PEARLS OF DEVOTION

Swami Sivananda

When you take medicine, think of Lord Vishnu. When you go to bed, repeat the name of Padmanabha. When you take food, meditate on Janardana. When you marry, think of Lord Prajapati. When you fight either in the physical or spiritual sense think of Chakradhari, the wielder of the discus. When dying, think of Lord Narayana. When you are in difficulties, remember Madhusudana. When you are in the midst of forest, think of Lord Narasimha. When fire threatens, think of Jalasan the one lying on the water. When you are caught in deep waters remember Varaha. Think of Garuda. You will not see bad dreams. When you climb mountain think of Raghunandana.


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

In the presence of light, you cannot have darkness. In the presence of sensual pleasures Atmic Bliss cannot exist. Worldlings want sensual pleasures and Atmic Ananda at the same time in one and the same cup. This is an absolute impossibility.
