Guest guest Posted July 4, 2009 Report Share Posted July 4, 2009 I thought you might enjoy this: Yogi Bhajan (at Summer Solstice 1971): “Destroy your negativity, generate all positivity, and yourself you'll become a living God. The difficulty is I am not working for myself. I want to modify you so you become great and things will become smooth in the future. “You do not understand. You just come here to meet Yogi Bhajan and everything is groovy. And we are just camping out and there is good food and that kind of stuff. That is not it. This is not a retreat! “We have not come here to retreat. We have come here to advance. I heard news this was “a retreat.†I don't keep a retreat. I have never retreated. “Out of all my mistakes, I learn wisdom. I do not lament and cry on my mistakes at all. I do one hundred and one mistakes each second! I don't care! But my mistakes teach me what I must know. Therefore I don't retreat and I won't let you retreat!†Me again: In other words, we do solstice sadhanas, yoga festivals, training camps, yoga gatherings, courses, workshops, intensives - but NOT retreats. The Master didn't even care for the word. Blessings abounding... Guru Fatha Singh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
