"Born on the 8th of Sept. 1887 into the family of the Sage Dikshita & other Saints,
Sri Swami Sivananda had a natural flair for a life devoted to the study & practice
of Vedanta. Added to this was an inborn eagerness to serve all and an innate feeling
of unity with all mankind.His passion for service drew him to the medical career; and soon he gravitated
to where he thought his service was most needed. He discovered that people
needed knowledge most of all: dissemination of that knowledge he espoused
as his own mission.It was Divine dispensation and the Blessing of God upon mankind that the Doctor
of body and mind renounced his career and took to a life of renunciation to
qualify himself for ministering to the soul.He settled in Rishikesh in 1924, practiced intense austerities and shone as a
great Yogi, Saint, Sage and Jivanmukta.To read his works is to drink at the fountain of Wisdom Supreme. On the 14th of
July 1963 he entered Mahasamadhi. "For more information, please
