As the first man of Niranjan Akhara, he is a spiritual leader of thousands on Naga Sadhus, and he had given Deeksha[2] to them.

Early life[edit]
Kailashanand Giri Ji was born on 1 January 1976, in the North Indian state Bihar (currently in Jharkhand) small town of Jasidih of Deoghar[3] district. He became a home solitaire at his early childhood, he left his home and started to live in the forest in the company of Saints. While living in a company of Saints his curiosity towards Vedic Sanatan Dharma[4] increased day by day, so he decided to gain more knowledge of Vedic education. He went to many Ashrams for this purpose and learned a lot about Vedic Dharma, Vedas, Puranas, Upanishads, and Yoga.
Education[edit]
His final destination was Sampurnanand Sanskrit Vishwavidhayalaya[5] in Varanasi, from where he completed his Acharya degree(Post Graduation) in Vedic education in 2002. After completing his Acharya degree he became the secretary of Shri Shambhu Panch Agni Akhara.
Works[edit]
While holding the post of a secretary of Shri Shambhu Panch Agni Akhara his name changed, and people called him Mahant Shree Kailashanand Brahmachari. Panch Agni Akhara[6] is one of the 13 Akharas and this Akhara is only for Brahmacharis(bachelor). Being celibate Akharas main and biggest prerequisite, the current president of Agni Akhara Bapu Gopalanand[7] Brahmachari Ji made him his disciple and the secretary of Agni Akhara. Under the leadership of Kailashanand Giri Ji, Agni Akhara participated in many Kumbh, and Mahakumbhs.[8]
Writer[edit]
He is a writer and scholar of Hindi and Sanskrit languages, as he completed his education in Vedic education so he has excellent knowledge of Vedas, Puranas, Upnishads and Yoga. He wrote a book River of Moksha[9] which is based on River Ganga, River Ganga is highly sacred in Hinduism, they worshipped and called it Maa Ganga. His another book Shaktisatvanam[10] is in the Sanskrit language, a rare collection of Vedic Strotas, and the third book is Gangagatha.[11]
Religious Guru[edit]
In 2006, Bapu Gopalanand gave another responsibility to Acharya Kailashanand, he selected him as the Peethadheeshwar of South Kali Mandir[12] Chandi Ghat Haridwar. This Peeth was established by Mahaguru Baba Kamraj Ji, which is distinguished as being the main among all the Peeths of Vedic Sanatan Dharma for many centuries. The journey of Swami Ji from Shree Mahant to the prestigious post of Mahamandaleshwar is the result of his hard work and devotion to Sanatan Dharma. Agni Akhara revered Acharya Kailashanand as a Mahamandaleshwar at the age of 38 at Prayagraj Mahakumbh in 2013.
The death of Bapu Gopalanad Brahmachari was not only a loss of Agni Akharas members but also a huge loss of entire saint communities. After his death, the responsibilities of all his Ashrams were transferred. Increasing splendor of the revered Swami Ji and his continuous contributions made to the Vedic Sanatan Dharma, Shri Panchayati is expected to be seated on Acharya Mahamandaleshwar.
Finally on 14 January 2021,[13] Swami Kailashanand became Niranjan[14] Peethadheeshwar Mahamandaleshwar Kailashanand Giri Ji. All saint communities and famous Akharas and famous personalities of Indian region came on his Pattabhishek[15] ceremony, and accepted him as their spiritual leader.
