The Divine Mother Center has been a true blessing in my life for many years. The healings I have received have been wonderful and clearly reached a soul level. The spiritual knowledge shared by this group has become the foundation of my life and kept me peaceful through many life challenges. This group to has helped me to grow spiritually and discover who I really am.

The Divine Mother Center gives me the direction I need. I'm impressed with how much work is done with such a small staff. They are always very kind and uplifting and nonjudgmental. They broadcast free events on a frequent regular basis. The depth of knowledge taught here is beyond anything I’ve seen anywhere else.
Divine Mother Center is beyond words in dedication to help people, caring, giving incredible spiritual knowledge generously and more. I can't express my gratitude for how much I have grown since working with this group. I have a better understanding and ability to deal with whatever happens in my life. I read and clicked "like" on as many recent reviews as I could tonight and wholeheartedly agree with what was posted in those.

The Divine Mother Center is an incredible organization. The staff do above a human amount of selfless service constantly and are generous with the results. I am constantly uplifted and growing spiritually as a result of the free broadcasts and programs I purchase. The staff live what they teach, which has helped me continually grow into the person I want to be and understand my own soul more clearly. They also support me in learning to help others in the ways they have helped me. The online community is beautiful. A little over a year ago, I joined a small group, which has been a major support and blessing in my life. There is a depth here that I don't think is available anywhere else.
The staff at the Divine Mother Center (DMC) are the most selfless, hardest working individuals I have ever known. Their commitment to helping and serving others is beyond measure. In a time of of ever increasing division in our nation and the world, the DMC dedicates themselves to cultivating unity rooted in love. They are dedicated to helping and guiding each individual they serve to a deeper and more intimate relationship with God. What's more, on a personal level, during this past calendar year, I found myself in a most difficult situation and I received the most compassionate care possible form everyone at the DMC. I am grateful for this organization and the individuals who make it up. Theirs is spiritual care, upliftment, and education at its best.

The Divine Assistants and the good work they do at the Divine lineage Center is unparalleled in my experience. The good people at Divine Assistants have selflessly and completely given their lives over to the service of all, to , broadly speaking, uplift humanity during this polarized time of great suffering and great awakening, and more practically to provide for the foundational needs (eg food, clothing, love) of those in the impoverished community of Mendocino County where the center is located. In my 20 plus years in the non-profit sector, I have not come across an organization that is so pure in its mission focus. Personally, my life has been transformed through my relationship with Divine Assistants. I cannot recommend this organization highly enough.
I can't say enough wonderful things about this organization. It is so rare to find a group of people so dedicated to helping others heal and awaken to their inner divinity. The hard work, dedication, and beautiful quality that this organization displays with each and every program and offering, is quite amazing. I feel it was one of the greatest blessings in my life that over 10 years ago someone recommended a program by the Divine Mother Center to me. My life has changed for the better in ways I wouldn't have guessed. I highly recommend this organization. They are doing great things and helping so many!

For anyone on a true spiritual path which benefits the world, this is the place. If you want to learn about love and living from your heart and develop true understanding of God, this is the place! The Divine Mother Center is a very special sacred organization dedicated to helping humanity.
We visited the center in October right in time for the full moon Pooja. Was a wonderful experience. I have never seen a Pooja performed with such beauty and elegance. Loved it! Will be visiting soon! Will also be a contributor to the center
Honestly, if you want to receive a powerful transmission of energy, just register for the fire ceremony during New Moon and Full Moon times. You will be amazed at just what happens virtually! Thank you Divine Mother Center for hosting these ceremonies, which I have joined for a few years now. They have gradually and consistently changed my energy and therefore my life. So blessed!
In mid December of 2023, an invitation popped up “out of nowhere” on my iPad about a virtual retreat being offered on “Jesus’s Years in India”, offered by a group called Devi Loka, which turned out to be a part of the Divine Mother Center. I have been on a very dedicated, committed, conscious personal spiritual journey for the past 40yrs of my life (I am currently 77). I was drawn to the topic and wanted to know more.
My plan was to just do the retreat. However, my heart and mind were both touched by both what I experienced and learned. I wanted more. My heart opened to this loving, dedicated, giving community of people, so selflessly serving the world with their love and devotion.
Here I am, 1 yr later, feeling so blessed and so grateful for the depth this years’ journey has added to my spiritual path. I come from an American western background. I appreciate this groups ability to bridge the eastern and western worlds of spirituality, bringing this knowledge and wisdom of ancient India to the present time. Learning about the saint, teacher, guide of Sri Kaleswhar’s mission and palm leaf teachings has been so enlightening and expansive. Look at his eyes in this photo. Feel his energy. He has given us incredible gifts for each of us, and the entire planet, to learn, heal and pass on.
The Divine Mother Center is dedicated to doing just that. Profound and sacred work. I am so grateful that this unexpected invitation to “Jesus’s Years in India” virtual retreat showed up somehow in my email. This started, and now continues openendedly, a beautiful expansion and profound deepening to my personal Spiritual path with this very loving and dedicated community.
I feel intense gratitude towards Divine Mother Center (in Laytonville, CA) and their leaders Mataji and Nityanandaji, staff and guides for I have been extremely blessed, assisted, supported and beautifully led by them and their abundance of ancient Indian spiritual technology offerings. They are truly caring and committed to ensure everyone succeeds as we go through life’s tests and growth periods while learning and practicing the teachings. I love that they were spiritually and personally trained for more than 15 years with a spiritual master from India, Swami Sri Kaleshwar.
Their amazing platform, Devi Loka, has provided me with immense guidance from the ancient Indian palm leaf manuscripts and formulas given by Mother Divine herself to help humanity heal, awaken, live a joyful life, as well as direct methods to reach her.
Within the platform, I have experienced honest, caring and compassionate support from their leaders, guides, staff and members. DEVI LOKA provides a very safe place to be vulnerable and raw which allows me to be heard and for my heart to open. I feel comfortable in speaking what is moving through me without being judged or criticized for everyone is also going through some type of situation or test as I prefer to call it. At the beginning I didn’t want to speak as my shyness kept me at bay but as I dove into it I have found myself opening up, speaking and connecting with others, my heart is softening and opening and it feels good! I am learning previously undisclosed information about great saints and their amazing lives, such as Mother Mary and Jesus, Swami Kaleshwar, Shirdi Sai Baba, as well as their teachings and their connection to Divine Mother. The more I get to know them, the more in reverence and awe I am about them and the more connected I feel to them. Their presence becomes more and more real in my life. Devotion is growing within me. This platform has provided me with connection to other like-minded souls who are also seeking healing, living a balanced, joyful and coherent life that is filled with peace and soul friendship as well as a deep reverence for the Divine. Despite the fact that I have not met anyone physically, due to our zoom interactions and postings, it feels like a true spiritual family, united in love and compassion for one another and it’s been only a year since I am a member.
I have experienced first hand the leaders’ and guides’ passion for me to receive the knowledge. It is true and sincere. There are lots of instructional gatherings with interactive participation led by Mataji and Nityanandaji, as well as by the highly spiritually trained guides. Their kind understanding and compassionate willingness to support and work with me financially during my times of financial constraints, even if it meant hardship for them, is something I have never seen done elsewhere. This shows that they truly walk the talk. Humility, compassion and sincerity are their trademarks. It makes me feel like they always have my back. I have been able to see through their kind assistance that their core intention, no matter what, is for us to receive the knowledge in order to evolve into the higher aspects of ourselves.
They are a true non-profit as they keep the prices low in order to allow accessibility to anyone who has the willingness to get the teachings. Their generosity with their offerings so that all can benefit is unmatched. Their loving deeds towards the external community is also part of their outreach in order to alleviate suffering, such as Christmas meal baskets for the hungry or families going through tough times. When love prevails compassion follows.
Pure Love guides and backs their intentions, words, beliefs, actions and deeds, all the time! Deepest reverence for the Divine, for Divine Mother sets this organization apart. And one can feel it. Divine Mother’s presence is prevalent. I’m grateful and delighted to be part of this great organization! I encourage you to check it out, volunteer and/or donate. Many blessings! Jai MA!!! ( means "Praise to the Divine Mother who offers her protection.” )
I was connected with DMC at a time when I was close to burnout. They helped me get back to a normal life. I found there lots of spiritual knowledge that I can study, lots of programs and events I can attend and especially a beautiful guide who is guiding my personal process and making my life happy again. Even though I live in Prague (Europe) and participate “only” long distance (via online streams) it changed my life unbelievably and I am so deeply grateful they are in my life. I am also a member of Devi Loka and it is amazing place with lots of wonderful people you can connect with and where you can find a lot of help, guidance and spiritual knowledge.
Divine Mother Center is a wonderful nonprofit. My experience is one of unconditioned love and a devotion to the highest and greatest good for ourselves and all concerned. The Divine Mother Center and participants embody a stance of benevolence towards humanity. This point of view brings about a real sense of unity and deep gratitude for the heartfelt participation from all. We recognize that we are all in this life together, the outer reflects the inner and various ways we can shift and modify our internal experience to add loving energy out into the world. We learn about the deep mystics, saints and teachers who have gone before us and illumined a path of embodied love.
I would suggest to almost anyone who takes their spiritual life or growth seriously, to check out this center and what they teach. It offers teachings well-tailored to the times we are in. It also offers a large array of healing techniques to heal the negative emotional states that can afflict us all---like heartbreak, for example.
The healing methods one can recieve, or learn to perform, are incredibly strong, and work on a soul level, which many healing methods don't reach to. I've benefitted from them time and again.
I speak as a licensed acupuncturist, and herbalist, that these teachings have brought me huge comfort when I needed it, and will not displace or compete with your current path, but add to it. I highly recommend this center as one of the main teaching sites of the wisdom of this lineage in the West. The teachers are competent.
As the globe grapples with increasing disconnection and divisiveness, the programs offered through The Divine Mother Center foster community, healing, sharing, and caring for one another. Informed by the wisdom of ancient India, this center teaches meditation practices and tools for healing and growth, which can be practically used everyday. I highly recommend this organization for spiritual seekers of all levels to deepen their practice or as a refresh in faith. Through the Divine Mother Center, I've personally found a wellspring of inspiration and a strong spiritual balast in my spiritual journey.

