdom and divine power, demonstrated this rare spiritual possibility by granting Shaktipat to his own daughters—Bhavani and Shivani—culminating in their direct realization of the Self.

This wasn’t just a father-daughter moment. This was a divine play (“leela”) where Paramatma moved through lineage and love.

On June 27, 2025, after an intense 11-day period of Mouna Dhyana Tapodeeksha (a vow of silence and meditation), Siddhaguru called his daughters and offered Shaktipat—the sacred transmission of spiritual energy. With no verbal instruction, no ritualistic preparation, he simply asked them to sit in meditation. What followed was beyond imagination.

Colors of divine radiance appeared—deep blue, gold, and brilliant white. External awareness dissolved. Time itself seemed to collapse as they entered Nirvikalpa Samadhi, the formless realm of the Absolute. They experienced what great saints and seekers yearn for over lifetimes.

Shivani, now conferred the title Tatvadarshini, wept not out of sorrow, but because she had to return from that infinite bliss. In her own words: “I didn’t expect to see Shiva in this life. But I saw not just the form of Shiva, I saw the formless Shiva. I lost the sense of body and world—I became that light.

Bhavani too entered the same state alongside her, and both sisters were declared by Siddhaguru to have attained Self-Realization. Not just disciples, but first among all his 1.75 lakh disciples worldwide to reach that rare height.

This wasn’t just a personal elevation. It was a statement of Siddhaguru’s yogic mastery—that a Guru doesn’t merely teach, but awakens. He had already given Shaktipat to thousands worldwide, curing ailments, invoking divine visions, and transforming lives. But this—bestowing Atma Sakshatkara to his own daughters—was a cosmic testimony.

The daughters weren’t raised in normal worldly comforts. They were immersed from childhood in Vedic chants, pujas, homas, and seva. Shivani grew up seeing Shiva not as a deity, but as her universe, friend, and truth. This Shaktipat was a culmination of their spiritual grooming and the boundless grace of their father-Guru.
