Throughout the ages, the world has been graced by the lives of luminaries, enlightened men and women who embody the highest human qualities. A number of portraits of these saints are displayed in Satchidananda Ashram-Yogaville’s Sri Swami Sivananda Centenary Hall and Sivananda Satsang Hall. These portraits depict only some of the remarkable saintly men and women whose lives and teachings have been a wellspring of inspiration to Sri Gurudev Swami Satchidananda and to his students.
In this booklet, you will find biographical sketches of these highly revered saints and sages, along with their basic teachings and uplifting stories. For no matter what path we may have chosen to follow, we have much to learn from their personal experiences and from their teachings.
There is no higher goal in life than to experience the Divine Peace that is beyond words.
May Sri Gurudev and all these celebrated leading lights inspire and guide us all to the Divine Peace that resides in our hearts.
