MORALITY AND ETHICS

Swami Sivananda

That which appears good and justifiable on the surface due to an emotional spur may not be so from the viewpoint of a higher discrimination and knowledge. Hence, it is not safe to deviate from the standard of morality already set, though it may be modified by those who have Divine Realization. Ordinary human beings, however, should not fail to observe the moral rules very strictly. There is no harm in adhering to the absoluteness of morality but exceptions to this are not without the danger of self-deceit and mistake. When it is found that speaking truth may cause the death of somebody, silence should be observed at all cost.


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

The most effective way of growing into the divine nature is not so much by picking out your little weaknesses, as by filling yourself with virtues.
