Guest guest Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 Sat Nam Everyone, It's been quite a day and I'll need to sleep tonight to make up for last night. (staying up 'til 3am chanting Dhan Dhan all the while thinking that I was going to lead Sadhana was not workable). I went to go and teach today and no one was there. That has never, ever happened in my 15 years of teaching, and it's not like any of them knew of Yogiji's passing. I am still grappling with that one. The news is still hitting me here and there. I've told myself for a long time that my relationship with Yogi Bhajan was already in the subtle realm and that whenever I need some guidance or connection I could sit with the Tratakam photo or use the Complete Adi Mantra for Individual Meditation. It's like I never wanted to want anything more from him, as I still had plenty of homework, but I know I still had it in the back of mind that I could call on him or write. Now that he is gone, so is any imagined sense that someone bigger than me would somehow "save" or complete me. I'm reminded of that old saying "we are the ones we've been waiting for". There is certainly a growth opportunity here. I am just beginning to sample it's vastness as I go between a deep sadness and a pretty sober happiness. The man did live his life fully and he left a pretty clear the path for the rest of us to follo. Gurumustuk Singh and the folks at Sikhnet have put up a wonderful section dedicated to Yogiji. There is a wonderful photo gallery, details about the Memorial Service, some great videos and other goodies. Just head over to http://www.sikhnet.com/YogiBhajan I was particularly touched by reading the letter by Ek Ong Kaar Kaur at http://www.sikhnet.com/sikhnet/discussion.nsf/by+topic/6534723A8FC3842687256F270\ 00D9F11?OpenDocument while listening to http://radio.sikhnet.com:8080/ramgen/MVCMedia/video/sikhism/2001-Dasvandh-IamIam\ ..rm?usehostname in the background.