I can highly recommend Divine Assistants International and the Divine Lineage Healing Center as a genuine source from which to expand and enrich your own spiritual journey and to be of service, in large and small ways, to the greater good of humanity.
I had been on my spiritual journey with Sri Kaleshwar in India for more than a decade and it was the greatest, most fulfilling experience of my life to learn and experience directly from him. Before Sri Kaleshwar left his body in Mahasamadhi in 2012, his one great wish was for the students to continue to share the knowledge of his meditation, healing and self-healing techniques with purity, peace, hard work and inspiration. His heartfelt wish was to serve each other, those in need, and create healthy, happy, and truly meaningful lives. From here, the fragrance of the divine masters, such as Jesus, Mother Mary, Shirdi Baba, Ramana Maharshi, Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, Anandamayi Ma, and Sri Kaleshwar who walked before, would live on and continue to share their blessings.
The Divine Lineage Center embodies these ideals; guided but not directed, by a group of students who dedicated, lived and learned directly in the presence of Sri Kaleshwar, and now are living and working in perfect alignment with his humanitarian ideals. Through their service and ongoing spiritual programs, they are teaching, sharing and living the messages of peace in the way Sri Kaleshwar had always intended.
Set in the most gorgeous environment on top of a mountain, within redwood trees surrounding Lake Kaleshwar, and in accordance with the principles of Vaastu, the Center in Northern California is a place of serenity, healing, knowledge and great spiritual energy. This Center tirelessly serves the local and larger community by organizing spiritual and humanitarian events, both near and globally, to keep the flame of this tradition alive and united, often at their own expense and with the generous help of donations at any level.
This specific body of knowledge as originally shared through the life of Sri Kaleshwar is for anyone with an open heart and the soul desire for awakening, healing and service. Whether you are new to meditation or have been on the spiritual path for most of your life, you are sure to gain direct experience of the divine blessings and energy for yourself.
Divine Assistants International and the Divine Lineage Healing Center is a true and invaluable resource into the messages of Sri Kaleshwar's life, teachings, spiritual mastery and healing techniques.
My name is Olga Clifton, and I want to share my experience as a student at Divine Mother Centre for one year. I found what I was missing in my life: the deep meaning of spirituality, finding myself, and my purpose in life. That is essential for a human being. Divine Mother Centre gave all aspects, tools, and understanding through a high level of knowledge. I am grateful for the openness and support of the DMC team. But more importantly, as I change my life, my passion is to help others, my family, to change and transform their lives. I am so grateful to be part of the Divine Mother Centre community.
Divine energy runs through everything that comes out of The Divine Mother Center, opening so many hearts with love and compassion. I've been active with the center since 2004 and it's been overwhelmingly positive for my spiritual development. I've been blessed with many years spent with enlightened teachers and feel sincerely that The Divine Mother Center is for me the next transformative step and has been for almost 2 decades. What's going on now with the center is unique and expansive, utilizing newer technologies to be able to reach out and enlighten so many more people. This is here because of Swami Sri Kaleshwar, of Penukonda, India, who gave these teachings to Western students for the first time. Mataji (Monica of Penukonda) is the lineage holder and is at The Divine Mother Center in northern California, supported by NityaanandaJi as the founder and leader of the center. A dedicated core of beautiful divine souls provides so much work to keep it all running. Now there is a wonderful addition to the mix in Ramakrishna, another early student of Sri Kalshwar, who is bringing more knowledge and experiences to the table. This is an altogether formidable team with so much positivity. This is completely non-denominational, and everyone is welcome, regardless of religion or lack of it. You only need to want to experience God in whatever way you see Her.

I was first introduced to Swami Kaleshwar in 2005 at the Divine Lineage Healing Center and began at that time to study with Swami. Monica and Nityananda, the main teachers at the Divine Lineage Healing Center were a core part of this ongoing process. After Swami's Mahasamadhi the role of the Divine Lineage HC was amplified, and a regular schedule of processes, large and small events, and new and full moon fire pujas ensued. This became important in maintaining a sense of community, providing support and presenting wonderful new teachings Monica and Nityananda had received from Swami. Now the many live teaching processes and pujas are available online, making so much of the Divine Lineage HC available to just about anyone. These teachings are for everyone, from any spiritual path, any religion. These are made accessible by Monica's deep insights and knowledge of Swami's teachings and Nityananda's clear and expansive knowledge coupled with his incomparable speaking abilities. The two of them together create a beautiful loving synergy, making the satsangs and the processes they teach both illuminating and powerful while at the same time spiced with humor and lightness. They are completely enjoyable and show no signs of ego! The Divine Lineage HC has a core group of dedicated people who do all the hard work necessary to maintain the center, produce the events and everything else needed to make everything run impeccably and smoothly. The center is providing much-needed knowledge and love in these troubled times. Accessing what is offered is easy and highly recommended. I look forward to every event and participate in as many as possible. It's a huge part of my life and I'm better for it.
The divine mother center is a magical place! I feel so fortunate to be a new member of this community.
The kindest people in one of the most sacred places on earth. This is the kind of place you go to cleanse your soul. We are so grateful to everyone who makes this place possible.
This nonprofit provides some of the most valuable weekly content via email lists, that serve to facilitate deep and meaningful reflection and self-improvement. Additionally, it offers regular video engagements which provide valuable educational and spiritual development opportunities.
This is the most caring and and hardest working group I have ever had the pleasure of being associated with. Community service has been a pillar of their community for many, many years. From Christmas family dinner boxes, with all the fixings and gifts, to support of a hot lunch soup kitchen in a neighboring town.
But most importantly to me, is the care and support they have selflessly offered to our own membership. When my husband died unexpectedly they were there, though I was two continents away, with love and support that I could not have coped without. Multiply this by the hundreds, and the scope of their work is astonishing.
There is a depth of spiritual nourishment that also exceeds anything I have experienced before. Through ceremony and the support and guidance of the staff and the school I have been able to form a a deeper and more meaningful relationship with the sacred threads that tie all of life together. My favorite part is that it is nonsectarian. Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist, Christian, Jew, there is no problem with anyone's beliefs.
The online university component is the center of my social world since COVID 19 came along. I have grow close to the other students and formed deep friendships. All the above have been deeply enriching in my life.
I whole heartedly endorse this beautiful non-profit.

Over the last several years I have had the blessing of being a member of this amazing spiritual community. The offerings are so accessible to new students while still continually offering amazing new programs for the most senior students. Their work in the community of Laytonville give me joy to support - both the local soup kitchen and an annual initiative to provide the complete makings of Christmas dinner to so many in need.
I’ve known all of these wonderful people for a very long time! Everyone apart of the divine mother center, have so much love in their hearts. Their whole mission is to spread love and healing to whoever needs it, with everything going on in society right now, we need it more than ever. Thank you divine mother center for being so incredible!
As a seeker I have experienced personally, and have witnessed the very delicate nature of the students process. Finding the teacher is so critically important.
The Divine Assistants are providing an otherworldly amount of support for spirituality on today's globe......or disk if that's what you're into
In 2009, I embarked on a transformative journey with my very first visit to The Divine Mother Center, attending an in-person group event. This experience was nothing short of enchanting and life-altering. It was my first time experiencing miraculous energy and the power of the Ancient Knowledge. Words fall short in conveying the profound depth to which my life has been enriched and transformed. The most profound programs, the profound teachings, and the unwavering love, commitment, and dedication exhibited by every individual associated with The Divine Mother Center have left a lasting and unforgettable mark on my life. I actively participated in both in-person and long-distance programs, and each has left an equally profound impact, redirecting the course of my life. Since my initial visit in 2009, I've evolved into a devoted student and a regular visitor. Currently, I am deeply honored to serve as a volunteer, supporting the Divine Mother Center in its mission. This center, with its teachings, transformative processes, and the sacred land it resides upon, continues to be the catalyst for profound change in my life. My journey is a living testament to the miraculous energy and the profound influence of the Divine Mother in my life.
Divine Mother Center is the most generous, informative, supportive and enlightening learning platform I know. The courses are presented in very professional and inviting ways. There are so many referrals to background information. Personal experiences are generously shared to make understanding accessible for all. Live events are free for us to join. There is no pression whatsoever to be part of a community, it is just that at some point one feels so welcome to share in the wisdom and the love.
The Devine Mother Center is sharing spiritual information for the good of the people and the planet and most of the events and classes are free. I don’t have a place to practice these teachings with a group near me so their virtual events are very important to my spiritual process. The Devine Assistants International also provides ways for me to participate in humanitarian aid through donations specific to caring for the hungry and houseless people. With my busy life I appreciate that I can help others through donations to this organization.
The Divine Mother Center is a very special and unique place in the world, in the way it heals, shares knowledge and provides assistance and support. The team work and interact in a beautiful and divine way, each of them being an inspiration in what they represent and do.
It is an honor to be around and work with them, observe the way they live, love and interact with each other and the world around them.
The Divine Mother Center, the dedicated teams who work through and with them, need all the support to carryout their mission to make a positive shift in the world today and future to come. Please help in whatever way your heart is called to. Blessings to all.
It’s a Family!! Great people that treat you with acceptance. It’s a place for Deep Transformation!!!

