Siddhashrama (Siddhāśrama;
Kanada, Pulastya, Atri, Mahayogi Gorakhnath, Srimad Shankaracharya, Bheesma, Kripacharya can be seen wandering there in physical form and also one can have the privilege of listening to their sermons. Many Siddha yogi, yoginis, Apsara (Angel), saints are believed to be found meditating in this place. Those who allegedly went there say that the beautiful flowers in the garden, trees, birds, siddha-yoga lake, meditating saints and many other things of the place cannot be described in words. The exact location of this legendary kingdom is unknown as it is believed that Gyanganj artfully camouflages (willingly hides itself) itself from humans, as well as mapping technologies. Some also believe that Gyanganj exists in a different plane of reality and thus cannot be detected by satellites.[citation needed

In ancient Indian literature
Siddhashrama (literally, the hermitage of the siddhas) is referred to in the
Suta.[5]
In recent writings
In the modern era, the knowledge of Siddhashram is first referred by the Pandit Gopinath Kaviraj.[6] It is also mentioned in the book Autobiography of an Avadhoota by Swami Nadananda.[7][8][9]
