“In my own spiritual journey, I became a swami on the Hindu path of Bhakti. In the Hindu tradition, a swami is a monk who forgoes regular family life for the purpose of making the whole world his family and channels his full energy into spiritual practice, devotion to God and service to humanity.” WorldWholeSpiritualPurposeHumanityEnergyMy OwnPracticePathJourneyTraditionDevotionWhole WorldMonkFamily LifeSpiritual JourneySpiritual PracticeService To HumanityBhaktiDevotion To God Author:Radhanath Swami
“Spiritual power is generated within temple walls, and sent out to bless the world ... Every home penetrated by the temple spirit enlightens, cheers, and comforts every member of the household. The peace we covet is found in such homes. Indeed, when temples are on earth, the whole world shares measurably in the issuing light; when absent, the hearts of men become heavy, as if they said, with the people of Enoch's day, 'Zion is fled'" (See Moses 7:69).” PeopleIfsMenWorldHeartSaidWholeHomeLightEarthSpiritualSpiritFoundShareWallComfortMembersHeavyWhole WorldTemplesBlessCheerHouseholdThey SaidAbsentEnlighteningMosesSpiritual PowerZion Author:John Andreas Widtsoe
