In 2024 during the period of Chaturmas, Swami Niranjanananda offered Guru Charitra, a series of satsangs dedicated to the tradition of brahma vidya gurus, and specifically to the tradition of our own Masters. As part of the Guru Charitra satsangs, Swamiji spoke about twelve unique qualities that Swami Sivananda embodied and lived in every moment of his life, exemplifying practical Advaita Vedanta.
In the year 2025, YOGA magazine will present these twelve qualities from different perspectives as understood, lived and taught by the Masters of the Satyananda Yoga tradition. These qualities are: seva, dharma, universal love, vairagya, tapasya, yoga, dhyana, self-enquiry, positive interaction, balanced life, faith and devotion. May every month be an inspiration to all spiritual aspirants to also live and express these qualities. In so doing, we honour and walk the luminous path shown to us by Sri Swami Sivananda, Sri Swami Satyananda, Swami Niranjanananda and Swami Satyasangananda.