I have been attending programs sponsored by the Divine Mother Center since 2009. In each and every program, at the center or virtually via the web, I have always felt deeply served by this unique spiritual and educational community. They offer me inspiration and Divine Knowledge, which cannot be found elsewhere. They have a most profound mission, to uplift the globe, through spiritual technology, love, service, healing, and Divine Knowledge. They do this joyiously, through hard work, and deep commitment to spiritual and moral principles, such as: Truth, Love, Peace and right action. This community loves and serves nature and humanity. I have been profoundly served by them! I recommend to anyone reading this statement, to turn toward this organization, for guidance and upliftment, and experience for yourself, the Divine Love and Transformation I have experienced thru my association with them.
Divine Assistants and the Divine Mother Center offer fascinating classes and programs, beautiful fire ceremonies (pujas), healings, and so much more. The volunteer staff is warm, friendly, knowledgeable, and deeply dedicated. They have lifted my spirits, my soul, and my body when I was in need. Without their help during my breast cancer, I am not sure where I would be now. I am in deep gratitude for my association with them. They are dedicated to sacred being, the divine feminine, and to sending positive energy, healing, and light to the world. They are a blessing force for individuals and the planet.

This is place of Miracles.
I have been many times to the Divine Lineage Healing Center for their amazing programs and powerful ceremonies. They are so moving and healing. The staff has always been so very loving and generous with me. It is truly a divine experience.
But now, I have been at the Divine Lineage healing center for 3 months because I had a breast cancer diagnosis. I came to the Center because I wanted to address the cancer from Spiritual and Herbal approaches.
My time here at the Divine Lineage Healing Center has ben MIRACULOUS.
My walnut sized tumor has shrunk bit by bit over the three months I have been here. I could feel it fading away. I will go back now for the scans and opinions of allopathic medicine. But I will always know how and where this miracle happened.
But that is only one miracle. I went for spiritual reasons, and I got everything I could hope for for my soul as well. My awareness expanded, I was able to clear all sort of old patterns and karmic issues. I felt that I was walking with angels who were guiding me. So many beautiful things just appeared and happened with the nature, the fire, the people. Each with its own healing energy.
This isn't just a great non profit, Miracles are happing here. These beautiful souls at Divine Lineage deserve so much praise and thanks, I wish I had the words.
They gave me hope when I had none. They cared for me, and loved me. They held me when I could not hold my self together. Where there was fear and darkness, they gave light and joy.
Their ceremonies and practices Heal at all levels. I am proof.

The Divine Mother Center offers invaluable services to both its' community and also to everybody who is interested.
I have been a long term friend of the center and regularly come from Europe to visit them because I believe it is one of the best places in the world to receive authentic ancient self-healing meditation techniques from a group of most excellent and dedicated people. Moreover, it is a place of true soul-relaxation. Despite their dedicated works to share their knowledge and offer healing rituals they also - soon since two decades - continually contribute to charitable causes not only with donations but also with actual hands-on help.
I truely and sincerely can only recommend to support the center in any possible way.
Divine Mother Center is a place of healing and love. I recently was granted a scholarship for a program that brought me great joy, learning, and blessings. I have been a part of the programs for many years and they are always willing to help when I need it. The healing fires that they regularly offer have been a gift to many and a blessing for the world.
I was so excited when I discovered that The Divine Mother Center had started a virtual ashram. I have never seen any place that had the body of knowledge available online that they do. It’s such a service to the world to make something so precious accessible to more people. I’m handicapped and it’s difficult to travel, and of course during the pandemic it was not an option. I’m so glad that the ability to grow was there when the world needed it the most.
The Divine Mother Center has been a lifeline to me and my family. The beauty and tranquility of the grounds coupled with the open-hearted personalities of the residents are evident in every program I've attended. The work they do is so vital in these uncertain times, they work tirelessly to provide positive programming and energy transmissions to those in need. I would recommend anyone looking for a positive experience in their lives to participate in one of their broadcast or join a program.
What an incredible organization! I have done one in-person program and visited the center two other times. Each time, I was struck by the beauty of the place and the generosity and the dedication of those who run the center. I am pleased to be a member of this community and feel moved by their commitment to bring peace and divine connection to everyone.
The Divine Mother Center is an amazing place. I have come here many times looking for answers in my life and I have always found them. The staff here is also phenomenal. The amount of work these folks do on a daily basis to bring such life-changing courses to us all is astounding. If and when they are able to offer public events again, it is also one of the most powerful places I have ever sat and meditated in the world.
I am so grateful this community and this place exist. Over the course of covid the Divine Mother Center gave their all and managed to move Satsangs, Fire Pujas, and courses all online with no loss of flow of the beautiful energy. THE Divine Mother is certainly smiling.
My first visit here and I was amazed at the beauty of my first fire puja celebrating Diwali.
Everyone here has also been extremely welcoming.
I have know this group for many years and have seen the growth. This year I was fortunate enough to visit the mountaintop in Laytonville. I was lucky enough to personally experience a fire puja. It was a truly amazing experience.
A small group of people are changing the world through their dedication in bringing to the West knowledge that can shift us from extinction to abundance. I am so impressed by the dedication, love and sacrifice they show us all. These teachings have changed my life.

I work as a volunteer for this organization bringing ancient knowledge to the world. I am so grateful to be part of this great work.
This is a highly dedicated group of people who work so hard to spread good in the world. They feed people in need in their area. They do countless rituals to help rise the energy on our planet in these times of change. They share the ancient knowledge they have been trained in for 25 years to support who ever is open to it staying calm and peaceful in the face of adversities. I personally have been given so many helpful tools to serve and to strive. Personal success on all levels has been clearly growing since I started interacting with this center. The teachings I can follow each week through their Virtual Ashram keep inspiring me and supporting me in my growth. Receiving regular coachings provides so valuable guidance for my daily life. I‘ve also been given the chance to offer my service on their plattform. They seriously deserve any award and recognition out there. All the best from Austria. Imke
One of the most Honorable, Authentic, Super Hardworking, Extremely Generous , Very Knowledgeable group of Divine souls whose purpose is to heal and bless the world.
Gratitude to them for all the selfless service they do out of pure love and their dedication to anyone who asks for help and healing.
This organization has been a wonderful and integral part of my life and the lives of many people close to me. I have spent quite a bit of time at the center over the years and each time I visit it touches my heart and reminds me of how important the community there is to my life, and how important the work they do is for the community around the world.
I recently stayed at the center for a week and was blown away by the kindness, generosity, and openness of the community. This organization is truly committed to helping others find their path in life.
Divine Lineage/ Divine Mother Healing Center is unparalleled for excellence, purity, authentic assistance and access to the highest divine knowledge and processes. The seva ( selfless dedicated service) they provide locally and globally has made a real impact. Their creed is “ help ever and hurt never” and they embody that fully. Thank you Divine Lineage Healing Center for all you are, all you do and all you aspire to do for the betterment of all. I don’t know where I would be without you! God Bless! Sudarshana StarshineStar
In the present atmosphere of fear and distrust, we need the knowledge, hope and love shared by this Center. Their addition of the virtual ashram brings their teaching and spiritual programs right into our living rooms. The instructors welcome everyone, whether new to this path or long-time students. Although I live thousands of miles from the Center I've found that my life is enriched, my hope strengthened, my love for others deepened through the virtual classes and programs. . . and especially the powerful fire pujas. I'm forever grateful for the small staff that makes such a huge difference in so many lives.

More than ever we need this kind of organization - a dedicated group that is devoted to sharing ways we can each maintain a life of peace and healing. I don't have the words to adequately describe how hard the residents at the Temple work, how completely they have dedicated their lives to keeping the Light shining for a world that at times seems to be growing increasingly dark. They model a life of service, peace and love. On-line educational opportunities enable me to continue my journey even though I live across the country. Joining healing programs through live streaming keeps my heart and spirit 'fed.' I can't imagine my life without them. In addition to educational programs and spiritual teachings, they use their limited resources to feed and clothe an underserved population in Northern California. If there is a need, Divine Assistants International will do whatever they can to meet it. They have the heart and the will. It's up to us to provide the means.
We have been involved with the folks at the DLHC for almost 10 years now. I can testify to their good works, humble lifestyle, abiding positivity, and open hearts. They have helped many people in that most noble of works, finding a true path to spiritual enlightenment. However, one cannot focus on spiritual evolution if one is hungry, tired, "wrung out", addicted, or otherwise ensnared in the many traps of consensus reality. They feed the hungry, minister to the addicted and ensnared, and provide positive roadmaps to success via in-person and online sessions. Highly recommended.

