Svaroopa® Vidya Ashram Board of Directors
Our Ashram’s year-end fundraiser theme is “Shine with Divine Light.”
Please join me in donating with a one-time amount or starting a monthly donation, or increasing your current monthly amount. Any gift will help your Ashram shine its Divine Light brighter into the world.
Kindly take a look at our Vision and Mission statements at the bottom of all our emails. Our Vision is “To engage in and teach the worship of Paramashiva, the all-pervasive Divine Reality, focusing on finding and experiencing the Divine within the individual.”
Our Mission Statement explains how we do that. It says “We provide yoga and meditation programs, teacher training and a vowed order. As a conduit of Grace in an ancient yogic lineage, we serve seekers of Self-Realization.”
This means our fundraising theme, Shine with Divine Light, is what we do. Gurudevi Nirmalananda, our Master Teacher, says
It’s about shining in a way that you help others find their own light.
Think of the world and everyone as a string of lights. Not all the lights are shining or functioning at their full wattage. The Svaroopa® Sciences help you look inside so you find the source that powers your light to its fullest. Once you are sourced this way, you in turn affect others in your circle.
How many lights can turn on or shine brighter? Your donation will help us to provide the opportunity for you and others to “Shine with Divine Light.” How? By doing more yoga. Your generous donation is a shining example!
Donate today on our website. Or you can call us at (610) 644-7555. Or simply send your check to Svaroopa Vidya Ashram, 116 E. Lancaster Ave., Downingtown, PA 19335. Thank You!
