Guest guest Posted November 25, 2001 Report Share Posted November 25, 2001 Dear Members, I received this in an email yesterday. I know that some of our members are followers of Swami Sivananda and therefore post it here for their information. Miles His Holiness Sri Swami Krishnanandaji Maharaj of Sivananda Ashram, Rishikesh, who was one of the foremost disciples of Sri Swami Sivanandaji Maharaj of Rishikesh, passed away and attained Samadhi today, Friday, the 23rd of November, 2001 at 4:30pm at Sivananda Ashram. He had served as the General Secretary of the Divine Life Society founded by Sri Swami Sivanandaji Maharaj for more than forty years. He was a well-known Sannyasi all over Uttarakhand as one of the greatest Tapaswins, a great Virakta and Vairagi Sannyasi. He was one of the greatest living philosophers of the world after Dr. Sarvapalli Radhakrishna, and had a great mastery over both Indian and Western philosophy. His mortal body has been kept for the last view of His innumerable devotees and will be given Samadhi on Sunday, the 25th of November, 2001 in the forenoon. --The Divine Life Society Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
