Fwd: Guru Gita Discussion - Saturday, April 2, 11:30 am PST

[Guest guest]

> What are you doing this Saturday at 11:30 PST?

>

> If you have Instant Messenger (it is free and easy to download),

> I have an offer that

> you ought to consider.

>

> A group of devotees gather together to share insights and inspiration

> on the Guru Gita,

> the Song of the Guru. This is a beautiful and poetic piece of

> Sanskrit literature translated by

> our Swamiji in which Lord Shiva explains to Parvati who the Guru is

> and how one can relate to the Guru

> and receive the blessings of the Guru.

>

> As Swamiji always says "he has no favorites" when it comes to Holy

> Scripture. Well, I have

> lots of favorites! The Guru Gita is my foundation scripture. For me,

> it "says it all". If you aren't certain

> why we have gurus or why you might want to align yourself with a guru,

> this scripture spells it

> out clearly. In addition to our group discussions, Swamiji has

> recorded online classes

> on the Guru Gita on the shreemaa.org site.

>

> There is something more to these meetings. Something very blessed

> occurs each Saturday.

> We have become a satsang. We inspire each other and we are joined in

> Truth.

>

> Shree Maa and Swamiji have encouraged all of the members of the Forum

> to join in these

> discussions. You don't need any experience or background. You don't

> even need the text. We will

> type out the verses each week before we discuss them. Shree Maa and

> Swamiji give us "fresh blessings"

> each week. We can even feel their presence. And Swamiji is always

> ready to answer our questions.

>

> This is a rare opportunity... to study Holy Scriptures under the

> guidance and blessings of two Satgurus.

>

> If you don't know what a Satguru is, come to class and find out!

>

> Your loving friend,
