Sri Swami Satchidananda, was one of the most revered yoga masters of the 20th Century who dedicated his life to peace both for the individual and the world.
He was a pioneer in the Interfaith movement and in 2014 was recognised as an ‘Interfaith Visionary’ by the Interfaith Center of New York. For nearly fifty years he organised numerous interfaith programs, retreats and conferences around the world and in the 1980’s was inspired to create the Light Of Truth Universal Shrine – LOTUS – in Virginia USA.
It is the world’s first interfaith shrine to contain altars for all the world’s major faiths. It is a place of unity, fostering respect for all faiths and recognising that Truth is one, paths are many.
The interior of the shrine is constructed in such a way to remind us that all the faiths have the same light as their source and that we are all sisters and brothers in spirit.
