Siddhaguru was attracted to spirituality at a very young age. At the age of 9, he started worshipping Goddess Kanakadurga. Siddhaguru married VijayaLaxmi on 8th March 1995 and the couple has two daughters.
 
==Self realization==
In 1994, Siddhaguru went to Tirupathi for darshan Lord Venkateswara. Fortunately, he initiated the "Om Namah Shivaya" mantra that gave the fruit of Mantrasiddhi-a state where the External Conscious mind chants the hymn with Inner Consciousness.
 
In April, Guru Samrat Shirdi Saibaba entered his life. The incident happened accidentally when buying pics of Hindu deities, a person holding Shirdi Saibaba picture requested him to buy it. The second he saw the picture of Shirdi Saibaba, He felt a different state of the world, a state of ecstasy. He purchased the picture and on his way home, He met a friend who requested him to rest for the day at his abode. During his sleep, suddenly his room was illuminated. Saibaba has manifested out of the illumination. His face filled with divine splendour. He walked towards Siddhaguru and bestowed his ocean of grace taking him to a misery free world through placing his divine little finger on his Sahasrara chakra (Crown Chakra).
 
This motivated him to have a deeper insight of Shirdi Sai Baba. His insight journey started with "Shiridi Saibaba Jeevitha Charitra". Baba had sent a living Siddha guru Mataji Sri Purnananda Giri Yogini for self-inquiry. She initiated shaktipat and awakened Kundalini energy in him that reached Sahasrara chakra in no time.
 
On June 29th 1995, he had attained self-realization. This happened in Goddess Kanakadurga temple where his initial spiritual journey began. Unknowingly his eyes closed, Kundalini awakened and reached Crown Chakra (The-Sahasrara). He was in a different world of ecstasy for two and half hours-The state of Nirvikalpa Samadhi. The state of being united with Supreme. This state lasted for 21 days. This created a transition in his lifestyle. The real philosophy of spirituality is unfolded. The true perception of Shastras, Vedas, Upanishads is apparent.
 
;After self-realization:
Siddhaguru after attaining self-realization in 1995 had been to the Himalayas to validate his enlightenment with other Siddhagurus who attained it. He met many Sadhus and Sadgurus to see an eye to eye of Samadhi experience with them and also read many shastras to validate his experience.
