HTML clipboard "Bhagavan Sri Krishna is the immortal manifestation of 
God in all His splendor, that man was ever given the fortune to behold. 
Man! Blessed thou art, that hast visualized with thy fleshly eyes the 
mighty Dignity of the Supreme Sovereign of the Universe! Thou art 
purified; thy birthright is to realize Him; thy fortune is a part of His 
Greatness! Sri Krishna may be called the "Collective Man", who 
represented all beings hungering and thirsting to gain the Highest 
Freedom and who voiced forth their deepest aspirations in the loudest 
possible tone. He came to release man from the thraldom of vice and 
correct his vision so that he could walk along the ever-illumined path 
to perfection. Sri Krishna is the articulation of the pure longings that 
are buried in the hearts of people. Sri Krishna is not merely a 
historical man who came and went, like others, but the Eternal Purusha 
who dwells even now and shall live in the everlasting future, in the 
core of all manifestation. It is the Symbol of the Absolute descended 
into relativity that we call Krishna, the ever-beloved protector of all 
that breathe and air."- Swami Sivananda << More>>

*Temptation: *“/Kamah krodhascha lobhascha dehe tisthanti taskarah 
jnanaratnapaharaya tasmat jagrata jagrata/—Lust anger and greed, they 
are dacoits to rob and plunder the pearl of wisdom, not coming from 
outside to assail or invade you, but residing within your own body. 
Therefore, be awake, be awake,” says Sankaracharya in Vairagya Dindima."
"We invite temptations; we go into that area where we are tempted. We 
cultivate the company of such persons who are our temptation, who are 
our downfall, who are the ones through whom these lower propensities 
assail us, by whom they are stimulated and made manifest".......

"Turn to God for help and you will receive it without fail, unfailingly. 
Turn to Him every day in meditation—meditation with faith, meditation 
with love, meditation with humility. And be on guard against these inner 
enemies to which you are host, inner enemies dwelling within your self, 
meaning you no good. This is the mystery of God and His creation, the 
great maya which is duratyaya (difficult to cross). Be on guard, never 
lay down arms, never give way. Always know that one day you have to 
overcome and you will overcome".- Swami  Chidananda <<

HTML clipboard HTML clipboard */Prana/ - *"The true meaning of /Prana/ 
is not only breath. The /Prana /is energy. It is universal power, 
brightness, light and intelligence. All these cosmic energies are named 
as /Prana./"/Yatkinchit Jagat Sarvam Drishyate Shruyatepiva/..This 
/Prana/ is filled in all that we see and hear, the inside and outside of 
all things, all movement etc. in this world.

The Prana is the source of all capabilities and the power in the 
universe. /Prana/ is the only power behind the normal functioning of the 
system of respiration (inhalation and exhalation), blood circulation, 
digestion, excretion of urine and stool, system producing semen, 
structure of our bones and also the nervous system.The working abilities 
of sensory organs and motor organs improve as each cell  gets extra 
nutrition. The secret of beauty of skin, shining of the face, brightness 
of the eyes, intelligence power and development of mental power is the 
result of the practice of Pranayama. The practice of Pranayama means 
oneness with cosmic energy. Pranayama Sadhana opens the doors of subtle 
life from the gross life "-  Swami Adhyatmananda. <<More>>

*Divya Tour 2012  of  Sri Swami Adhyatmananda *


"It was very hectic four day program at Chicago. Pujya Swamiji's day 
began at 4.00/4.30am(wake up call for host and Swamiji), starting from 
home for morning yoga at 5.45am until 10.30pm touching down at home, 
traveling from one place to the next attending devotees' request for 
Bhiksha, home visit, evening temple satsang etc but, when it is satsang 
time and swamiji start speaking, He was found ever fresh and in a 
different realm. Every word and every sentence He speaks enters right 
into the heart of listeners and has a message so inspiring and 
energizing" -sevak

To Swamiji, teaching of Bhagwad Geeta is the "Gospel of Swami 
Sivananda".   Simple Formula of Blissful living, in His words, “Be good, 
Do good, Be kind, Be compassionate, serve, love, be generous, be pure, 
be regular in your daily prayers and selfless service are the principle 
keys to live and lead blissful life.”

***Lord Krisha's utterence -  Geetamrutam *


Perform action, O Arjuna, being steadfast in Yoga, abandoning attachment 
and balanced in success and failure! Evenness of mind is called Yoga. (2:48)

Endowed with wisdom (evenness of mind), one casts off in this life both 
good and evil deeds; therefore, devote thyself to Yoga; Yoga is skill in 
action. (2:50)
The world is bound by actions other than those performed for the sake of 
sacrifice; do thou, therefore, O son of Kunti, perform action for that 
sake (for sacrifice) alone, free from attachment! (3:9)
Whatever thou doest, whatever thou eatest, whatever thou offerest in 
sacrifice, whatever HTML clipboard  thou givest, whatever thou 
practiseth as austerity, O Arjuna, do it as an offering unto Me!(9:27)
