GURU—THE DIVINE GUIDE

Swami Sivananda

Guru is the spiritual ladder to lift you up to the summit of perfection. Guru is the boat to take you to the other shore of fearlessness and immortality. Without the help of the Guru no Sadhana or Self-realization is possible. Guru's grace is Sadhana Sakti—power to do rigorous Sadhana or spiritual practice. If you have devotion to your Guru as for God, you will easily gain control and mastery over mind, and attain God-realization quickly and easily. The Guru is truly one with God. Living in close association with the Teacher, following his instructions in meditation and in the understanding of the scriptures, the aspirant learns to see God, the Soul of all souls, in all beings.


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

Sadhana is not any kind of bodily action that is outwardly directed, but is rather a state of mind, a condition of thinking, a consciousness in which one lives.
