Bhakti Marga is a neo-Hindu organisation[1][2] founded by Mauritian-born guru Paramahamsa Sri Swami Vishwananda.[3][4][5] It was established on 13 June 2005 in Frankfurt, Germany. Its main headquarters is located in Heidenrod, Hesse, Germany.[1][6][7][8] It views itself as being part of a new tradition founded by Vishwananda, the Hari Bhakta Sampradaya, which represents a combination of certain Vaishnava,[9] Shaiva and Shakta philosophies.[1][10][11] The followers not only adhere to multiple sets of Hindu scriptures but also predominantly on the "personality of Paramahamsa Vishwananda",[1][10][12][9] similar to the Sant tradition.
