DEVELOP DISPASSION—DO SADHANA

Swami Sivananda

Awake, O aspirant! Do vigorous Sadhana. Burn all impurities. Attain illumination through meditation. Of what avail is enjoyment which is momentary? Seek the Bliss Eternal in your own Atma. How hollow is a sensuous life of carnal enjoyment! Therefore, shun sensual pleasures. Abandon the three K.—Kamini (lust), Kanchana (gold) and Kirti (fame). This world will not attract you. Make discrimination-cum-non-attachment your sword to cut the tree of Samsara. There is no greater glory, there is no greater joy, than that of a life of renunciation and perfect Tyaga. It is a grand life. Renunciation alone can make you fearless and happy.


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.
