About the Twenty Important Spiritual Instructions :

Swami Sivananda gave us twenty important spiritual instructions for the harmonizing of an active inner spiritual life with an active outer secular life. The instructions give the key to peace and happiness even while living in the world and through the world itself. They pave the way to a life of peace and happiness in the most practical and secure way.

About the resolve form:

Taking resolutions concerning spiritual life is a part and parcel of every spiritual aspirant’s life.
Resolutions are taken for the purpose of making progress and living up to our ideals and expectations. You will learn how to choose your own resolutions in a way which will ensure your safe and successful progress.

About the spiritual diary:

The spiritual diary is important for the keeping up of daily routine and for the purpose of self- analysis.
Swami Sivananda created a spiritual diary which includes every aspect of spiritual Sadhana or practice.
You will learn how to work with the diary and how to adapt it to your own needs and circumstances.
