Swami Venkatesananda (1921-1982) was a disciple of Swami Sivananda in Rishikesh in the Indian Himalayas from 1945. The bibliographer has been a devotee of this master from 1975 to the present. Devotion overcomes death.
The bibliographer collected these many volumes of yoga teachings, most long out-of-print, from SV’s devotees in many countries.
Many of these books are not approved or official in any way. If they are useful to seekers, they will have served their purpose.
This bibliographer offered this collection to the master in Tsawassen British Columbia Canada in 1975. Swamiji prepared the books and shipped them for conservation to Swami Lakshmi Ananda at Beacon Yoga Centre in South Fremantle, Western Australia.
For cross-reference, there are chronological, country, subject and translation specialist bibliographies. Reminiscences by close devotees are also noted.
Unfortunately, the Venkatesa Library at Venkatesaya is no longer accessible; its URLs are included for historical reference. This bibliographer finds Venkatesaya’s contribution to Swamiji’s scholarship a significant effort. They may be accessed via The Wayback Machine https://archive.org/web/ at The Internet Archive:.https://archive.org.

Dear reader,
Please note that the great majority of these books were not written by Swami Venkatesananda. Thus, this effort might be considered an unofficial bibliography.
The master, Swami Sivananda, mostly wrote and printed his own essential teachings from his ashram in Rishikesh. In contrast, Swami Venkatesananda constantly traveled the world, describing himself as an itinerant monk, lecturing to small groups of seekers and never established a permanent base.
Swamiji’s lectures were best appreciated in person. The cadence and lilt, diction and tone of his voice, his posture, gestures, and facial expressions all contributed to the deeper meaning of his words. Unfortunately, Swamiji died in 1982 in Johannesburg so we no longer have that privilege.
However, Swamiji’s friends always recorded his talks and some of that audio, at least, is preserved on the Web. To really understand Swamiji’s teachings, this is where the seeker should start. The editing and transcriptions of these audiotapes which resulted in most of these books was done by amateurs whose listening, understanding and editing skills may have been imperfect.
However, these small print runs of Swamiji’s printed lectures were offered to him with deep love and devotion. For all their imperfections, this is why they should be honoured.
These little books provide academics, historians, and, yes, seekers, too, with a record of the spread of Swamiji’s teachings and a clue to the worldwide Sivananda yoga diaspora.
Books can never replace the guru, but they can be second best.
At thy feet,
Sadāśiva
