INNER TRAINING

Swami Sivananda

Constant Japa and prayer will calm the mind and fill it with peace and bliss. Still the mind. Herein lies freedom and bliss eternal. Draw the mind inward. Hold it still to obtain the priceless Atmic treasure within. Tune the radio of mind to the voice of the Inner-self. Restrain the senses. Withdraw the mind. Fix it on the Lord. This is the essence of Sadhana. Negate the personality and affirm the Universality. This is Sadhana. This is Yoga. He who has controlled his mind will have an absolute free-will. To concentrate is to exclude every thought, but one. Through the practice of concentration and meditation you attain clarity of mind, increased grasping power, retentive memory, increased intelligence, confidence, optimism, peace of mind and control of mind and senses.


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

Let not preference become an overwhelming passion over you. A passion is a preference that has become wild, uncontrollable. A preference becomes a wish, a wish becomes a desire, a desire becomes a passion. Then you are no master, you are a slave. You become psychopathic to some extent. Then there is no sadhana; it is all gone. You become a slave of forces that are beyond your control.
