Testimonial by His Holiness Swami Jyotirmayananda

 

Adorations!

 

I am very pleased to know that you are doing a great service to humanity by disseminating the spiritual knowledge of integral yoga with special emphasis on bhakti (devotion to God). Love of God is the most effective remedy for all the unrest and turmoils of the modern world.

 

The Godward movement must touch and transform every part of one’s personality … action by karma yoga, emotion by bhakti yoga, will by raja yoga (ashtanga yoga), and reason by jnana yoga. Thus, every day life must become a blend of the symphony of the four yogas … karma, bhakti, dhyana and jnana.

 

Our guru, Sri Swami Sivanandaji Maharaja was never tired singing: “serve, love, give, purify, meditate, realize, be good, do good, be kind, be compassionate.” This sums up the teachings of integral yoga.

 

Your beautiful book “Yoga Union with Reality” contains all the essential insights into the major and minor aspects of yoga. May God shower His choicest blessings on you and the spiritual seekers.

 

 

With regards Prem and Om,

 

His Holiness Swami Jyotirmayananda
