      "La méditation est l'unique voie royale conduisant au salut, a la libération (moksha). Elle calme toute peine, toute souffrance, les trois espèces de fièvres (tapas) et les cinq sortes de chagrins (kleshas). La méditation confère la vision de l'unité et procure la notion de l'unicité. La méditation est l'écoulement continu de la pensée de Dieu ou de l'Atman, comme le filet d'huile coulant d'un vase dans un autre. Elle est l'échelle mystérieuse qui relie la terre au ciel et élève l'aspirant jusqu'à l'immortelle demeure de Brahman."

      Its Mysteries and Control

      Fear not.The mind is no doubt extremely turbulent.Through repeated attempts you can perfectly subdue it. You are the master of the mind. By Abhyasa (practice/sadhana) and vairagya (renunciation) assert your mastery. Feel the power, bliss and splendour that results from perfect self-conquest. Curb the mind ruthlessly. Annihilate desire. When desire dies mind is your slave. Become desireless and be victorious. It will help you rest in prisitine freedom.

      This book is a compilation from the various published works of the holy master Sri Swami Sivananda, including some of his earliest works extending as far back as the late thirties. The questions and answers deal with some of the commonest but most vital, doubts raised by practicing spiritual aspirants. What invests these answers and explanations with great value is the authority, not only of the sage's intution,but also of his personal experience. Swami Sivananda was a sage whose first concern, even first love, shall we say, was the spiritual seeker, the Yoga student. Sivananda lived to serve them: and this priceless volume is the outcome of that Seva Bhav (service inclination) of the great Master.

    • This volume would rank foremsot among the works of Swami Sivananda .In this he has presented to the men and women of the present day world a theme that is dearest to his heart and that would transform men into gods and nations into paradise on earth. The keynote of Swami Sivananda's teachings is Righteousness in thought, word and deed, the cultivation of sterling character and the practice of Religion of the Heart. The author, in this book, gives a garland of all the virtues that should adorn every earnest Sadhaka: and the book is offered to the readers with sincere prayer that it might ennoble them and divinise them, make them better and more successful men and women who would make the world they live in a vast home of peace and brotherhood.

      The Bhagavadgita is one phase of the Tripod of Indian philosophy and culture, the other two phases being the Upanishads and the Brahmasutras. While the Upanishads lay the foundation of the loftiest reach possible for humanity and the Brahmasutras logically elucidate the intricate issues involved in the Upanishads, the Bhagavadgita blends together the Transcendent and the Immanent features of the Ultimate Reality, bringing together into an integrated whole knowledge and action, the inner and the outer, the individual and the society, man and God, all which are portrayed as facets of a Universal Operation, presenting entire life and all life as a perfectly complete organic wholeness, leaving nothing unsaid and attempting to solve every problem in life.

      Swami Sivanandaji Maharaj,as an exemplary Sannyasin,was one of the stalwarts in the spiritual field who considered the spirit of renunciation in a world of phantasmal presentations as of paramount importance.One would find that in all his writings there is an undercurrent of renunciation.Though he has tirelesly attempted in his various writings to present even to the novitate the true meaning of this supremely requisite qualification,namely,renunciation,one can safely conclude that there is no feature of spiritual life more misunderstood and misinterpreted than the demand for renunciation as a response to the call of the higher life.The illusion before the eyes of the man is so inscrutably constructed that not even the wisest of people have found it easy to extricate themselves from it's powerful cluthches penetrating into the vey vitals of one's being.This insistence on an interesting and improving factor in the leading of the truly spiritual life is to be considered the explanation for this book commencing at the outset with a not-much-known but awakening message through the first story.
