You are the fragile perhaps forgotten the betrayed and the endangered, you are the vulnerable yet a vessel for wisdom-primordial and a life hidden from freedom over time. You are the uncertain and unknown neglected soul and a soul ambiguous. Yet you are a visionary a myth-dreamer dancer and a pathfinder of subtle dimensions and primal energies.

You are the “yes” and the shaman of mutual salvation, a monumental miniature of messiah and one light-breather meditating in the cavern of…

Dear all,  

Question: “Today’s society seems to be in a very bad condition as never seen before. What is the reason for this?”

Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji:

“It is only men who form the Society. Today, individual discipline has become a big question mark. Therefore, society will also be indisciplined only.

Responsible parents bring up their children in a disciplined way. They do not like their children reading unwanted, useless…

The reason I'm sure

Dear All,

Girish Chandra Ghosh was a man full of vices. Name the vice and he had it. However, he had deep affection for Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa. Ramakrishna asked him to chant the Lord's Divine Name every morning and evening. Girish Chandra Ghosh said, I cannot. It is not possible for me to chant the Divine Name every morning and evening



Paramahamsa said, "Well! Chant it just before…

I have tickle in my toes 

That makes me dance down the street. 

I have a giggle in my belly 

That makes me hug all I see. 

I have a source in my heart 

That spreads love into the world.  

I know the Joy of Spirit 

That's why I laugh in my soul. 

I have Joy in living 

So I celebrate the Light.

I send this to those who are interested in healing:

I pray that stones will speak and wind will listen listing the heavy properties of stone into the warm light…

Dear All,

A hen lays her eggs and sits on it to hatch it. By the touch of the hen the egg is hatched and the chickens come out of the eggs. Likewise, the Guru touches his disciples and this activates the spiritual fervour in them.

Many young boys used to visit Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa. Suddenly these young boys would stop visiting him. Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa would feel disturbed and when the boys visited him after a gap would question them, 'why have…

Earth is Our Common Home

Rene Wadlow

My life is interwoven

with countless other lives,

human and non-human;

together we create the wholeness

that is earth.

I cannot be except as part

of that wholeness;

because of that wholeness

I am a world citizen.

In humanity,

Life becomes especially conscious of itself.

It can reflect upon who it…

WISHING ALL OF YOU A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR 2013. MAY YOUR DREAMS AND WISHES COME TRUE. WITH HEALTH, WEALTH AND HAPPINESS.

When you call yourself an Indian or a Muslim or a Christian or a European, or anything else, you are being violent. Do you see why it is violent? Because you are separating yourself from the rest of mankind. When you separate yourself by belief, by nationality, by tradition it breeds violence. So a man who is seeking to understand violence does not belong to any country, to any religion, to any political party or partial system, he is concerned with the total understanding of mankind. – J.…

Dear Friends,



May the grace of Gurudev Swami Sivananda illumine the New Year, with brightness and radiance of hope, aspiration and inspiration.



At the dawn of this New Year, I wish to remind you of Gurudev's message of Divine Life. Live a life of selflessness and service unto all beings. Worship God with devotion and develop Divine Love.



Meditate upon the Supreme Being regularly each day without fail.…

This is what I have to say: practice quiet. Stop chasing your tail and substituting dizziness for natural ecstasy. Also: discipline yourself to move slower and sometimes to be still. Look, listen, feel—then think about what you are gathering.

Practice silence, but as part of being alert. Be subtle and be sensitive. Then when you know it is time to give your soul expression, be as definite as rolling thunder. Do not fear the storm of compassion denouncement. Such is in quest of…