Helping to heal personal suffering, which in turns helps to heal the globe, is part of the mission of the Divine Assistants Int'l. They have helped, and continue to help, hundreds if not thousands, of people who are confused, in pain, depressed, heartbroken, feeling left out, and otherwise marginalized or diminished from their potential true selves. The mechanisms they use via mantras, fire pujas, and other channels thus far not understood by modern science, are ancient technologies designed to connect us with the Divine, and show us what is Real.
DAI has been very helpful in my private and professional life. I received precious knowledge to personally grow and to expand my company in a solid and grounded way. They do lots of so much needed charity work and have a good balance between services they charge for, they give away freely and they let the client choose the amount. I am grateful and hope there services and knowledge reaches many. I. Maria, Sooss, Austria
The Divine Lineage has had a profound impact on my life. Their wholehearted dedication and willingness to share and teach the ancient knowledge has brought such a depth to my spiritual practice. They are guiding me closer to my inner guru, my soul and for that I am forever grateful.
The Virtual Ashram has been a lifeline during the pandemic. I don't know where I would be without it. Taking the online classes and joining in the mediations is what has kept me going during this dark time we are in. Being able to spend my time with a loving community, growing, sharing, and meditating with others has not only kept me sane, but I am growing in ways I never could have imagined. The amazing ancient teachings about the heart and soul are waking me up to the truly shared reality of humanity. We can not do this alone. Though we are physically distant, our hearts open to each other removes that distance and creates a genuine feeling of oneness which in turn has to be shared again and again. I am so grateful for the tireless efforts of the staff and support teams at the Divine Lineage Center, they are the most committed and genuine group of people I have ever met. Thank you with every cell in this body, thank you.

The quality of the programs offered both online and in person at the Divine Lineage Center is top notch. I am always transformed through my participation in them. I have not seen any spiritual groups giving this level of information and experience.
It is deeply heart opening and soul healing. The staff is supportive and very helpful. The onsite grounds and temples are ever evolving and becoming more and more alive with energy and beauty. I am just so happy to be a part of such an amazing group of people who are so welcoming and genuine sharing the deepest spiritual knowledge and practice, helping the world to heal. Thank you!
Less than 8 months ago Divine Lineage was largely unknown to me. Now their presence is the most significant aspect in my life, especially the Virtual Ashram. There are no words to adequately express the remarkable teachings from dedicated devotees of Sri Kaleshwar. I am truely grateful for the personal guidance and teachings that i have been freely given. There is so much more to be explored within Divine Lineage. I am so blessed to have found this ancient knowledge, lovingly shared with openess, kindness and integrity. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Like a sparrow with a string fastened to my feet, I was pulled by Baba to this sacred Lineage and Ancient Knowledge. My gratitude has no bounds. The first program I attended at Divine Mother Center was the Guru Purnima 2018. I arrived as a true beginner but felt welcome from the very first moment by the amazing lovingly community there. I became a committed student since and have participated in more than 18 programs with them, growing my understanding on the knowledge and deepening my experiences towards the Divine. My life has changed completely and still develops in the most beautiful way through their teachings and love. I feel ever happier, softer and more peaceful, both inside and out. Thank you for the continuous blessings that the Divine Mother Center keeps on sharing to the world!

"As a new student I am so grateful to Nityaananda, Mataji and this forum for sharing the knowledge that has changed the trajectory of my life. As I sit in Satsang with this community, my heart expands in loving awareness for the beloved souls gathering together to connect with the Mother Divine. I am in awe of the devotion and love present in this community and am blessed to connect at this auspicious time in humanity’s history."

"My experience with the recent Shravana process was liberating and inspirational. I have been pressed with difficulties for a while now, and joining the Shravana process brought me joy and relief. Knowing and feeling that I am part of a community of love and healing is blessing my soul. I feel deep gratitude to the Divine Mother Center Programs and of course, to Swami and Baba. Shanti, shanti, shanti."
My heart completely goes to Nityanandaji, Mataji and the whole team at Divine Lineage Center. For 20 years I believed I new about spirituality, but I most say that after joining the virtual ashram and the amazing satsangs that I came to realice how little I new and how small my practice was. Nityanandaji teaches and guides us with great love, joy and wisdom, as a result of that all aspects concerning my practice and my ways of being have taken a 180 degree turn for the best. The experience has been amazing!!!

The Divine Mother Center's Virtual Ashram is an exciting and effective platform for studying the ancient knowledge of the palm leaves shared by Sri Kaleshwar. With the expert guidance of the instructors and the support of the student community, I am deepening my understanding of the different systems of these enlightenment teachings and moving ever closer to the self-realization that I seek. The Center also regularly provides meals to the surrounding community in need and broadcasts multiple free events on YouTube each month. The many offerings from the Divine Mother Center are a beacon for all people searching for a way to heal and help the world move into a new age of truth, duty, peace, and love.

Being able to spend 2 weeks in August at the Divine Lineage Center was the highlight of my summer. The center is located in the mountains above Laytonville, CA and provided the perfect setting for this meditation retreat. The hours spent in stillness and contemplation were nectar to my soul, and the cosmic energy that fills that place brought great clarity to my mind, which I was able to carry with me back home and incorporate into all aspects of my life. Many thanks to the teachers and staff of Divine Lineage Center for offering many opportunities to spend time there, learn the ancient knowledge, and heal my mind, heart, and soul. ~Suzzana Power
Divine Lineage is a unique and magical place. By offering classes and healings in person and online, this center is paving the way to modernize ancient healing. The staff is a special group of kind and loving souls who truly care about uplifting humanity, healing and empowering all people. It is a blessing to visit this land and healing center. What an amazing place! If you have been seeking a divine experience or a peaceful sanctuary then this is the place for you.
My donation to Divine Lineage is from a place of gratitude for all the programs, processes, and guidance I have received from Sri Kaleshwar and the beautiful souls who carry forward his mission. Awakening consciousness, healing heartbreak, inspiring generations in-person and online: the greatness of this non-profit is in its integrity and pure devotion. Huge love to the dedicated crew who work tirelessly to make it so. Thank you also for your kindness toward others, such as feeding neighbors in need and helping out in the community throughout the year. Divine Lineage leads by its example of love and service. This is a great gift to the world that seeks light in the darkness.
I scheduled my first visit to the healing center not knowing exactly what to expect. I had physical issues that had been troubling me for years. The results were so remarkable that I came back for two additional visits within three months, treating me successfully for depression and anger that traditional modalities never resolved. I have recommended this center to a friend who is also thrilled and grateful for her care. Definitely five stars.
I’ve been studying and participating in the programs at the Divine Lineage Healing Center for over 6 years now. I appreciate and treasure my experiences there. So much so that last year, I moved from Colorado to live closer to the center. I’m so grateful for and inspired by the dedication, devotion and care in which the directors and the staff of volunteers serve the center and the spiritual community. The programs here are so beautiful and impeccable. Monika, Nityaananda and other teaching staff share very advanced knowledge and create powerful experiences that I have been blessed to participate in there in person and also via their online remote programs. My spiritual knowledge and channels have grown deeply as a result of my participation in programs, seva and processes at the center. Thank you Divine Assistants International for the beautiful work you are sharing -- impacting the globe so powerfully!! ❤️
The Divine Lineage Center was a reason for me and my family to move closeby. The energetic support and blessings that we receive from that holy place are beyond words. It's a powerful spot to re-charge and release every day life stresses. Every time I'm there I feel like a different person - my inner light is coming out and deep healing and spiritual transformation is happening. It feels like my soul home.
Beautiful spiritual organization that also does a lot of seva for the community. They are keeping the energy running at a high level. Every time i go to the center, my meditation process deepens and the open hearted crew makes for a very special experience.
I came to Divine Assistants International this weekend for the first time. The beauty and the energy of this place is fantastic! I wanted to be able to give a flowery, glowing description but I'm really at a loss for any other words. I'll definitely be back!
I heartily recommend this amazing healing center, nestled in the Mountains and surrounded by a luscious forest in California. One will experience a complete healing of mind , body and soul. It is truly a divine healing space.
Words cannot express the amount of humbled gratitude I have for being shared this remarkable knowledge. This practice is what’s necessary for this planet. The energy is getting greater on this planet. The vibrations are getting higher with every soul who taps into their divine abilities. Anything is possible.
Divine Lineage Healing Center is a peaceful and powerful place to receive healing, study ancient spiritual knowledge, and connect to the Divine source of creation. I have been participating in online and in-person programs since 2014. Monika and Nityaananda do a brilliant job of teaching the ancient knowledge Swami Kaleshwar shared. The staff at the center always give 150% to making the programs packed full of healing techniques and teachings. They are dedicated to making them accessible to everyone near and far.
I can honestly say that I have experienced healing and transformation in all areas of my life since I began my studies with DLHC. Areas such as self-love, relationships, parenting, abundance, business, home, and health. I consider it a life-changing blessing to have found Divine Lineage Healing Center and the community there.
After five decades of frustration on the path to authentic self discovery, a simple miracle happened... an actual experience of what I was seeking.
A combination of a world class energy power spot right in my backyard, a community of people who walk the talk, experiences of the divine throughout each day, plus a third-eye opening unlike I’ve only dreamed of experiencing... all within a few weeks!
Okay, please believe me when I say they are changing the world here in many ways.
I consider this one of the greatest gifts of my life... My name is Jules. I hope to see you there to share in the divine experience.
The great souls at the Divine LIneage Healing Center, in this persons experience, provide great service not only to individuals on many levels, but also for the whole world.
It takes tremendous love, dedication and selfless service to perform the rituals they do regularly week after week, year after year, no matter the challenges.
Although the authentic teachings, services and lineage may be originally Vedic, they are being offered in a way that Westerners are better able to access. Some of which were completely unavailable for most of us, until now.
Every sacred object, every service that has been sponsored so far through DLC, has been performed and delivered with great care and consideration. The Grace that flows through the lineage is immeasurably profound, mostly subtle and sometimes very real, like having my wallet returned, fully intact, the very next day after losing it on a London, UK bus....
This has also been experienced by my immediate family and friends too.
I've been honored and blessed to have participated in many of Divine Lineage's programs, both onsite and offsite. I can attest to the impeccability of every aspect of Divine Lineage's operation. The course materials are beautiful and the content is exciting, abundant and clear. Best of all, it remains in one's account to review at any time. The Divine Lineage team embodies sincerity, love, compassion, service, self-sacrifice and humility. They are devoted to preserving and generously sharing the esoteric knowledge that leads to spiritual experience and eventual mastery as taught by Sri Sai Swami Kaleshwar, a great Indian guru, and spreading peace and love for one another across the globe.
The programs offered by the Divine Lineage Healing Center are always good, even when being experienced online. But this summer, they far surpassed themselves. I attended two programs in person, and one from a distance, and my energy is totally different. I feel energized, nurtured and nourished. My knowledge has expanded far past what I expected I might learn and experience. Each program was powerful in its own way, but together, WOW!!! The teachings are held with integrity and respect, and shared accordingly. The rhythm of bhajans, fire pujas, abisheks, teachings, seva, and personal practice was intricately balanced. I am deeply grateful to have been part of all three programs. If you are wondering if the online programs lose any of the potency that one might experience in person, I would have to say I have wondered about that myself; I may never know, but what I experienced from a distance was amazing and beautiful. I do not doubt that it was the perfect experience for me, and though I would have loved to have been there in person, it wasn't possible. I am immensely grateful that it was opened to participation online. I love that there is still the sense of being in the group process even when not being present in person, there is still a sense of unity. Another plus to this community is the international flavor-- people come from all over the world to participate, and I have enjoyed meeting and getting to know them, as well as joining together with a common intent. The community is warm and welcoming. The land-- beautiful, peaceful and powerful, with a beautiful small lake. If you are thinking of attending a program, do yourself a favor and just go for it!!
My experiences with the Divine Lineage Family over the past 10 years or so,has been a step by step journey into the evolutionary development of my soul. Continually moving toward going deeper into myself and closer to embodying the grace of Divine Energy.
What the teachers and staff offer is always given with warmth, generosity and authentically.
I am very grateful for being able to receive so much, right here in my own home, via Long Distance Programs through my computer...
Deep Bows to the Divine Lineage Healing Center !!!
My experience with the “Winning the Master’s Heart” program and Guru Purnima this summer is beyond words. Even as a new student to this Lineage I was able to connect with the beautiful and powerful energy there. It was so profound that it feels like home and family to me now. My bond and commitment with the Master and the Divine grew stronger and is now a path where I constantly am attire to go to, it’s a part of me. So, I encourage anybody who feels the hunger to nourish its spirit to attend as often as you can, I know I am. It is a true Oasis of spiritual nourishment!!! Veronique Chapuy (Monterrey, México)
I participated in a very beautiful online course, this summer, offered by the Divine Healing Center. Hosted by Nityaananda & Monika-of-Penukonda, two great instructors, who shared what was, in my opinion, the most amazing spiritual knowledge, I have to say I was also really impressed by how well-organized & thorough the series of presentations and activities were.
I'd like to thank them and D.A.I., from the bottom of my heart, for the wisdom they imparted and for the profound direct experiences I gained and continue to gain from the daily practices.
2018 Guru Purmina, what a beautiful and inspiring event at Divine Lineage Healing Center! Once again an amazing and inspirational program. Such loving and bonding unity for all. Looking forward to future events.
I’ve been a participant, a volunteer and a staunch supporter of Divine Lineage Healing Center (DAI) for over 12 years. I am involved because every aspect of this organization is focused on serving and supporting people through spiritual teachings that expand knowledge and give experiences to connect us to our innermost heart. Students of this knowledge naturally take it out into their families and communities and that increases empathy, compassion, cooperation and love for others. DAI teachings foster participation in direct donations of food and services, uplifting music concerts, health and well-being and spiritual activities such as Fire Ceremonies and processes. All this is near and dear to my heart. Through my course work I gained peace, grace, open heartedness and happiness regardless of circumstances. I’ve included a picture of me and my youngest grandson because we are much alike - we both laugh often and want to know how things work. Thank you DAI for giving me access to how spiritual things work. V. Grace

