PRECEPTS FOR PRACTICE

Swami Sivananda

Have the constant awareness of the divine Presence. This will lead to the transformation of the soul, making it receptive of all that God has to give you. There must be integral knowledge, integral personality, integral culture and an integral experience of the Divine. See and feel the unity of jnana and bhakti. Faith is the seed; divine grace is the rain; prayer is the plough; self-surrender is the rein; worship is the handle; meditation is the ox; devotion is the goal; ploughing is weeding 'I-ness' and 'mineness'; the harvest is God-realization, which removes all sorrows and pains and bestows everlasting peace, joy and eternal satisfaction.

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

How can you concentrate and meditate when the mind is revolting from inside? It may not revolt outwardly, but it will revolt inwardly, and an inward revolt is more serious than an outward revolt. People who openly speak ill of you are not as dangerous as those who inwardly dislike you and stab you without your knowledge.
