Another SY regains lost faith, desires to be own master and announce the Truth

[Guest guest]

Dear devotees of the Adi Shakti,

 

i have received an inspiring email that should bolster our faith and confidence

that Shri Mataji is working around the obstacles and overcoming the negativity

the keeps Her incarnation and teachings suppressed. The email also reveals that

many SYs are still unaware of the www.adishakti.org website despite spending

years in Sahaja Yoga. Thus it is obvious that WCASY and the SY leadership does

not want SYs to know the existence of the websites and forum. However, given the

years of drought and utter lack of new seekers to nourish their collectives, the

camel will have to drink from the Oasis of Truth or die. The longer it

stubbornly resists and hides/forbids others from visiting it, the weaker the

herd gets from loss of faith.

 

Even the plight of a world in turmoil and self-destruction does not disturb the

conscience. Even the silence of an aging, incapacitated Mother who for decades

sacrificed family and comfort to spread the Truth does not move it to act

urgently. Even the utter poverty and despair of the collectives does not budge

the beast. It is as if, devoid of dharma and sense of sacred duty, it is on its

own deathbed too. That being the case, the responsibility now falls on each and

every SY to regain the lost faith, be your own master and announce the Truth and

Vision of the Adi Shakti:

 

" The world is in turmoil today. People everywhere are anxious about the future.

What they need is the soothing, uniting, elevating spiritual message of Sahaja

Yoga. They have to be enabled to experience " Self Realization " and thereby

attain inner transformation. Only then will they begin to regard all human

beings as members of one global family regardless of their race, culture etc.

Only then will they discard hatred and violence. Sahaja Yogis have a momentous

responsibility at this crucial time in human history. They have to spread Sahaja

Yoga in all the parts of the world by written and spoken word.... For this

purpose, a well thought out approach is required. "

 

Only the Divine Message of the Adi Shakti announcing the Blossom Time of the

Last Judgment and Resurrection will enable people to experience Self-realization

and continue meditating for the rest of their lives. The Divine Message is the

soothing, uniting, elevating spiritual message that will enlighten all human

beings to regard themselves as members of one global family regardless of their

race, culture etc. Only then will they discard hatred and violence. The Sahaja

Yoga Subtle System Religion has never, is not now, and will never accomplish

that. No one is really interested in stuff that is far better presented and

peddled by thousands of eastern gurus/

western professional teachers/yoga organisations (like the advertisment to

participate in " Egypt's 2nd International Yoga Festival " just posted at the

forum a few minutes ago),

 

 

Egypt's 2nd International Yoga Festival

" Unity in Diversity: Return to the Light "

March 24-31 2007

 

The Egypt Yoga Festival's remarkable history: Our first Yoga Festival this past

March was the very first time such an event had ever taken place in Egypt or the

Middle East for that matter. This historic event was coordinated by T.E.N Tours,

Egypt's highly reputable travel agency that specializes in organizing various

international events. The great success of the Egypt's 1st Yoga Festival far

exceeded expectations. The Festival was embraced, supported and attended by

representatives of the entire international community. It did not matter what

race, religion, color, creed or background one came from. Unity In Diversity.

The ancient science of Yoga, meaning “to join” or “union” is for all and is

universal. Yoga is not a religion nor does it oppose such. It is purely

spiritual and does not contradict anyone's sincere faith and is practiced by

all. Yoga is the art of right living. It is a system of integral education,

education of not only body, mind or intellect, but also the inner spirit, the

inner Light for Radiant Health! This was the successful message, embraced and

understood by all who attended the 1st Egypt Yoga Festival. We thank the

political, religious, cultural and educational leaders for their overwhelming

support and trust as well as our sponsors.

 

Egypt's 2nd International Yoga Festival: In the planning of Egypt's 2nd

International Yoga Festival, Mr. Hossam Dar wish, expert in tourism, festival

management and specialized events, and vice president of The Arab Yoga

Committee, with Mr. Anthony Sadasiva, a well known yoga expert versed in all

aspects of yoga, and coordinator of numerous international symposiums,

festivals, retreats and interfaith programs, developed and share a special bond

and a mutual vision for this 2nd International Festival. As the story goes, In

the beginning there is the oneness of an All, the Eternal Light that connects

all things in purity, universal Peace and Harmony. Throughout historical time, a

darkness (ignorance) had permeated mankind blinding him to ones true nature. The

divine inspiration of prophets and messengers were sent forth during different

periods of time as a reminder to us of such Divine Light, a Light (awareness)

that exists within each one of us to transcend the sufferings of our material

existence. Even today through the turmoils and stresses of outer material life

breeds the duality in the form of anger, hatred, greed, jealousy, tension and

internal strife. In our quest for divine wisdom and understanding we seek a

return to the Light, the purity and ethics associated with the teachings of the

great masters throughout time in order to bring about Unity, Compassion and

Peace for ourselves, hence all of humanity.

