Spiritual practices

2010-04-14T16:32:00.000-07:00

Sita rama,

The Adhik- extra month has begun today. Please try to do some extra practices as per your time and convenience. Any Vishnu i.e. Rama practices are recommended. Particularly those going to Mt. Kailash surely do extras. Atleast 11 malas daily of OM NAMAHA SHIVAYA along with extra Rama mantras are best.

An excellent time and opportunity to gain extra benefits and expedite the spiritual growth process.

Ma bapuji

ANANDI MA & DILEEPJI’S ANUSTHAN—FOR YOU & YOUR FAMILY

2010-01-27T15:17:00.001-08:00

ANANDI MA & DILEEPJI’S ANUSTHAN—FOR YOU & YOUR FAMILY

Sun, Feb 21–Sat, Feb 27
Prerequisite: Shaktipat in this lineage
Registration Deadline: Feb 7. 2010
Please note: NO last-minute photos will be accepted. This deadline will be strictly observed.
*********************************************************************
A rare and unique opportunity! Ma and Bapuji have done many anusthans (periods of intense practices) over the past years, but in 2009, for the very first time, they did an anusthan of 1,275 malas of the Ram mantra specifically for the growth and welfare of disciples and to help with the siddhi of the Ram mantra.
“The joy and satisfacti on this anusthan bestowed was awesome. It gave such an immense sense of accomplishment of our Guru’s work. Guruji’s words, ‘Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu,’ resonated and the heart poured out Rama’s love. It was an experience unlike any other. As we looked at the altar and oft en at all the photos of disciples who had participated, a unique level of energy poured out. We would love to start the New Year with such an anusthan.
*********************************************************************
We hope many more will participate.

1. Send a donation. —the final off ering of the mantras—will be off ered by Anandi Ma on Holi, Dhyanyogiji’s Realization Day.The joy of contributi ng further for your growth is the bliss of both Guru and disciple. One way to think about it is to send a particular amount per mala, but you may send any sum that your heart and finances allow.
2. Email individual digital photograph(s) of yourself or family members that you would like included in the anusthan. Please do not send group pictures. We must receive your photos by FEBRUARY 7. Please note: NO last-minute photos will be accepted. This deadline will be strictly observed.
3. Mark your calendar to particpate in the sankalpa (statement of intention) and possibly the Purnahuti (final offering) with Ma and Bapuji. It is a very special gift to participate. ALL will receive a special blessing. The sankalpa will be done through a conference call so that all sponsors can participate, no matt er where they live. And depending on interest, the Purnahuti will be web broadcast to certain centers. If you are interested in participating in the web broadcast, please your local meditation group leader.

Sankalpa Date & Time: Sunday, Feb 21 from 9:00 am to 9:30 am (PST)
Purnahuti Date & Time: Saturday, Feb 27 from 5 to 7 pm (PST) (tentative)
