Swami Venkatesananda's Centenary Celebrations
100 years since his birth
Swami Venkatesananda was the first yogi to come to Australia – certainly Western Australia - where he came in 1961 as the guest lecturer of the University of Western Australia (UWA) Adult Education programme.
​
“His public tour was a tremendous success culminating in the Physics Theatre which was packed to the highest tier to hear his discourses on Yoga and Christianity”. He held and won the hearts of everyone present with his clear and lucid explanation of this difficult subject, also his wonderful sense of humour which had the audience rocking with laughter.”
​
At these lectures were those whose lives changed direction and who would never lose contact with the Swami. Foremost amongst these was Nancy Horwood (Swami Lakshmiananda) who was pivotal in the founding in 1972 of the first non-residential John Street Ashram in North Fremantle and in 1976, the residential Sivananda Ashram Beacon Yoga Centre in Fremantle (Beaconsfield).
