I am a life~long Brahmacharini and Initiate of the Ramakrishna Vedanta Order. After serving my Gurudeva Swami Shraddhanandaji Maharaj in the Vedanta Society Of Sacramento for 2 years, my Gurudeva initiated me, when young, into Sacred Mantra Diksha Brahmacharya and gave me the name Shivani, in the Summer of 1977. I remained as Swami Shraddhanandaji's personal attendent until his entering into final Maha Samadhi in 1996. I served the Temple Ashrama and Gardens of the Vedanta Society in all ways, and my Gurudeva from early morning until late at night with no vacation {i did not want a vacation}. I was given the name Shivani by my Gurudeva because I have the nature of a "female" Shiva. My temperment is ViJnani. Advaita Jnana and Prema Bhakti Merged Into One. I also resonate deeply with Pashupati Shiva "The Lord Of Animals~Creatures". I am dedicated to Vegan Ahimsa. I am a devotee of Sri Ramakrishna as well as Shiva and Shakti. Kali Puja... Durga Puja ... Jagaddhatri Puja ...Lalita Puja ...Lakshmi Puja ... Sarasvati Puja etc. and study of India's Tantric Texts {for me non~sexual} and Chandi, all concerning Devi are very important. Daily I accompanied my Gurudeva walked many circumambulations around the many acres of the Ashrama and its verdent Gardens replete with many huge Trees {many exotic Trees from India also} the trails and the flower gardens... outdoor altars to Shiva... Shankara... bigger than life~size light blue Krishna standing playing flute etc. Two very large lotus ponds. Fruit trees. And, a large Organic vegetable garden {which for awhile I planted and tended alone} Daily, as my Gurudeva and myself walked thus...he had me do vedic sanskrit chanting from sacred texts, from memory alone, in correct meter and intonation, continually without a break. {some of the sacred vedic etc. texts mentioned above} My Foundation is Advaita...Shiva...Shankara's Works.... and Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa ~ Sri Sarada Devi and Swami Vivekananda etc. I Love the Vedas * Upanishads * Rig Veda * Chandi * Vivekachudamani * Yoga Vashishta * Patanjali * Shiva and Devi Puranas * Rama Gita * Ashtavraka Samhita * Puranas etc. * I have studied Sanskrit many years. I have had article published in India international Ramakrishna Vedanta magazine: "Vedanta Keshari" entitled "Sri Ramakrishna: The Master Tapasvin" and given talk on Sri Sarada Devi in Vedanta Temple on Her Birthday Celebration at the Vedanta Society of Sacramento CA. I have transcribed countless taped lectures of my Gurudeva also into articles for publication. I also yearly wrote, compliled and typed up all information delivered at the Vedanta Society annual meeting report of all the Vedanta Societies Activities ect. of each year, it is attended by many Swami's from other Vedanta Societies. I have a Hinduism {but not much time to continually attend to it}: RamakrishnaVedantaSannyasini my name: Shivani Sannyasini my location: USA my anamayakosha age: late forties I hope that this introduction fulfills the requirements. *~Jai Kali Ma !
