Satsang with Sri Swami Satchidananda: Service and Surrender
Recorded on: July 25, 1981
Running time: 56 minutes
Format: DVD
Selfless service, dedication and surrender to the Divine are the secrets to success on the spiritual path. In fact, they are requirements for true success in life. So vital are they to the spiritual seeker that Sri Patanjali, the codifier of Yoga, discusses them in depth three different times in his Yoga Sutras.
This is the lesson we learn also from the world: running after things will not make us happy always. The more we run after, the more we hold onto, the more we suffer. When we have had enough, we drop our efforts and our desires, surrender ourselves and the grace of the Divine comes to save us.
Recorded on the occasion of the 15th anniversary of Sri Swami Satchidananda's (Sri Gurudev's) service in the United States, this DVD contains His guidance about the path of surrender as He humbly describes His own life and relationship to the Divine.
