Due to the severe drought conditions that prevail in our country and the subsequent shortage of drinking water in many areas, Divine Life Society of South Africa is embarking on a drive to provide much-needed relief in the form of bottled water. Donors and devotees who wish to participate in this undertaking are kindly requested to call at our office at Sivanandashram Reservoir Hills, contact one of the Society's branches or approach one of our fund-raisers.

All over the world, the old year has just now passed out and a New Year has commenced. Through the age-long association of ideas, time has come to have a peculiar efficacy for all beginnings, fresh endeavours, new resolves and turning over a new leaf. It is the most propitious time. Make full use of this psychological moment. Do not lose this opportunity.

Dear Spiritual Darling

Greetings in the Name of the Lord!

We have come to the end of yet another year. We pray that all went well at school/ university. You are looking forward to the summer vacation, no doubt!

“We, the younger generation, were not as fortunate to have been in the presence of such a great Swami as Swami Sahajananda but we will always remember him and be grateful to him for following Gurudev’s instructions by providing us with the best facilities in the world for our spiritual growth. We will not forget Swamiji and we will ensure that his legacy and his work continue for generations to come.” These are the words of the Spiritual Darlings of Sivananda Sunday School of Reservoir Hills at Pujya Swami Sahajananda’s 8th Mahasamadhi Anniversary which was observed on Thursday, 10 December (English Calendar) at Sivanandashram, Reservoir Hills. On Monday, 14 December the function was also observed according to the Sanskrit Calendar at the same venue. It attracted devotees from all parts of the province.