I am constantly amazed at how deeply and perfectly the courses offered by DAI enhance my ability to be calm and productive in the midst of, well, life. For example, I recently attended the five day on-site course "Who Am I" which engaged me deeply and profoundly in the eastern study and experience of my mind's relationship with my soul. This deep dive into myself brought benefits that I hadn't even considered. Happiness just bubbled up along with a feeling of well-being and optimism that was inspiring. My mind got quiet and my heart opened to others with increased compassion and clarity and this feeling remains strong 4 months later. This is just one of many programs available through DAI online and at their site in Northern California that move me consistently forward toward wisdom.
Because Divine Assistants International (Divine Lineage Healing Center) exists, I no longer suffer with epilepsy, migraines or panic attacks. Self-harm and a desire (and attempts) to exit this life no longer dominate my actions or thoughts, and fear no longer dictates my reality. Divine Assistants International has, in no uncertain terms, changed my life and saved my life.
I now know from personal experience that it is possible to heal: from physical illness, emotional distress and despair, and soul sickness. The tools I needed to fully heal from a long history of violence were tools given me through my studies in courses offered at Divine Lineage Healing Center. It is through these courses that learning became a journey, and healing became real. I will continue to expand my experience and knowledge through these studies, and now I focus not on fear or despair, but on continually becoming a better conduit for love and healing.
The courses are lead by the highly advanced healers and teachers at Divine Lineage Healing Center, and the staff of Divine Assistants International (Divine Lineage Healing Center) consists entirely of women and men who are wholly dedicated heart and soul to the uplifting and healing of all beings across the planet; their dedication is astounding and inspirational.
In addition to all I have cited and so much more (I could write a book, it seems, so much to tell), the mission of Divine Assistants International (Divine Lineage Healing Center) is beautifully illustrated in the Peace Fire movement they created (https://peacefires.org). Now joined by individuals and groups in 188 locations and 27 countries, this movement for world peace and healing grows with each global event.
During the times during which I find I am overwhelmed and, "the world is too much with me," the tools I've developed through courses, and my ongoing studies with Divine Lineage Healing Center, provide me with the courage and strength needed to lift up out of negativity. Considering the current climate of suffering, uncertainty, anger and fear we live in, it is, to me miraculous to know I am never, ever alone.
Although it may take many, many lifetimes, it is my intent to one day repay Divine Lineage Healing Center for all they have done, and continue to do, selflessly and with genuine heartful intent for the well being of the planet and its inhabitants.

My past is one of great violence. Growing up the victim of violence as a young child, I repeated the pattern of victimization for much of my life through abusive relationships, and attempted suicide twice (both times the doctor told me I should not have survived). I hid from an armed boyfriend in a basement, lied at emergency room visits about damage to my jaw/shoulder/head, suffered frequent bouts of depression, and always, always, lived bound by the chains of fear.
It is a challenging endeavor to overcome deep childhood trauma, and I sought healing through a lot of counseling, earning a psychology degree, isolation, and many many hours of time in the wilderness. As I gained my degree, I ended the pattern of abusive relationships forever.
Still, I experienced panic attacks, nightmares, seizures, depression, and, as before, an ever present underlying fear.
Divine Assistants International is responsible for my being on this planet today. Anyone who knows me well hears me say this over and over again. Through completing many of the courses offered by Divine Assistants, I have found true healing. Emotional, physical, and spiritual. My suicidal ideation has completely ceased. I no longer have nightmares, panic attacks are becoming a long-ago and far-away memory (!!), and depression and seizures are no longer running my life. And, beyond all expectation, I no longer have the constant fear. Imagine, decades of deeply ingrained fear, despair and pain healed. Body, heart, and soul.
But I'm just one person. As I've healed and learned and grown through processes, I've witnessed the powerful force for good that is Divine Assistants International. Feeding the most vulnerable of their community, providing global access to professionally designed and expertly presented life-changing courses through the Soul University (and I do mean life-changing), and providing healing to people across the planet, Divine Assistants International exists for one reason: the betterment of the well-being of all people and the planet.
It was not a blithe manner in which I shared my story. In fact, I have never publicly written of my violent past. But I know that this is a non-profit that depends largely (mostly) on us: you-me-all of us, to stay alive. And it is the least I can do because they are the reason I am alive.
In 2016, Divine Assistants International began the #countyourlight movement , and on New Year’s Eve 2016, in an interfaith action, thousands of people in 68 countries came together and sent positive intentions for 26 continuous hours. This movement continues to grow, and includes the peace fires that take place every month.
Divine Assistants International means comfort, learning, acceptance, growth, healing, global community, life, and love. Hope in a time many deem hopeless.
We can be the light to an organization that ends darkness for so many.
Divine Assistants International (Divine Lineage Healing Center) is the living embodiment of the healing power of love. Their mission of service encompasses communities of every type and size, from the small family home next door, to Earth Herself. They maintain an ongoing service of support for the homeless. Each year they stock and deliver hundreds of gift baskets to needy families and individuals during the holiday season. They give medical and spiritual healing to all who come to them. Their services include educational programs on building communities and a world based on humanitarian values of love for one another. Some students travel to Laytonville, California, to undergo intensive workshops on site. Some enter Divine Lineage Healing Center’s distance learning programs. Divine Lineage Healing Center envisioned and brought into being the worldwide program of Peace Fires: The Global Movement Uniting People for World Peace and Healing. Through Peace Fires, people in 131+ locations in 22 countries around the world are uniting in Peace Fires to calm negativity and bring peace. As one client in one distant town in Alabama, I have a life that has been enriched by Divine Lineage Healing Center in fundamental ways. The teachings and practices I’ve learned through Divine Lineage Healing Center have given me relief from depression, and have taught me a way of living based on joy rather than fear. In these dark times, Divine Lineage Healing Center is a great light showing a path of hope and possibility.
The Divine Lineage Center is a one-of-a-kind meditation and retreat center. The staff, volunteers, donors, and friends are among the most dedicated, open-hearted, and committed people working selflessly (day and night) to ease suffering and uplift humanity. The Divine Lineage’s programs reach people of all backgrounds, faiths, and geographies to help bring personal healing, create peace, and make lasting transformational change possible.
One powerful example of this is through the 7 free live streaming Sacred Ceremonies for Healing and Raising Consciousness the Center broadcasts every Full Moon and New Moon that are always free and open to anyone. The Sacred Fire Ceremonies (pujas) and Holy Baths (abisheks) create positive, healing energy. So many people feel refreshed and renewed by tuning in to broadcasts from home, work, on a daily commute. These ceremonies renew inspiration, manifest dreams and send healing throughout the world. They create positive vibrations that are an antidote to the negativity in the world today.
I highly recommend joining with and supporting the Divine Lineage Center’s in-person and on-line meditation programs and live broadcasts any way you can.

