Devoid of Compassion,
can it be a Dharma?
Compassion is essential
towards all creatures.
Compassion is indeed
the basis of Dharma.
Lord will not tolerate
any divergence from this! |

Life is fleeting
like a lamp in the wind.
Before the light of life is extinguished,
make your life fruitful. |

Basavanna to the global community. This
novel spiritual path has the ability to enrich
all facets of a person's life. The Center is
dedicated to cultivating a global community
of spiritual practitioners in the footsteps
of Basavanna and his contemporary Sharanas
.
Basavanna was an extraordinary visionary
from the 12th century India who gave a unique
spiritual path to the mankind. Based on the
principles of Arivu
(true
knowledge), Achara
(right
conduct), and Anubhava
(divine
experience), this spiritual discipline brought
social, religious and economical revolution
in the 12th century. Millions
of practitioners followed this path leading
to the enjoyment of the divine bliss in their
lifetime. Along with enriching the individuals,
the eternal message of this path has the power
to uplift the society even to this day.
This path advocates a holistic approach of Lingangayoga
(union
with the divine). This comprehensive discipline
encompasses bhakti
(devotion), jnana
(knowledge),
and kriye
(action)
in a well balanced manner. The essence and
practices of this spiritual path is recorded
in Vachanas
,
the unique mystic literature penned by Sharanas.
Vachanas deal with a wide spectrum
of subjects. Adapting the messages of Vachanas
will help a person enrich his personal, professional,
and spiritual life.
Based on the Vachanas of Sharanas, Basava Divine Center is bringing the messages and practices of Guru Basavanna by holding worships & services along with conducting courses & workshops. The center has special programs and activities for the youth. |
