Guest guest Posted October 2, 2003 Report Share Posted October 2, 2003 from Sri Swamiji´s Speech in Mosbach/Germany: "...Then I asked Narendra if there are any persons who will sacrifice and live and protect the centre, he said there are many who wish to do so. In USA, Trinidad and in Malaysia, there are such people. More than giving money, looking after the center in a responsible manner, maintaining it and protecting it are important. I think that this is the God given correct time. Upamanyu and Agastya tried in the past to get Swamiji’s permission to start such centers. Hiranya Pura in Holland served its mission too. I want our own centre. A place for spiritual pilgrimage, freshness, courses and some Ayurvedic discussions. Swamiji’s children can teach Vedanta, Kriya, Musical and Ayurvedic ideas. I feel that this will be the Euro centre. There will not be any more centers in any other place in continental Europe. It is too much to expect everyone to come to London as the costs of coming there is far too much. I will decide which place is good to start this centre. If there is a center, then I can come one-week end every two or three months (very loud applause). Yes. I can come once every two months. I have decided that this is the Datta Sankalpa. Ganapathy Sankalpa, Mother Mary Sankalpa. Coming to this place is a one-hour drive. The return too is one-hour drive. I am tired of this car journey. I want a small centre. I don’t want a gigantic centre. I don’t want a big temple. I don’t want any temple. My courses are my temples. Meditation courses to help the needy people. I don’t want a decorative building to attract people. We don’t want a big Datta building. A small hall with some small apartments. A small cottage for Swamiji and two dorms. It has to be near Frankfurt or Düsseldorf. I have already been to those places before. Let us see later. I am happy with the announcements Narendra made in German language. I have given permission. Don’t think that Narendra or some people came up with their own idea. Time will set everything. It is the force of mother Goddess. Please support and help. We are not permanently here on earth. So many devotees have children, they are already chanting Datta Stava, and we want this continuation. It is not a religion, not Christian, or Moslem, or Hindu – it is a human religion. Also music therapy. They want to live in the center like Padma in USA. These people who serve are like servants for the cause. May be you all will support this center. Give your generous donation. Sri Swamiji elaborates how people can contribute to the center. Do you all need such a center? Please raise your hands. People shout YES and raise their hands. Go Ahead. I pray God. I bless. I promise that when the center is there I will come as much as possible. I will also send good teachers so that you can learn good things. (Thunderous applause). Trinity Datta is the founder of this center. You all should join. Come forward and give good support. In Trinidad the support for the construction of 85 feet Hanuman was wonderful. It is a big pilgrimage and tourist center. It has made people happy. They have spent million of Rupees on the development. The support by the people and Trinidad government was great. In USA too Americans have made the two centers in Louisiana and Pennsylvania. Now the force has come to Germany. I am happy. Let there be one center for the whole of Europe. Not one in all countries. The roads are good. People can travel. Yesterday I traveled by car from Friedrichschafen to Neckargemund. I am not tired. ..." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
