Some links people may want to look at while considering the

pockross website

 

Dear Harsha and Jerry,

 

As long as my experience is being used as a link to vilify Yogi Bhajan, the

3HO community and the Sikh Dharma Brotherhood in general, here are some

other more elevating links I found for people to look at, while considering

the pockross website

Dear Pieter:

I do not know if Harsha or Jerry are trying to "vilify" anyone or

anything I believe they are simply keeping people informed.

Spirituality is a big business and unfortunately there have been

countless people hurt by the process of deifying teachers.

When I do yoga the yoga I do is Kundalini yoga and the technology

never fails me. I have also met Yogi Bhajan and he was very kind to

myself and my family as was everyone else at the 3HO center where I

took classes. Yogi Bhajan gave me a spiritual name and corresponded

with me for a while but my primary teacher was not a Sikh though the

technology is basically the same. The last time I saw Yogi Bhajan

was at a small intimate gathering and he was depressed and looked me

straight in the eyes and commented that his biggest mistake was

starting a spiritual organization. Not having had any negative

experiences with him I can not comment on the various accusations

though they are so numerous that one has to wonder. However, a

"Master" implies one has "made it" they have become the "self" and

such a being would not be obviously depressed nor would they lose

their temper and curse at people. This is where the problem lies,

the teachings that Yogi Bhajan brought to us are wonderful for the

teachings stand alone in truth, however, to present oneself as more,

as enlightened, is not truth and becomes harmful to many.

Ironically, the teacher I chose to go with also has gone down the

same path as Yogi Bhajan and now presents himself as "there" and has

the string of names to go along with the illusion. I believe Kabir

said something to the effect "Listen my friend, millions seek the

path but few will find the way" (not an exact quote). It is

important for us all to realize that no one person can bring us home

and to keep the various teachers in perspective as we travel.

Namaste,

Linda

somewhere. No path goes nowhere. Paths, places, sights, perceptions,

and indeed all experiences arise from and exist in and subside back

into the Space of Awareness. Like waves rising are not different than

the ocean, all things arising from Awareness are of the nature of

Awareness. Awareness does not come and go but is always Present. It

is Home. Home is where the Heart Is. Jnanis know the Heart to be the

Finality of Eternal Being. A true devotee relishes in the Truth of

Self-Knowledge, spontaneously arising from within into It Self.
