The festival of Raksha Bandhan falls on the full moon day (Shravan Purnima) of the Shravan month of the Vedic lunar calendar. On Raksha Bandhan day, sisters tie a rakhi (thread bracelet) on her chosen brother's wrist. This symbolizes the sister's love and prayers for her brother, and the brother's commitment to protect her.
At the Advanced Teacher Training Sadhana Camp in Strilky, Czech Republic, yoga teachers are studying and working thoroughly, under the leadership of His Holiness Swamiji.
Sri Devpuriji was called Abunathswami, that is the title of a saint or yogi who is connected to the holy place Mount Abu in Rajasthan, India. The Nath tradition was founded by Matsyendranath and further developed by Yogi Gorakshnath.
Sri Devpuriji was also an Avadhuta saint – one who does not identify with his body, mind or any names and forms. Such a person is held to be pure consciousness. Avadhuta saints play a significant role in the history and rejuvenation of tradition of Sat Sanatan Dharma.
On the third day after the auspicious constellation of Amavasya, the celebration of the 70th anniversary of the mahasamadhi of Sri Devpuriji, the embodiment of Lord Shiva, was highlighted by H.H. Abunath Swami Maheshwarananda during satsang. ( His life story can be read in Lila Amrit.)