I highly recommend the Divine Lineage Healing Center to anyone, especially those seeking to heal, awaken, love, and grow your divine spark. The Center is a sacred Shiva/Shakti power spot located in the remote forest of Mendocino County in Laytonville, Northern California. It is a place of miracle energy and of transmitting healing energy and sending positive divine vibrations throughout the world. The on-line and distance energy healing programs give anyone, of any level of mediation experience an opportunity to experience the energy and receive the healing they need. The Center offers in-person and on-line meditation programs, monthly New and Full Moon Sacred Fire Ceremonies-Pujas for Peace, private healing sessions, special puja blessing energy transmissions, live streaming webcasts, podcasts, healing music to share divine solutions for creating happiness and abundance of all kinds. Everyone can experience this energy and find the right sacred formula from the ancient knowledge for transforming health issues, family and relationship problems, business issues, negativity, and how to develop a personal relationship with God, in any form that touches your heart.
I first began working with the Center in 2008 as a volunteer and program participant. I'm a professional with over 20 years experience working with non-profit organizations. Since 2012, I have participated in almost every meditation and healing energy transmission program, and served as a full-time volunteer staff. You will love getting to know the residents and staff, on-site and in satellite communities. I’m honored to call them my friends and colleagues, spiritual family. They are some of the kindest, most sincere, professional, talented and gifted healers and teachers of the ancient knowledge you will meet, and will do all they can to support you, your happiness and success.
This organization uplifts and serves individuals as well as its community in truly needed ways. From feeding the hungry and poor, to delivering Christmas and Thanksgiving baskets of foods and gifts to any who ask, to offering a mountaintop retreat space in pristine nature, and of course the sharing of life changing knowledge and enlightenment they teach and embody, this is truly a remarkable organization.
The comment I hear most frequently from visitors to the temple is about the residents there and the atmosphere of love and service they create.
Divine Assistants is such an amazing organization and has a profound impact on my life. The retreats they offer are something I look forward to attending every year as they always bring a greater sense of peace, bliss and understanding into my life. The teachers and staff are all wonderful and support the students in a beautiful and caring way.
DAI has done nothing but great work. The team at DAI has selflessly served its members and the community for as long as I've known them. There are few organizations on the planet doing the level of good for humanity as what I've seen at DAI.

My life would be bleak indeed without the light of Divine Assistants International illuminating a path of hope, even as they embody grace and sacrifice and generosity by devoting their lives to enhancing the the lives of others. They feed the hungry and clothe the poor. They make it possible for engaged students and scholars to translate obscure texts and bring important knowledge to the West. For over a decade, Divine Assistants International's guidance, education and personal inspiration have helped me build and sustain a healthy, productive way of living and working in a chaotic world. I am consistently invited to participate in Divine Assistants International's programs that would be beyond my means without their scholarships. Though my own donations are small, the folks at Divine Assistants International receive them with a grace and gratitude that make me feel like I am making a positive difference. When I can participate in life-changing programs conducted on behalf of individuals and communities in northern California, it makes me feel as though I am part of their wonderful charitable work. Through Divine Assistants International, I am able to believe, and act out of the belief, that I can make a positive difference in the world; that I really can be an agent for positive change. In these times of seemingly endless turmoil, Divine Assistants International's programs and teachers give me faith that goodness has a chance. I am forever grateful for Divine Assistants International's embodiment of generosity, grace, and love.
The dedicated and inspiring souls at Divine Assistants International (DAI) of Laytonville, California tirelessly devote their time, consciousness, and lives to bring forth truly sacred knowledge and Divine teachings to assist the education, spiritual insight and critical healing of all humanity.
Their supremely focused efforts to enhance the wellness and advancement of our challenged world community have made a uniquely welcome difference in my life, the lives of cherished friends and loved ones, and countless numbers of uplifted recipients globally.
I gratefully extend my heartfelt appreciation for DAI's vitalizing presence and essential guidance.
My infinite blessings and love to you all!

It's an insurmountable challenge to describe the wide-ranging benefits, insight and experiences I've enjoyed as a direct result of the exemplary guidance, mentorship, teachings and friendship provided to me and my family; parents, stepmom, siblings and recent offspring in our long-standing association and nearly two decades of interaction with the lineage of teachers and teachings so inspiringly-represented, at and by, the Divine Lineage of Laytonville, California.
Almost everything that’s awry with the world today can be traced to a breakdown in unity, community and family.
If communities, states and nations were fairly guided and lovingly mentored by the mores, principles, strength and compassion demonstrated year in and year out by the Divine Lineage's gifted community of representatives we'd all be residing on a much happier, healthier and flourishing planet.
Establishing, teaching and reflecting these core values are the epitome of what the Divine Lineage community strives for, routinely achieves and continues to hold as their inspiration.
It’s not possible to speak too highly of the folks at Divine Lineage, their dedication, mission and results.
It is our collective good fortune to have these people in our lives.

Divine Lineage Healing Center is an extraordinary place and an immensely beneficial non-profit organization for our entire globe. This center is completely dedicated to uplifting humanity and serving the global community through educational programs, cultural enrichment and community outreach.
I had such an amazing experience the first time I went to Divine Lineage Center that I ended up moving there. I am now a dedicated full-time volunteer helping with on-going projects, serving and living in spiritual community. This wonderful center allows for everyone to immerse themselves in spiritual studies in a supportive, peaceful environment surrounded with pristine nature.
This center is very special for many reasons but mainly because it maintains an open-hearted atmosphere, accepting of all spiritual aspirants. It supports and teaches about the basic fundamental principles of life including love, peace, compassion, knowledge, selfless service and bliss. Divine Lineage Center shares knowledge programs on-site as well as offering online programs, making it globally accessible. They are supported entirely by donations yet continuously offer scholarship programs to all dedicated and serious students. There true aim is to help everyone, never turning anyone away. The people who live at and come to this center are truly divine souls who have a real longing to serve the globe and uplift others. We must continue to support people and places like Divine Lineage Healing Center and allow for these good works to reach more and more people. Please help support this center and make it possible for us to continue our mission. Namaste and thank you. Love, Bala Devi
The Divine Lineage Center has greatly impacted my life.
I have been living at the Center for the past three years, working as a full-time volunteer. During this time, I've had countless experiences that have enriched and grown my awareness of the value of compassion and generosity. Here is one example:
Every Christmas, the Divine Lineage Center provides for the low-income community of Laytonville 'Christmas Baskets'. These 'Christmas Baskets' are full of good food, treats, and gifts - everything a family needs to experience a nice Christmas meal.
One year as a volunteer, I had the good fortune of helping to package these 'baskets' and deliver them to families. It was a moving experience. As I distributed the food, I saw how many of the items like eggs, a turkey, fruit, were things I had easily taken for granted in the past. I'd always enjoyed Christmas meals without thinking of the possibility of not being able to. It was humbling, and working in a group with other volunteers made me feel like I was part of something worthwhile. It was a win win - humbling, heart opening, and authentically community building.
I've come to experience that what I felt in the instance above, is characteristic of all works that I've been involved with during my three years at the Center.
Whether you are a spiritual seeker or someone who just wants the opportunity to do some good in the world, the Divine Lineage Center is a place to contact. As an organization they exclude none, and focus their attention as a priority on those in need in all aspects of life.
This is a beautiful growing community offering healing and the foundational tools for personal transformation. This organization has something to offer anyone who is seeking a deeper understanding and meaning along their personal spiritual journey.
We are a group of dedicated people helping in any way possible to bring peace and understanding to the globe. Whatever is possible to do to meet those ends we do. That is our goal, motto and our creed. Thank all who work towards the same.
Hi, Its beautiful place with pure nature. I'm beginning in spiritual knowledge and this is what I was looking for all my life, Thank you Divine Lineage, Ivona
This is great place to touch the Divine. Pure Nature and peacefull place is giving everyone peace of mind. I can extend the Spiritual knowledge. Thank you, Namaste, Marek
I have been participating in both in-person and remote meditation and healing events lead by the master healers of the Divine lineage since 2006 and have experienced levels of soul healing and transformation that continue to unfold and uplift my life and well as the lives of my family members.
It is rare to find a community of human beings working together from many places around the world to help raise the consciousness of humanity.
The Divine Lineage is a beautiful and inspiring model for how people can create together with the single focus of serving others.
The center is a non-religious, spiritual community of individuals committed to serving and uplifting humanity. This non-profit center welcomes all people in need of healing, worldly and spiritual healing and desiring to uncover and fulfill their life purpose.
Since 2012 I have been a seva (service) volunteer at the Divine Lineage. These past five years I have been a part of the Divine Lineage staff has continued to deepen my experience of the Divine Lineage Center as a place where people from all walks from life are received with deep love and have the ability to heal and awaken their soul spark in ways our human mind's can never imagine or fully comprehend.

