ATTACHMENT IS DELUSION

Swami Sivananda

Youth fades like the evening flower, strength disappears like the rent cloud, the beauty of the body quickly gives way to the ugly death. Sensual life will bring inevitable misery, pain and suffering, birth and death. The mind will not give up easily its activity, agitation and craving for pleasure. You must make it taste gradually the spiritual bliss, through meditation, dispassion and renunciation. Then alone it can be weaned from sensual pleasure. How can there be any desire or any feeling of imperfection, when you behold your Self alone everywhere (Sarvam Khalvidam Brahma)?


Caution: Fraudulent Website

This is to caution all the devotees of Gurudev that some fraudsters have launched a website impersonating the official website of The Divine Life Society, in order to mislead the public and collect money in the name of booking rooms, joining Yoga Courses, etc. Devotees are advised to beware of the fake website with the address https://sivanandaashram.co.in/, email Id info@sivanandaashram.co.in & phone number 9668461538 and take necessary precautions from falling prey to such scammers. It has never been a practice of the Ashram to let the devotees book rooms or register for Yoga Courses through phone or Whatsapp.

Those who are devoted to the Ashram and Gurudev know very well that the Ashram does not charge anything for any Seva at the Ashram. Please take note that the official websites of The Divine Life Society are https://www.sivanandaonline.org and https://www.dlshq.org, email Ids are generalsecretary@sivanandaonline.org and gs@sivanandaonline.org and the online donation portal is https://donations.sivanandaonline.org

Worry presupposes a basic lack of faith in the intelligence, goodness and justice of the Universal Being. If you trust in that Being and know that He is always with you and His plan for you is only for your highest good, then this trust will make the worry superfluous.
