"All Siva's followers live vibrantly in the eternity of the moment and flow with the river of life by giving up negative attachments, releasing the pains, injustices, fears and regrets that bind consciousness in the past."

Gurudeva

Gurudeva with Swami Durga Kali Jaya Das and Swami Ramayana Kali Baba. Gurudeva shared his insights on street people today with our guests explaining that many of them are so completely filled up with the past that there is no room for a future in their minds. Experiences and emotions attached to those experience completely consume there minds. So one part of the ministry to the street people is to help them to release all of that so they can move forward.

Brahmachari Soo Se Shiva: "I send out my pranams to all.

I found a new family here on the Paradise Island of Kauai at the ashram of Gurudeva. I have learned so much and experienced so much that will help me throughout my whole life. And I want to thank my Guru, my Ma, for giving me a chance to come here.

Love Soo Se Shiva."

Brahmachari Madhava: "Namaste Ma and to all my Gurubhais at Kashi. I love and miss you all and can't wait to see you again. I am having a wonderful time at Kauai Aadheenam, have learned a lot, and established new brothers here. It is spiritual journey. I will see you again soon. I love you Ma. Namaste

Love Madhava"

Brahmachari Shiva Kali: "Namaste Ma and to all my brothers and sisters at Kashi. Before I came to the most beautiful island in the world, I didn't realize that there could be another home for me other than at Kashi Ashram. My brothers here are taking wonderful care of me. Thank you so much, Ma, for allowing me to come to this wonderful ashram and sit at Gurudeva's Feet. I love and miss you very much. "
