Yogaswami's Home in Sri Lanka
Everyone is inspired to be seeing the locations in Sri Lanka where our Parampara lived. Sivayogapathy from Toronto sends us photos today of Yogaswami’s Samadhi in Columbuthurai. (Note: we are not exactly sure of the locations of the shrines shown in each photo….)
This is the shrine with Yogaswami’s Thiruvadi. His ashes are buried in the ground underneath the shrine.
This room contains his bed and wheelchair
Moving on to the Sivathondan Nilaiyam which Yogaswami founded as his center in Jaffna.
Cows are enjoying the shade here an live in peace.
Another one of our friends in the area.

Bodhinatha's Latest Upadesha: "Detachment from Experiences; Importance of Daily Vigil" (May 5, 2013)
All experiences are good experiences, necessary to get us here. Awareness of aspects of ourselves that are constantly changing is a liberating perception, breaking our chains to mundane areas, detaching from instinctive and intellectual to go into superconscious. The greatest challenge facing youth today is the lack of relating to the devotional side of Hinduism. Daily practice, daily vigil, moves us forward spiritually. Commentary on Merging with Siva, The Master Course, Lesson 21.
