History

The Pure Life Society started off as a paper organisation in the year 1949, aiming at promoting multi-racial and multi-religious understanding through lectures and forums and programmes promoting inter-action through inter-faith conventions, services at the Leper settlement, old folks homes, Serendah Boys’ Home and the like.

The Society was registered on 15 July 1950. The Founder-President of the Pure Life Society was Swami Satyananda, who, during the years 1945 to 1951, was involved in relief work among the poor, the orphans and the displaced children both in Singapore and Malaya, assisted by Mother (then Sister) Mangalam. In 1950 the Society found the need to establish a Home for orphans and underprivileged children as a result of World War II, which left, in its wake, several displaced families of widows and orphans. The first few barrack-like buildings were put up in 1952 by the Pure Life Society.

Following H.H. Swami Satyananda’s demise Mother who was then known as Sister Mangalam was appointed President of the organisation in 1961 by virtue of the Society’s Ordinance.

In the year 1957 the Society became a statutory body governed by the Incorporation Ordinance No. 15 of 1957. It is non-sectarian and non-communal, spiritual, cultural, educational and humanitarian in character. Its membership is open to all races and religions. The membership fee for the time being is RM20.00 per year and Life membership is RM300.00.
