***Remembering "**Sannyasa Diksha" day of Holy Master Sri Swami 
Sivanandaji Maharaj ( June 1, 2011)*


"The power that sprang out of his renunciation has outspread into the 
world, and has brought new life, hope, solace, light, strength, joy and 
inspiration to literally countless millions of souls. His renunciation 
can rightly be said to be an offering to God, to appease the spiritual 
hunger of His soul-famished children. It has indeed become transformed 
into the spirit of Divine Life to pervade the modern world in the form 
of a divine urge, a divine impulse towards virtue, goodness and 
godliness." << More>> <http://divyajivan.org/sivananda/index.htm>

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

*//*

Faith Hope and Charity*
*

" Faith, hope and charity—never let go of these. Always let them be 
enshrined within you—faith in the Supreme, hope for yourself and charity 
towards all."

"Thus finish your journey and you will attain the Goal. The journey will 
take you to your destiny—your divine destiny, the fulfillment of which 
is the most important thing in life. All other things come afterward; 
they are secondary. In this way, understand your life, understand 
yourself, understand your relationship to the Maker, and understand your 
relationship to the rest of creation."

"May you ponder these cardinal points of your life’s journey—charity 
towards God’s creatures, absolute hope about yourself, and absolute 
faith in the Being Who has brought you into being, Who has placed you 
among His creatures, so that you may become like Him and you can attain 
Him as your supreme Goal!"/- /Swami Chidananda << More>>

Primary Yogasana (Yoga Postures)

The Physical techniques of Yoga are the stepping stones to meditation. 
According to Patanjali, Yoga is the cessation of the modifications of 
the mind.

  In the beginning the primary prerequisite to peace of mind is posture. 
Yogasana practiced to gain steady posture, health and lightness in the 
body. All Yoga postures are intended to directly or indirectly quiet the 
mind. The majority of Asana have been devised to build up different 
parts of the body and to develop the strength required by the more 
advanced Physical disciplines. The purpose of the yogasana is to 
recondition the system, both mind and body, and to develop the nervous 
and glandular systems. The different Yoga postures have been devised to 
bring a rich supply of blood to the brain and to the various parts of 
the spinal column. The yogasana work by stretching, bending and twisting 
the spinal column in different directions to promote the health of the 
nerves. When the body is purified, Prana (vital energy) can be conserved 
and the individual becomes healthy and conscious. << More>>

*Wisdom Sparks*


"Sanyasa is not a thing to be received from or given to anybody. It is a 
dedication of our entire being to the Lord and His Service. It is a 
spontaneous wave of aspiration rising from within your own heart." -Papa 
Ramdas

"You must literally live renunciation. This is the way of all 
attainment. This is the key to true and lasting happiness and peace. 
This is the secret of world-welfare and universal happiness. In 
renunciation lies the end of all strife and hatred. In renunciation lies 
the source of true peace and progress. Renunciation is the path that 
leads to friendliness, co-operation and unity. Renounce selfishness, 
greed, hatred and egoism. Embrace love, humility, contentment and 
charity."  - Swami Chidananda

" Renunciation is getting rid of egoism, desires and cravings. When all 
the desires are annihilated, then this very mortal becomes 
Immortal.Cultivate dispassion and discrimination and quench the fire of 
desire. Renounce desires and cravings, be ever blissful. Nothing except 
renunciation can give you Moksha".- Swami Sivananda
