About our Foundation - Know Thyself Foundation is a registered charity (charity registration no. 1173075) founded by Swami Paramananda Spiritual World Scientist. The team consists, entirely of unwaged volunteers which help to run a series of meditation classes and events facilitated mainly by the master to elevate the level of consciousness of one and all through the science of meditation. We are mostly 95% or more unconscious and it's only through an elevated awakened mind can we bring peace and change in society.

A complete change in mindset & behaviour through the art of meditation and cleansing of the three main layers (body, mind and heart) can lead one to a profound state of bliss, peace and happiness. Through such a state, virtue overflows where genuine unconditional loving qualities are born. Many people around the world are taking cognizance of the need for meditation in their lives and our charity believes it's the only way forward for our world.


Through an unprecedented decline in the quality of lives globally, stress is one of the biggest and mostly undetected killers of our time. Our charity aims to empower individuals through a variety of carefully devised meditation techniques. All problems arise from the mind, and all its solutions too lie within it!

A variety of techniques both passive and dynamic are taught to suit people of different temperaments.
