Deepavali , A Festival of light, Joy & Illumination ( October23, 2014)
by Sri Swami Sivananda
"The sun does not shine there, nor do the moon and the stars, nor do
lightnings shine and much less fire. All the lights of the world cannot
be compared even to a ray of the inner light of the Self. Merge yourself
in this light of lights and enjoy the supreme Deepavali"
"O Ram! The light of lights, the self-luminous inner light of the Self
is ever shining steadily in the chamber of your heart. Sit quietly.
Close your eyes. Withdraw the senses. Fix the mind on this supreme light
and enjoy the real Deepavali, by attaining illumination of the soul."
"May you all attain full inner illumination! May the supreme light of
lights enlighten your understanding! May you all attain the
inexhaustible spiritual wealth of the Self! May you all prosper
gloriously on the material as well as spiritual planes!"

Early Morning Meditation Talks from " Ponder These Truths " by Sri
Swami Chidananda
"Surrender"
" It is our ego-sense that we surrender, the idea "I am doing." We
surrender our self-will and put ourselves into His hands, so that we act
as He dictates, we act as He teaches. So action is there, but no more
self-will, no more action prompted by the mind, but action according to
the will of God, according to the wisdom teachings of God and His saints."
When you put yourself under the will of God and His wisdom teachings,
then you are a self-controlled person. You will not allow the senses to
do whatever they wish or the mind to do whatever it wishes - Swami
Chidananda.<<More>> <http://divyajivan.org/ponder_these_truths/index.htm>

Deepavali Greetings by Sri Swami Adhyatmananda
Radiant Immortal Divinities,
Hari Om ! Om Namo Narayanaya!
Loving Pranams ! Happy Diwali !
May Almighty Lord and Sri Gurudev H. H. Sri Swami Sivanandaji Maharaj's
grace be ever upon you all! May you all rejoice in the Lord, Sing His
Divine Name and abide in Him ! He is HERE and NOW.
Days, months and years come and go. We too grow old. Day by day our
energy level comes down. But, so what ? Our understanding grows more and
more. Our clarity and concept of life becomes more and more clear. The
meaning at the end of the life is brightening each day more and
illumining more, vibrantly in every breath.
Seek that eternity of eternal unfading beauty of the Prana, The very
cosmic energy. When there was no Sun, Moon, Jupiter or Saturn, when
there were no earth, fire or water, these Prana and sky were there.
So, in the light of this tiny lamp delight in Eternity of Absolute
Reality, feel that I am walking in the Light, in the light, in the
light of Lord, in the Light of the Lord. This Light is your very nature.
You are the Light of the Light, the Joy of the Joy and Peace of the
Peace. You are born Divine. Seek the Refuge of Prana, the Cosmic Energy
within you . You will abide in that very Divinity and that is the only
very aim of your life.
May God Gurudev bless you in all the efforts and in the right direction
of your Life Divine! God be With all of you!
Shine and prosper, Happy Diwali!
Thy Own Self,
Swami Adhyatmananda

On "Health Topics" from a Book " Yoga & Health " by Sri Swami Adhyatmananda
Osteoporosis : What Is Oseoporosis ? How Does the Osteoporosis Treated &
Prevented? Does Practice of Flexibility exercises & Yogasana help ?
Which Yogasana is recommended?
Osteoporosis is a condition characterized by the loss of the normal
density of bone, resulting in fragile bone. Osteoporosis leads to
literally abnormally porous bone that is more compressible like a
sponge, than dense like a brick. This disorder of the skeleton weakens
the bone causing an increase in the risk for breaking bones (bone
fracture). Here the importance of proper nutrition can't undermined.
Regular practice of flexibility exercises, Yogasana and Pranayama is
essential for prevention and treatment of Osteoporosis. <<More>>

Gitamrutam
To those men who worship Me alone, thinking of no other, of those ever
united, I secure what is not already possessed and preserve what they
already possess.(9:22)
Fix thy mind on Me; be devoted to Me; sacrifice unto Me; bow down to Me;
having thus united thy whole self with Me, taking Me as the Supreme
Goal, thou shalt verily come unto Me.( 9:34)
Fix thy mind on Me, be devoted to Me, sacrifice to Me, bow down to Me.
Thou shalt come even to Me; truly do I promise unto thee, (for) thou art
dear to Me.(18:65)
Abandoning all duties, take refuge in Me alone; I will liberate thee
from all sins; grieve not. (18:66)
