Family Life, Sacred Life
A Story about Baba Muktananda









About the Author
Udhana, India
I was moved when I read Vani’s tale of her family’s time together at Gurudev Siddha Peeth. It reminded me of my own experience at the Ashram with my family. I reminisced about getting up at 3 a.m. so that I could meditate before seva in the Temple began, and about how, after that seva, I would meet my wife and our two girls to recite Shri Guru Gita. My five-year-old daughter would sit in my lap, and our twelve-year-old sat with my wife. After our breakfast together, both girls loved spending their daytime with the other kids and their teachers, and my wife and I enjoyed offering seva. In a letter, Baba said that I should think of the time I spent with my family as seva. When I did this, I experienced that my entire life was transformed into guruseva. What a blessing!
