At The Ashram, we're so fortunate to be immersed in Nature's beauty. And just outside our window, we get to see her animals too...just like this little guy 🙂 @TheAshram_spn #TheAshram #AshramLife #shreepeethanilaya #BhaktiMarga ___________________________________ #bird #nature #animal #vogel #natur #freedom #ashram #experience #explore #BhaktiYoga #Bhakti #Love #Divine #spirituality #spiritual #photooftheday #photography #canon #cute #instagood #birds #birdsofinstagram #wildlife #birdphotography

Becoming a yogi doesn’t mean that only when there is a serene place you can sit and meditate. A yogi can meditate while sitting on a bus or in the middle of a crowd. Wherever you are, you are in connection with the Divine. You are part of this connection and you carry it inside of you. ∞ Timeless wisdom based on teachings of @paramahamsa_vishwananda. @TheAshram_spn #TheAshram #shreepeethanilaya #BhaktiMarga #ashramlife ___________________________________ #yogi #quote #inspiration #ashram #experience #BhaktiYoga #Bhakti #Love #Divine #spirituality #spiritual #quoteoftheday #yoga #yogaeverydamnday #meditation #yogalife #yogalove #health #motivation #instayoga #mindfulness #meditate #peace #meditation

The mantra OM Namo Narayanaya is the highest mantra of the Sri Sampradaya and represents the means to salvation in this current age. Many saints, including Paramahamsa Vishwananda, have said that the chanting of the Divine Names is the only means to liberation in the modern age and so the mantra appears in the logo as a reminder of this great pillar of our spiritual life. @TheAshram_spn #TheAshram #AshramLife #shreepeethanilaya #BhaktiMarga ___________________________________ #mantra #chant #focus #salvation #sampradaya #narayana #liberation #ashram #experience #explore #BhaktiYoga #Bhakti #Love #Divine #spirituality #spiritual #photooftheday #photography #yoga #meditation #happiness #mindfulness #meditate #peace #gratitude

Celebrating the New year 2020 – Paramahamsa Vishwananda (link in bio) On 31 December, New Year's Eve celebrations began in the temple with a record number of guests attending! A video showing the special events of 2019 at SPN was shown, and then more bhajans, until the final arati with clay lamps for everyone. Gurudev gave a short satsang to inspire everyone about the year to come. Just after midnight, the crowd moved to the vegetable garden for a very loud and exciting display of fireworks to usher in 2020, and then the traditional dancing in the tent continued until 4 am. Morning prayers began at 10:00, and as is His tradition in previous years, @paramahamsa_vishwananda performed abhishekam to His personal deities, and then allowed everyone to come and offer water one by one. With bhajans going the entire time, Guruji gave blessings to all, and another satsang about not being lazy on the spiritual path. 🙂 Happy 2020, Everyone! @TheAshram_spn #TheAshram #AshramLife #shreepeethanilaya #BhaktiMarga _______________________________ #ashram #evolve #experience #explore #BhaktiYoga #Bhakti #Love #Divine #spirituality #spiritual #photooftheday #photography #paramahamsavishwananda #TheAshram

After I had lived in The Ashram for a year and worked for 1.5 years outside, I had the opportunity to live at The Ashram again. Now that I'm back, I see even more the hidden beauty in all the details I hadn't noticed at first. There was one day where everything was put in perfect place by simply attentive observation and enjoyment of what the Divine was giving me. I was walking outside on this sunny day when I heard the gentle bell ringing of a sacred ritual. A moment later I heard mystical Sanskrit chanting of somebody practising, followed immediately by someone singing a bhajan and playing the harmonium. Walking to the garden, the peacock with its beautiful feathers crossed my path and then, sitting in the garden, I just observed the surroundings and the magnificent nature which increased the feeling of harmony. Coming back to my room and walking through the corridor, I heard the mystical sound of OM coming from the OM Chanting circle group, and, just a few moments later, I spoke with a bhakta about inspiring stories of saints. When evening prayers started, I could sing for God and enjoy the amazing music which vibrated in all my cells. Finally, in my room for the evening, I heard the crowd outside singing for Vitthala, the arati for Shirdi Sai Baba, and I just had the feeling, 'yes, this is my home now'. There was no thought needed of how to describe this place more beautifully because, just by being as it is in daily life, it is already special. Here I can connect to the Divine on so many levels. The Ashram is a place where the Divine is in full interaction with everyone; you can touch it, smell it, feel it and embrace it in your heart. The Divine is manifested in so many forms that we can inspire ourselves just by being here, and then we can bring this joy and inspiration back into the world.
