A direct way to enter Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami’s world of thought is through his principal writings, which together form a carefully structured path of study and practice. “Dancing with Śiva” presents Hindu philosophy in a systematic, catechism-style format, while “Living with Śiva” turns to the realm of dharma, family life, ethics, and daily conduct. “Merging with Śiva” focuses on meditation, the workings of the mind, karma, and spiritual practice in depth. Many seekers also turn to “Loving Ganesha” for further insight into key Hindu concepts. These works are widely available, and they are also presented as an integrated “Master Course” that can be approached as a daily lesson system for those wishing to study in a disciplined and methodical manner.

The most authoritative gateway to his teachings is the Himalayan Academy and Kauai’s Hindu Monastery, which together preserve and present his legacy. Their official website offers his complete works, including books, daily lessons, articles, and extensive audio and video recordings of his talks and classes. “Hinduism Today,” the magazine he founded, is also available there and reflects his vision of how Hinduism can be lived and articulated in the modern world. Through these resources, one encounters not only doctrinal explanations but also the living voice of his guidance as a teacher and organizer of a spiritual community.

For those who feel drawn to a more immersive engagement, Kauai’s Hindu Monastery serves as the living center of his lineage and the institutional home of his teachings. Information is available on retreats, visitor guidelines, and avenues for personal spiritual guidance, and many devotees and students participate in online courses and webinars offered by his successor and the resident monastics. Study circles and devotee groups in various parts of the world often use the Master Course as the basis for collective study, worship, and sādhana, allowing his philosophy to be explored in a shared, disciplined setting. In this way, engagement with his teachings can unfold gradually, moving from reading and listening to active participation in a tradition that continues to embody his vision.
