Swami Brahmadhyanananda Giri was born and grew up in India and was interested in Yoga and meditation from a young age. His search for the right path was fulfilled after learning Kriya Yoga from Paramahamsa Prajnanananda ji in 2005. Later in 2010, he became a resident at Homestead ashram and started serving the organization and the Kriya community. Paramahamsa Prajnanananda ji blessed him and ordained him in the Giri order of monkhood in 2020.
