*****Sri Ramnavmi **Utsav **- Swami Sivananda* ***( April 12,  2011)
*

The Name of Lord Rama is the greatest purifier of the heart. It wipes 
away all one's sins. Not only this, but it wipes away the sinful 
tendencies as well. The Name is sweeter than the sweetest of objects. It 
is the haven of peace. It is the very life of pure souls. It is the 
purifier of all purifying agencies. It quenches the consuming fire of 
worldly desires. It awakens the knowledge of God. It bathes the aspirant 
in the, ocean of divine bliss. Glory to Sri Rama and His Name!
Ram-Nam burns ignorance, passion and sin. With or without knowledge, 
correctly or incorrectly, when the word "Rama" is pronounced it showers 
a rain of good upon the devotee. - Swami Sivananda << More>>

*Sri Hanuman Jayanti  (April 14, 2011)*


"Hanuman was the living embodiment of the power of Ram-Nam. He was an 
ideal selfless worker, a true Karma Yogi who worked desirelessly. He was 
a great devotee and an exceptional Brahmachari or celibate. He served 
Sri Rama with pure love and devotion, without expecting any fruit in 
return. He lived only to serve Sri Rama."
  "Hanuman ranks first amongst the heroes of the world. His heroic 
deeds, wonderful exploits and marvelous feats of strength and bravery 
cannot be adequately described.He is a Chiranjeevi. He is everywhere. He 
who has eyes and devotion beholds him and receives his 
blessing"..... Swami Sivananda << More>>

*Early Morning Meditation Talks from Ponder These Truths by Sri Swami 
Chidananda*

*//*


    **

///*Dharma  Kshetra is Kkarma Kshetra*/

There is a concept in the Upanishads: When a thought arises that you 
know is contrary to the Law do not act, postpone it, brush it away. 
Direct your mind elsewhere. Engage yourself in doing something else. 
When a thought arises which is in consonance with/dharma/,//in 
accordance with/dharma/,//do not wait, do it immediately. Do not allow 
any interval to lapse, to intervene between your good intention and its 
corollary, the corresponding good action. Do it immediately. Great 
wisdom is behind this direction, wisdom deriving from experience. So in 
this trite saying, dharma/kshetra/is/karma kshetra/,//a world of meaning 
comes into being. Anything contrary to dharma should not be translated 
into action. It should not take the form of karma because it will 
rebound upon you in the form of sorrow. Whereas when any/dharmic/impulse 
or thought arises, immediately it should be translated 
into/karma/./Dharma kshetra/is/karma kshetra.- /Swami Chidananda<<

*OMKAR*- Omkar Sadhana is the Prana of Spiritual Sadhana. Omkar is the 
best Pranayam. The key to good health, long life and balanced life is 
the regular practice of Omkar.The practice of Omkar destroys Tamasik 
thoughts and converts the Rajasik thoughts into Sattvik thoughts. The 
practice of Omkar helps the seekers of medi­tation to concentrate the 
mind. There is a great contri­bution of Omkar to lead the mind on the 
spiritual path. -Swami Adhyatmananda<< More>>
