Swamaji's Mahasamadhi Day 2019

As celebrated every year on July 14,this year was also celebrated with utmost devotion and was a grand success.On this day, we commemorate the swamiji's teachings and culminate Hatha yoga,Bhakti yoga and Jnana yoga.

We started the day off with the reciting of the mahamrityunjaya mantra followed by rudra chanting intended to propagate the thought of living in this life happily being devoid of any attachments

This is done by reciting the mantra :

'oṃ tryaṃbakaṃ yajāmahe sugandhiṃ

puṣṭivardhanam urvārukamiva

bandhanān mṛtyo rmuk

ṣīya mā'mṛtāt'

This was followed by a delicious satwik breakfast prepared & served by our very own students

The evening program started off with a session of meditation followed by a relaxing session of bhajans.

The bhajans are done with a

light dance in order to forget

our egos and our daily woes.

This was followed by reading a page from swamiji's daily reading as a message from the late Swami Sivananda.

Bhajans are a form of bhakti yoga which helps us free ourselves and gives us good vibrations and surrounds us with positive energy.

This event was followed by the cultural program with a variety of programs:

To conclude the program a vote of thanks was given by Mahesh Prabhu sir followed by a delicious dinner provided by kamakshi caterers.
