Dhyanyogi Parameshwardasji was a great master of Kundalini yoga and he gave Madhusudandasji the Shaktipat of Kundalini Yoga.

The Guru answered numerous questions posed by Madhusudandasji and blessed him with power and knowledge. He told Dhyanyogi Madhusudandasji to travel and help the thirsting devotees with spiritual knowledge and Shaktipat. Dhyanyogi Madhusudandasji was now ready for his life quest.
