Swami Satya Dev, Mahamandalesvor of Avadhut Mandal ( Hanuman Mandir) Haridwar
Swami Satya Dev (SD) belonged to Nirakari sansyas tradition and was the Mahamandalesvor of Avadhut Mandal Ashram in Haridwar and all its branches in India and in many other countries. He succeeded his honorable Guru Sri Maheswor Dev Shastri . The lead sanctum sanatorium for this Nirakari tradition is Avaddhut Mandal. In the line of Sanyas tradition either of Dasanami, or Nirankari, or Udasin and others, Mahamandalesvor is the highest order that can be conferred to an ascetic. A group of learned sadhus test the ascetic quality and philosophic ability of the person who is going to be Mahamandalesvor of Ashram and only then the title is conferred in a sacred ceremony which is presided by Bharatiya Sadhu Samaj.
