“The prophet from the divine thunder roars;
The Sage within our soul whispers.
The next thousand years will be whatever you have chosen today to make of them.”

— Swami Veda Bharati in The Perennial in the Millennium

The 2019 Sangha Gathering at Swami Rama Sadhaka Grama (SRSG) is taking place at this time with sadhakas coming from around the globe. Articles and photos are coming next month and on social media in the meantime.

“In our sangha gathering, members of the world organization, the AHYMSIN organization will honor the Tradition with the dictum of Swami Rama: Love, Serve and Remember, and take steps to apply the vision that Swami Veda left with us to inspire our spiritual-lives for future generations.”- Swami Ritavan Bharati

Two videos with Swami Ritavan Bharati have been shared by Thaniya Kevalee. He wrote about the first video, “Swami Ritavan Bharati explained the silence motto during the retreat ‘Yoga of Life’, December 15-18, 2018, at Baan Phu Waan Sampran Nakhon Pathom.” And he wrote about the second video, “Swami Ritavan Bharati gave lecture about ‘Silence, A True Source of Inner Strength’ during the retreat ‘Yoga of Life’ on December 15-18, 2018, at Baan Phu Waan, Sampran, Nakhon Pathom, THAILAND.”

A video with Ashutosh Sharma has been shared by Thaniya Kevalee. He wrote about the video, “Why do we practice J&G (Joints & Glands) in our tradition? Most people do not have proper understanding about joints and glands exercises. Ashutosh has explained the real meaning and value of these exercises which are necessary and very beneficial for practitioners.”

Two videos with Stephen Parker (Stoma) were live-streamed on Facebook by Himalájai Jóga Tradició, the AHYMSIN centre in Budapest. One is a satsang from the last full moon meditation and the other is a book release event for the Hungarian translation of Clearing the Path.

A certificate for Swami Veda was recently received, Medha reports. The certificate is for honorary membership in the European Union of Yoga and calls Swamiji a goodwill ambassador of the EUY, an authority and focus point for promoting and transmitting the essence of yoga. The mahasamadhi of Swami Veda Bharati was 14 July 2015.

Events at SRSG for 2019 also include two Navaratri Pujas, Guru Purnima Retreat, 4th Anniversary of Swami Veda’s Mahasamadhi, Retreat for Initiates, Sri Vidya Seminar, Breath Retreat, and more.