The Divine Lineage Healing Center, run by Divine Assistants International is a place of peace and healing that is second to none. The people working there have dedicated their whole life to the service of others and share healing knowledge that is comparable to nothing else I've seen so far. The many times I've been there I always came back refreshed and ready to take on more of the challenges that our live has in store for us these days.
But not only are the beautiful people there are teaching powerful healing knowledge they also support the people who have hardly anything to live by feeding the homeless and poor in the surrounding area.
I highly recommend anyone interested in spirituality and selfless service to check out this organization.

I have spent time at their retreat centre, have participated in their distant online courses and have been involved with their charitable activities. Divine Assistants International are doing amazing work serving others and our planet. Their dedication and generosity is an inspiration and their service to humanity is a big blessing to all.
Profound and sincere spiritual teachers that created a safe space for meditation, learning and developing skills and knowledge. Deeply moving to work with them
Divine Assistants International are an outstanding and unique non-profit. I don't know of any non-profit who surpasses what they do in terms of their dedication and hard work to uplifting humanity, healing and helping others on a local and global scale through ancient knowledge practices that transcend any religion. This as well as their gifts of food and much needed items to those in need in the local community. The DAI team work 7 days a week fulfilling all they can to help others, they do an amazing job. I would love to see them being supported to further their beautiful and vital work which is needed in these turbulent times.
A heartfelt organization who really cares about the health and well-being of all human beings. They provide meals, clothes and their love and healing energy for the homeless, poor and undernourished on an on-going basis. Their self-less service and support in their community far surpasses other organizations. They offer on-going in-person and long-distance healing and enlightenment processes. I highly recommend this 24/7, non-stop non-profit organization to anyone who is looking to heal from the past and grow into their future with greater peace, joy and love in their hearts.
I have been a student and supporter of the Master Teachers of DAI, Monika Penukonda and Nityaananda (Dr. Clint Thompson) since 2008. Their hearts are truly as pure as their teachings. My greatest blessing is meeting them and Sri Sai Kaleshwar Swami from Penukonda, India. Swami Kaleshwar left his body in 2012, but his devoted Senior Teachers, Monika and Nityaananda tirelessly remain faithful to Swami and the Ancient Knowledge that Swami taught. We owe them a huge debt of gratitude for their selfless service to humanity. Their charitable works reach far and wide as well as being a huge supporter of their own community for many years. The staff at The Divine Lineage Healing Center (DAI) are dedicated, kind and loving souls that also work tirelessly supporting Monika and Nityaananda, The Center and all who come to visit, and also those who are studying from a distance. It would be a huge blessing for your soul to be able to visit the amazing power spot that is the Divine Lineage Healing Center, but if that is not possible, Monika and Nityaananda have made the Teachings available from a distance. When I am not able to visit the Center, I study online from my home; that too is an incredibly powerful experience. So, visit the Center or take an online course, and please, support them and their good works by making a donation ~ your soul will be very grateful. You can find Divine Assistants International at www.divinelineage.org
With Love and many blessings to all~
I have been attending programs offered by Divine Assistants International since 2005. Each program has been filled with new and profound content from the Palm leaf Manuscripts and each offered a rich and rewarding meditation program and service opportunities. Over the years of programs, I have experienced deep healing which has allowed me to give more of myself to others. To heal ourselves and the world is an important mission in these times. I feel so privileged to be able to develop tools and techniques through Divine Assistants and participate in offerings that bring healing to myself and the globe.
From an insiders point of view, everyone involved with the day to day operation at Divine Lineage (Divine Assistants International) gives 110% taking care of the Center. Close detail is given to taking care of others. The life lessons taught at Divine Lineage are monumental and life changing in the best possible way

My wife and I have been involved with Divine Assistants International (Divine lineage)for several years and have the highest regard for the entire organization. We recently published an article regarding why we donate and support this organization. Please see excerpt below;
"Not long after we started practicing Yoga over 25 years ago, one of our teachers began offering classes on Yoga philosophy; this became the beginning of our spiritual practice. Not knowing exactly where we were headed we began our search for our true path. In 2006 that path lead us to the teachings of Sri Kaleshwar Swami, Shirdi Sai Baba and the Divine Lineage Healing Center.
If you have been fortunate enough to spend time at the Divine Lineage Healing Center then you have experienced firsthand its powerful healing energy and great beauty. You also know the hard work and challenges that the staff has to contend with every day. Maybe you have done Seva there and have experienced some of these challenges yourself. We are very grateful to the beautiful souls who have chosen to dedicate their lives to taking care of this amazing Power Spot that Swami Kaleshwar created many years ago. We are all benefitting from their hard work and devotion. Even if you have never visited the Temple, you are receiving the blessings from the constant daily activities that take place there; abhisheks, pujas, charity work and much more. Their attention is always on all of us and we are all receiving the blessings from their devotion and their sacrifice. "
All in all this is a highly reputable organization with the best intentions for everyone, world wide. With students around the world, the spirit of love, kindness and living with an open heart is taught and practiced continuously.

Divine Assistants International, helps Willits Daily Bread, A Soup Kitchen in Willits California. Feed the hungry in our community. They buy food for us and deliver it to us at our food program sight. They make nutritious food and bring it to give to our diners. they also send money to our organization to help us with our mission to feed the hungry. Divine Assistants gives blankets and sock to our clients in the cold months, we are so blessed and grateful that they are here and are so lovingly generous.
This organization is truly here to serve the community and the world from feeding the homeless, having pujas for peace and sharing the ancient knowledge with anyone interested. The people who live here work selflessly in a beautiful community. It is always an enlightening experience to come here and assist them however I am able. This place is a blessing to the planet.
Divine Assistants International is what I most often refer to as Divine Lineage - the more time I spend there and with the people there, the more profoundly I understand the importance of living in spiritual community. One of the best things about that is so much of Divine Lineage's work is outreach online offering programs, music (bhajans), spiritual and daily life teaching, healing and so much more. I love that they are making spiritual community available to all even if you cannot be there and being there is its own special blessing. The hard work and dedication of Monika and Nityaananda and all the staff and support both onsite and all around the globe is inspiring and helps sustain me daily. I can see many Divine Lineages starting and growing locally and connecting with each other to help us all help each other on our spiritual path. I can see many open hearted and committed souls whatever there path awakening to the power of spiritual community and supporting each other recognizing that while we may be different candles, we are all one flame. Thanks and love and blessings to all.
I have been visiting and using the services of Divine Assistants International since before they became Divine Assistants International, that is, I began with them in 2009. Their service to the community they serve has always been exceptional. The quality of their work is superlative. They do what they say they will do. I am grateful to them and look forward to taking advantage of their work for a long time to come.

I choose to support the work at Divine Assistants because it has been a life changing experience for me. The love and dedication to this group is changing the world.
This organization - and everyone within this organization that we have come in contact with - have changed our lives. They create real value for us and our experience of living our lives. We are eternally grateful! Thank you DAI!
I am so grateful to be connected with The Divine Lineage Center. I came across this spiritual knowledge through a new and now very close friend. My spiritual journey has always been very important to me and I have finally found what I feel is right in my heart as far as spiritual work. In the past 6-12 months I have experienced so much growth in myself and such a shift in my life of which I accredit to the deep and powerful ancient knowledge that the DLC is teaching. In my experiences thus far, I am finding that this ancient knowledge is coming to the world in such a way that attracts not only individuals but families. Our family is consistently attending monthly full moon fire pujas and it's now something we look forward to. The energy is so beautiful and loving and it is radiating far and wide and the benefits are being felt full force! Divine Blessings!
Divine Assistants International, dba Divine Lineage Healing Center ("Center") gathers together profound resources to both assist those in need of food and basic necessities in the local communities around the Center and to support persons undertaking the serious challenge of awakening a state of consciousness beyond the physical senses. The Center's website at www.divinelineage.org contains much information regarding its humanitarian mission and the sacred knowledge and spirit that is the core of its existence - the energy of grace that bridges distinctions among spiritual paths and opens intuitive understanding of why one is alive.
I don't think words could convey how important Divine Assistants International has been to my life, my personal and spiritual growth. I have been participating with Divine Lineage Healing Center for about 4 years now and my life has changed so much. I have grown and healed in ways I never thought possible. I found God. I am a healer and I have learned healing techniques which I use daily to help others. It is a beautiful organization and they are not focused on making money, but on helping the world. Of course money is necessary to continue expanding to help more and more people, but they would do it all for free if they could. This organization is focused on doing God's work and I am proud to be a part of their group.
As the former director of a non profit myself, I am most happy to endorse and unequivocally recommend Divine Assistants International (DIA) and the Divine Lineage Healing Center (DLC). DIA is fully committed to serving all who come in front of them, regardless of ability to pay, and return those funds they do receive to their mission to share tools and techniques from the ancient palm leaf manuscripts of India and the teachings of the Indian saint Sri Kaleshwar for self realization, actualization and enlightenment. They offer a path for all to uplift and awaken their souls to their own divinity. DIA supports the work of those it serves offering scholarships, guidance and support to sister teaching centers throughout the country while making many of their own programs accessible to all via webcast. The DLC is committed to training a new generation of healers in these powerful techniques to help ease the suffering on the globe. I could not recommend this organization and its mission any more highly.
I am grateful to have an opportunity to share my experience of how Divine Lineage Healing Center/Divine Assistants International provides and supports lasting healing and positive change in the world.
I am a meditation teacher at a recovery center in Seattle that is also committed to providing community where positive change and lasting healing can take place.
DLHC's wonderful bhajan band offers free public broadcasts of healing bhajan music, a style of singing where one person leads by singing a line and those who have gathered repeat. A common style of singing in India, bhajans are a vehicle for expressing joy, love and pure devotion to the Divine and their singing powerfully create a sense of belonging and unity .
About a year ago, after watching one of DLHC's bhajan recordings on Ustream the inspiration came to share a song from this recording with my meditation class at the recovery center. The response was so positive that I contacted Divine Lineage to share my students' gratitude. DLHC immediately offered to find a way to connect with us more often so that the initial sharing of one song has grown to a monthly hour-long public broadcast dedicated to our community at the Seattle recovery center.
I cannot even begin to express the depth of joy and healing that we experience from these broadcasts. This powerful, healing outreach from DLHC/DAI is personal and full of love and happiness. The broadcasts provide me, as a teacher, with a powerful platform for sharing life-changing technologies for healing. Thank you Divine Lineage Healing Center for your ever-present support, dedication and love!
Divine Assistants International has helped 1000's of people worldwide with the highest quality distance spiritual programs. They deliver outstanding results. I am one of many who have benefited from their loving attention and ongoing support.
And the regular web access to live events and teachings means anyone can participate
and connect from around the globe. As I live in Europe this is especially highly rated.
Their work with the poor and homeless is inspirational and serves as a role model of how we can support our local communities as part of our spiritual practice.
Thank you DAI!

