DESIGN OF THE LOTUS

The Grand Archway is topped by a Kalasam. On each side of the upper portion of the Archway are twelve illuminated religious symbols: these have been etched in colored glass and are the same symbols that appear over the altars in the shrine.
Above the illuminated symbols is a colored ceramic Yantra. The archway opens onto two walkways, one on each side of a pool. Along the length of the pool are small fountains. At each end of the pool is a raised pond, with water rising through the center of a large carved granite lotus flower. Removed some redundant words.
At the end of the pond, as one approaches the Shrine two black granite elephants greet the visitors in a regal manner. In front of the lower level of the LOTUS is a receiving pond for the three waterfalls that cascade down from the upper pond that surrounds the shrine.
On both the sides of the entrance stand two bronze lions. An entryway leads into the lobby of the lower level of the LOTUS.

SWAMIJI QUOTES

If you believe in God, you know that God gives you everything that you need and takes away everything that you don't need.
A yogi is like a surfer who knows how to balance on his board. He welcomes even a big rolling wave because he knows how to enjoy it without getting caught in it.
Keep the mind clean, the body clean, the life well disciplined, the heart dedicated. This is Yoga.
Discipline makes your mind stronger and one-pointed. It should ultimately help you make your mind your slave.
Knowing the meaning of the mantram is not even necessary. The faith behind it is more important.
By repetition of a mantram alone, many hundreds of great saints have experienced Divine Consciousness.
Even when you are physically doing something, your aim can be meditation. Focusing your entire mind on what you are doing is meditation.
Spend a few minutes each day in meditation. These are the most important minutes you can spend. You will be able to send out nice, peaceful vibrations, and these vibrations will go around the globe.
If you have total faith in a Higher Will - a Higher Energy - you will be able to tune in to that and receive all the strength and energy to recharge your system.
To become a good instrument of the Divine, maintain your health - have an easeful body, a peaceful mind and a useful life.
Everything and everybody is looking for happiness. But it is not something that has to be brought in from outside. Happiness is already within Us and is to be experienced.
If you want God to come in, make room.
