"The Transcendental Divinity That Is Lord
Rama" by Sri Swami Sivananda
On Sacred Sri Ramnavmi April 21, 2021 ![]()
"The Name of Lord Rama is the greatest purifier of the
heart. It wipes away all one's sins. Not only this, but
it wipes away the sinful tendencies as well. The Name is
sweeter than the sweetest of objects. It is the haven of
peace. It is the very life of pure souls. It is the
purifier of all purifying agencies. It quenches the
consuming fire of worldly desires. It awakens the
knowledge of God. It bathes the aspirant in the, ocean
of divine bliss. Glory to Sri Rama and His Name!
None but the righteous can be truly happy. None but he who has the correct sense of duty and the will for its implementation can be said to live worthily. One must be imbued with a definite conviction about the supremacy of moral principles, ethical values and spiritual ideals. These ought to guide one's day-to-day actions and serve as powerful means for the culture of the human personality. That is the purpose of life. That is the way to Self-realisation. That is the message and the mission of Lord Rama's Life on earth - Swami Sivananda << Read More>> ==================================================================
Early Morning Meditation talks from "Ponder These
Truths" by Sri Swami Chidananda
"Surrender"
" It is our ego-sense that we surrender, the idea “I
am doing.” We surrender our self-will and put
ourselves into His hands, so that we act as He
dictates, we act as He teaches. So action is there,
but no more self-will, no more action prompted by
the mind, but action according to the will of God,
according to the wisdom teachings of God and His
saints."
Surrender and activity do not conflict with each
other, but are part and parcel of a total act of
spiritualising yourself completely, stepping aside
and asking God to take over. If God takes over,
everything is under control, everything is working
perfectly. If we are there, nothing is under
control—mind is not under control, senses are not
under control, everything is upside down. When you
put yourself under the will of God and His wisdom
teachings, then you are a self-controlled person.
You will not allow the senses to do whatever they
wish or the mind to do whatever it wishes. You will
only do that which is in accordance with the will of
God, the teachings of God and the saints. If it is
not in consonance with the will of God and the
teachings of the saints, you will not do it." -
Swami Chidananda

Brahmotsav of Sri Sri Ashtalaxmi Bahvan & Sri
Chidananda Dhyana Mandir/Sri Ashtalaxmi Darshan
(April 29, 2021)
The Upnisads, the essence of Vedas, sing the
glory of the Mother-worship, "Matru Devo Bhava"
is the famous saying of the Upnisad. When God,
Himself incarnates as Mother, naturally it
brings additional harmony to the
Mother-worship. Laxmi is not money only.
Patience, discrimination, our progeny,
education, victory etc. are our wealth. The
greatest wealth is character, patience and
discrimination. - Swami Sivananda

Through TV episodes of "Jeevan Yoga" Series by Doordarshan Girnar ![]()
Asthma: Asthma is a
chronic disease that affects your airways. Your
airways are tubes that carry air in and out of your
lungs. If you have asthma, the inside walls of your
airways become sore and swollen. That makes them
very sensitive, and they may react strongly to
things that you are allergic to or find irritating.
When your airways react, they get narrower and your
lungs get less air. This can cause wheezing,
coughing, chest tightness and trouble breathing,
especially early in the morning or at night.
Regular practice of Bhujangasana, Dhanurasana, Shavasana, Ujjai, Kapalbhati, Bhastrika, Omkar, Jalneti, Sutraneti and Kunjal processes can be very beneficial in managing the disease of asthma but proper medical consultation should be obtained. Management includes avoiding asthma triggers and tracking your symptoms. You may need to regularly take long-term control medications to prevent flare-ups and short-term "rescue" medications to control symptoms once they start.. << Read More>>

Glories of Divine Name
Rama Nama burns ignorance, passion and sin. With
knowledge or without knowledge, correctly or
incorrectly, when the word "Rama" is pronounced,
it showers a rain of good on the devotee. Sri
Rama Brahma Tarakam: Sri Rama is Brahman who
takes one across Samsara. Rama is one in whom
yogins sport (Ramante) i.e., the Self within.
Once you take refuge in Him, your welfare
becomes His responsibility."- Swami Sivananda
"Indeed the power of God’s Name is simply marvelous. It can take man to the highest and loftiest truth of world existence. The Name grants him a state of unalterable freedom, bliss & peace."- Papa Ramdas "What is it that can link us with that which is beyond thought, speech and mind, beyond the grasp of the intellect? The path of the Divine Name in this Kali Yuga is the supreme, the least complicated, the most efficacious, unfailing, simple and powerful path."- Swami Chidananda