 

The 2nd International Yoga Festival brings together very experienced

multidimensional and distinguished teachers of the highest order from several

continents to share their profound knowledge in an open atmosphere. Festival

participants of all levels will explore, enjoy and find interest in topics

ranging from philosophical, scientific, creative, physical and ethical cultures.

The main physical Hatha Yoga Instructors are HA Wafaa, Jonathon Panks, Heather

George, Dr. Stephanie Thankappan, Norbu Oberdorfer, Dr. Yogita Mehta, Guru

Dileepji and Lila Leuzzi. Their combined experience will provide quality yoga

classes for the beginner, intermediate and advanced student while encompassing

the main teaching styles of Hatha Yoga, Sivananda, Ananda, Iyengar, Ashtanga

Vinyasa, Bihar, Kundalini and Gentle Yoga. These instructors shall also share

with us special workshops. Lama Tenzin will give wonderful talks on Kindness and

Compassion, The Noble Truths, Meditation and create a beautifully artistic Sand

Mandala for “Compassion,” designed to develop concentration, meditation within

its colorful creative beauty scheme for all to see and experience. GS Sachdev,

and our stagnant, demoralised collectives and almost empty, free public program

halls bear stark testimony to a proven collective failure ............. month

after month, year after year, decade after decade. The fact that these eastern

gurus/western professional teachers/yoga organisations have just begun to gather

financial strength and are rapidly mushrooming their trademark brands all over

should serve as a stark and timely warning to all SYs/WCASY that their SYSSR

(Sahaja Yoga Subtle System Religion) is about to be made almost useless and

redundant. This is because if you put one little fish and two eggs for ten

people with one chili to say that it is Sahaja Yoga, maybe a lemon, they will

think, " What's this going on here? Wishy-washy stuff. " i assure you that once

Shri Mataji attains Mahasamadhi the wishy-washy stuff of SYSSR will collapse as

only Her presence now sustains the remaining feeble attempts to revive a cause

devoid of truth, dharma and conscience.

 

But we should not despair as Shri Mataji has promised to and will establish

Sahaja Yoga before She leaves. All we need to do is to follow Her 1980s/March

1994 instructions to the letter. Like in the family we are getting everything

from the fridge and joyously giving it to each and every seeker, so that they'll

be very happy to take whatever they like. This is happening for the first time

ever in the history of Sahaja Yoga. It is indeed comforting to know that there

are souls out there who are inspired to act the same (email below).

Dear all - who so ever is behind this most important website;

 

I am most thankful to Shri Mataji and you for allowing me to finally get to know

true collectivity. After a hint from very dear yogis in Northern England, I have

been browsing your site for hours this last weekend, enoying, say, a lot of

" mental/intelectiual relief " , a return of believed lost faith and determination

as well as - " on top of it " - cool virations in my sahasrara.

 

Coming across you has been absolutely in line with numerous, not always

positive, experiences in the so-called collective; a couple of dreams in which

Shri Mataji has been preparing/showing the way for myself and the family (plus

just one more yogini) in a place, where there are some 30/40 SYs, and " growth "

of SY during almost 14(!) years has only taken place through married partners of

few yogis coming here and some courageous souls/children beeing born in

this...Hamburg, Germany - which is actually the Agnya of Germany, of the " Right

heart " .

 

I am confident to be inspired enough now to become more and more my own guru and

to announce; starting maybe with some collective introspection...

 

After all, it was in this Germany where som 450 years back one catholic monk

stood up against " the System " , one lonley realized soul by the name of - Martin

Luther.

 

At that time only, tragically through his efforts, he woke up sleeping Nishumba

- and although Shri Mataji finished both these 2 brothers some time ago on

subtle level, their bhoots can still be very much found within the minds of many

SYs, not only in Germany...

Anyway, those of us, who have to go ahaed, will do just that; no time to be

wasted.

 

If you feel that there is anything by which you could keep me updated in terms

of practical information etc, please fell free to do so and maybe add me to your

mailing list.

 

Thank you again; with all brotherly love and respect,
