Guest guest Posted May 6, 2001 Report Share Posted May 6, 2001 Om Namo Bhagavate Sivanandaya! Om Namo Bhagavate Chidanandaya! Om Namo Bhagavate Krishnanandaya! Namaste! Two new items have been uploaded to Sri Swami Krishnanandaji's website. The first is the "Mundaka Upanishad". Among the Upanishads, the Mundaka is regarded as one of the most important. It throws a flood of light on the Jnana Marga (path of Knowledge) and leads the aspirant to the highest rung in the ladder of Jnana. The second is a poem titled "Hanuman in Lanka". These articles can be accessed from: http://www.swami-krishnananda.org/ Two new books by Sri Swami Krishnanandaji have been released at the Sivananda Ashram. They are "Sadhana the Spiritual Way" and "Mundaka Upanishad". They can be purchased from our online bookstore at: http://www.SivanandaDlshq.org/books.htm Paypal, our credit card processing agent, has begun to accept credit cards from a few more countries including India. You can go to our website above for the updated list. A wonderful Divine Life Society site in Spanish has been launched by Teresa Decker and Enrique Gallinal. This is at: http://www.geocities.com/dlsenespanol/ I will be away in Iceland and Greenland for my research work until late June. During this period Sri Navin Dasji will be managing our mailing list. Sri Navin Dasji's e-mail address is navin. Please also send a copy to navin_ when corresponding. Yours in the service of Gurudev, Pannir -------------------- ON ADMISSION TO THE ASHRAM: "Narayana Swamiji, you know, there is a Brahmachari who has today come from South India. It appears he knows a lot about cement work. He met a Sadhu on his way and got initiation from him into Brahmacharya. He appears to be a decent young man. Let him remain here. I have told him that he will have to work also, and he has readily agreed." Due to several reasons it had been decided to restrict admission of aspirants into the Ashram. Therefore, when the Master gave the above instructions, everyone present felt uneasy, perhaps at the thought that the Brahmachari may not be admitted by the Ashram committee. The Master sensed their feelings and said, "You cannot judge at the very first sight whether an aspirant will turn out to be good or not. Paramanandaji also came in this manner and later on he proved to be a dynamic selfless worker. Several others came, and they left also because they had neither the zeal to work nor the aspiration to tread the spiritual path. My policy has always been this: let the doors of the Ashram be open to all. The undesirables will either go away of their own accord or be sent away by someone or the other in the Ashram. It is all His business." -------------------- "Concentrate your entire attention on the work on hand. Live this day well. Yesterday has joined the hoary past, a finished product upon which you need bestow no more attention. Tomorrow is yet a long way off and it will bring with it time enough for its work. Forget the past, ignore the future. Live in the present; the future will take care of itself." - Swami Sivananda -------------------- Sivananda Day-to-day is sent out weekly.
