SATYANANDASHRAM HELLAS®
Regular and Honorary Members’ Newsletter

Christmas 2024

“We are living in an age of change: One could say that change is a key word of this day and
age: continuous breakthroughs in technology, the current state of affairs in Eastern Europe,
changes to the earth’s environment, attempts to unify the main religions worldwide as well
as many other factors, all point to this simple word : change
It is becoming more and more difficult for man to adapt to this ever-changing world. He must
find, and very soon, a center within which is not affected by the ups and downs of the world
that surrounds him or his inner mind. There will always be moments of happiness and sadness,
prosperity and loss, good health and bad. Life is just an amalgamation of the two.
We must learn to live with both, realize the need to have both kinds of experience for our
evolution. This is the way of a Hero: To know that whatever happens, happens for one’s own
good.
Let us walk in the coming year with this faith, with this conviction that we will not find ourselves
in any situation that will not contribute to our spiritual development, nor will something happen
to us that will not be for our ultimate good”.
Swami Sivamurti Saraswati

„There are times when we all get sick of these changing experiences, the changing seasons of life.
You want everything to be pleasant, but please refrain! This is all you need to know about
the coming year. Yes, this is all: that, No, love is not everything, but hate is also part of it.
Happiness and unhappiness are two sides of the same coin. This should be your resolution;
this should be your philosophy for the New year, ahead“.
Paramahamsaji
