Memories of My Master

Rare film footage of Master Sivananda, one of India's powerhouse spiritual teachers, is one element that makes this video so special. Another is Sri Swami Satchidananda's description of His Master's place in Yoga's history as He talks about His first meeting with the Great Master, and tells stories of ashram life. Swami Satchidananda lovingly recalls life with His own spiritual teacher during a celebration of the 103rd anniversary of the birth of Sri Swami Sivananda Maharaj of Rishikesh, India.Master Sivananda, 1887 - 1963, was Spiritual Teacher to many of the great Yogis that are well known in the West today. They include Sri Swami Chidananda of the Divine Life Society, Sri Swamis Vishnu Devananda and Sivananda Radha of Canada, and Sri Swami Venkatesananda of South Africa.Emphasizing the depth of Master Sivananda's kindness, openness and generosity, Sri Gurudev also discusses the essence of Master Sivananda's teachings: Serve, Love, Give, Purify, Meditate, Realize. A spiritual treasure.