Divine Assistants International is a great organization that practices what it preaches.
They teach the ancient knowledge of Love as taught by many great saints and sages. Sri Kaleshwar introduced this knowledge to the West, and the folks at Divine Assistants are continuing his great works.
As a student, volunteer, and donor my family and I have had many many great moments at the center in Laytonville, CA. During the passing of my two sisters, my Mother and I were comforted by visits to the Center and the interactions with the people there. This is practical spirituality offered by Divine Assistants. I have seen this spirituality manifest over and over again at events, meditation classes, and work weekends.
I thank everyone involved for contributing to my personal growth, and encourage the reader to give it a try.
I really can't recommend Divine Assistants International, the Divine Lineage Healing Center and all the team involved highly enough. They have the highest dedication and commitment to helping humanity and not just the present generations but generations to come.
They are teaching authentic ancient spiritual knowledge which Sri Sai Kaleshwar introduced to the Western world and are staying true to Swami Kaleshwar's words and wishes, which takes clarity, discipline and lack of ego. This ancient knowledge written by the sages/rishis of India has been hidden from the world for a long time and now is the time for this knowledge to be shared and experienced. The knowledge comes from a lineage of Saints which includes Shirdi Sai Baba, Ramana Maharishi, Babaji, Buddha & Jesus, it is beyond any religion and will benefit everyone. It's essentially how every soul can become a divine soul and that it is possible. The center is actively practicing these teachings too.
They run global programs so that students from all over the world can participate which really brings a great difference to the lives of many, who in turn bring a difference to the lives of others - the ripple effect. Great work along with all the local community programs such as feeding those in need, may it all continue and may they be blessed that donations keep coming in to support this invaluable work.
The Divine Assistants are an incredibly dedicated group of students and teachers who bring the high divine energies to the world through in depth studies of the teachings of Sri Kaleshwar and the lineage of spiritual masters he is connected with. It has been an honor to help with the guru purnima programs and get to share this beautiful work.
The teachings of Sri Kaleshwar are made available through DAI programs and focus on love, peace and healing through the use of the ancient knowledge of the septarishis and saints of india. Sri Kaleshwar said: "First serve the humanity. Then come to spirituality. If they’re not serving the humanity, they’re not eligible to come to the spirituality. Standard law. It’s a golden statement." and: "Spirituality is one side. Humanity is another side. If you ignore the humanity, only do spirituality, that’s nonsense. Once we’re born as human, we have to care about humanity." DAI and Sri Kaleshwar's students are extremely active in charitable works within their communities all over the globe. I've been involved as a student, volunteer and donor since 1998 and everything that is taught and all that we do springs from a deep desire to decrease the negative aspects of this world we live in through our loving and caring acts.
These people give me hope for the future of human kind.
I've been practicing and following some processes of this lineage for about two years. Just to the extent that I felt comfortable with. I can attest at the potency of the processes and channels that this lineage opens. It's not an easy path but sure beats the alternatives.
Review from Guidestar
I begun searching for spirituality in 2006 in the busyness and stressfulness of my engineering profession. Through the years since 2008, I have learned many modalities with many teachers. I found this lineage through a friend in 2011. By this time I was pretty much had enough spiritual classes. However, I found myself pulled to this lineage...like a magnet. I have been following this lineage since then. Because the teachings are profound and wonderful. The teachings are like "food" for my soul. I was hungry for more...
I studied with a few of Sri Kaleshwar's senior students. Each of them are unique and wonderful. It is like a big puzzle. I learn different aspect of Swami and his teachings through each senior student I met & connected with. I especially love listening to their experiences and stories of Swami. I am learning a lot along the way and will continue to learn thorough out my life.
First time I visited the Divine Lineage was in 2013. The staff welcome me to the temple (Church) and I had a great time learning about each of the staff connection with Swami (Sri Kaleshwar-my teacher/guru/master). I have never physically met Swami. I visit the temple (Church) as often as my schedule allows me. At first, I saw and experience the temple (Church) as a visitor. So I have a lot of time to mediate and explore the ground. The energy at the temple is like visiting the Ashram in India and/or the Buddhist Monastery in Myanmar. I could spend hours and hours out on the grounds of the temple.
Then I saw the unity, dedication, devotion and open heart (super welcoming) in the staff and those who volunteers as I became more involved with volunteering during programs, Abishek/Aarathi and fire pujas. This non-profit organization/Church is made possible by the grace of the Divine, Swami, those dedicated staff and those wonderful volunteers/donors. It is wonderful to be a part of a community which serves the bigger (local and global) community.
The temple (Church) is a sanctuary for me. It is a place where I go to release-recalibrate-rejuvinate away from busyness of work/city/life. I learned more about myself there as I get out of my own way/mind. I learn to have quiet time for myself and community time with others in person. A community like that is hard to find in busy cities. As Swami have said...his teachings/knowledge are for his future, future students. Divine Lineage is one of the places he have blessed for his future, future students. It is a place to share, learn and grow with the Sai family.
The best way to learn about anything is to experience it yourself. If you have time, do check out the temple...Perhaps I will see you there...
Review from Guidestar
I have had the blessing and oppertunity to meet and learn from several of Sri Kaleshwar's senior students. They all are a beautiful reflection of himself and these amazing healing channels.
The past few years I have been spending more and more time at the Divine Lineage center learning more about the knowledge and participating in powerful high energy processes. I keep getting pulled back because of how these channels and their purity of the teachings are affecting me and everyone around me. There have been so many beautiful experiences that I have personally had myself. I have nothing but high praise and much gratitude for all the loving souls up there who are doing their divine work and holding the energy in such a positive and caring way. You have to experience it for yourself!

Review from Guidestar
I am to grateful Divine Lineage for all the work they are doing and all that they are giving. A team of very dedicated souls that live austere lives are giving their all to make the Ancient Healing knowledge available in this time in which we need it so much. At the same time they support so many of the poor in their own community. Divine Assistants creates a high example of charity and service.
Great to find out about GuideStar. As a student, friend and assistant to Sri Kaleshwar from 1999 until he left his body in 2012 I can truly say I am dedicated for the rest of my life to his mission to create people who can help heal the planet not only of physical issues but of heartbreak. I also am dedicated for the rest of my life to the Divine Lineage Healing Center (Divine Assistants International) which is a Church Sri Kaleshwar guided a group of dedicated people to establish in Laytonville CA to help lead his work ongoingly from the West. I am on the Board of Divine Lineage, a donor, a volunteer and a continuing spiritual student of the work that the dedicated people there continue to carry on. Having only recently discovered GuideStar I was dismayed but found it useful to learn about one person's negative experience. All I can say is bless her as it is not my experience nor would I or anyone I know who represents Divine Lineage use energy or any other means to do what she described about her experience. Hopefully she will find it in her heart and mind sometime to forgive as I know such behavior would never be consciously or intentionally done. Sri Kaleshwar always said spirituality requires a person to step toward the divine freely so the divine can step to you; also he said it is a noble but challenging path full of illusion; most important to me he said the key to success is an open heart and recognition that there are many candles but only one flame. No one and nothing should be left out including critics because we all have to find a way to make it together. There is so much I can say about the value of this work and organization to my life, my family and my friends. A lot I said in a book I wrote about ten years of my experience: "Sri Kaleshwar and Me - A Saint Teaches An Executive To Live, Love and Lead." There is much I am and will be saying beyond that book. Now just let me say "thank you" to all the dedicated people at Divine Lineage for all you are doing. You are true leaders on the globe helping to heal us all and as Sri Kaleshwar often said "Leaders bring peace." Gary Douglas Taylor
Review from Guidestar
After 8 years of being a student of Swami Kaleshwar, I decided to move to another lineage. The people at the Divine Lineage Church and one of its Florida members, Chinello, will not leave me alone. It has been a month and they are still sending energy, adjusting my energy and that of a friend. My friend has a chronic disease, so the adjustments are making her more and more in pain. They will not listen to the repeated e-mails I have sent and they will not stop sending energy.
Kaleshwar's teachings are good, but his teachers have huge egos and don't have a depth understanding of what they are doing. The channels are powerful. Everything may me okay until you try to leave. Don't get involved.
