Welcome to the Swami Venkatesananda Website celebrating the life & teachings of Swami Venkatesananda

   Both a renowned Sanskrit scholar and yogi, Swami Venkatesananda - like his master, Swami Sivananda - can be regarded as a sage of practical wisdom.

   Focusing on issues that concern the daily practice of all branches of yoga (Hatha, Karma, Bhakti, Raja and Jnana), as well as giving guidance in how to avoid common obstacles on the spiritual path, this web site provides access to lectures, discussions and daily readings.

   Our thanks to our good friends for helping us digitize the Chiltern Yoga Trust's edition of The Bhagavad Gita, Song of God, with the entire edition added to the site on June 17th, 2008. If you are interested in having your own paperback edition of this Bhagavad Gita, then please contact us by email to request ordering information.

   See our MP3 Libraries for Talks on The Upanishads (mp3 audio), six talks given by Swami Venkatesananda in 1980 in Perth, Australia for the Chiltern Yoga Trust and and Gita Talks: The Sixth Chapter

   We have added the complete set of talks given at Yasodhara in 1975 in our MP3 library. They are an amazing collection of talks and we recommend them to anyone interested in a deeper understanding of yoga. Simply click on the MP3 library for free access to each of the following sections in the series: Hatha Yoga, Karma Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, Raja Yoga and Jnana Yoga.  

Today, Dec 2nd, 2009 marks the 27th year since Swami Venkatesananda's passing. Those who knew him will ever be changed by the experience, both changed and deeply humbled! Those of you have only this web site to get to know him by will, with some effort on your part, will also be infinitely rewarded. A real yogi is very hard thing to find in this world. Those who discover this are fortunate indeed. Hari Om Tat Sat!   

ALSO, this message was just received via E-mail from Swami Sushilananda:
"That day, twenty-seven years ago today -- I was there. I believe that he conveyed blessings to me, as a representative of ALL his beloved friends, known and unknown. Blessings don't die. They are there for us still."
