Subject: Visit of Swamiji Sukhchatianya to Panama
Swamiji came to Panama country as water to a thirsty… to bring us light, love
and wisdom. He offer to our group a broader vision about what seva really is,
being an art of living teacher, accepting people and situations as they are and
living the present moment. He was interacting with all of us in a very
natural and simple way…sharing stories and deep knowledge. Swamiji just
left 3 days ago and we wanted him to come back soon.. His presense here was a
beatiful present from our dearest Guruji to his panamenian devotees, to clarify
the way and clean our minds and hearts…
He meets too, during his short visit, the mayor of the city to organize some
social projects in Panama and some Directors of one the most import ant
private university in Panama, to include our programs as part of their academic
teachings.
There were many interesting instances with him and some miracles too..but
there is something in special that I would like to share with my AoL family.
During the last 16 years we were doing our Part 2 course in a monastery in the
mountains. This monastery has been led by a catholic priest named "Father
Henry" who knows very well all of us. He is a very innocent gentleman, but
very firm and direct at the same time. The first day I invited him to meet
swamiji, and I took him to his room. They shared a time together and
afterwards Father Henry told me "he is a very good and nice person..very
nice", and like child, very proud he added: "he invited me for a walk in
the night".
Two days later they went for a walk.. and we were very surprised that they came
together to our satsang and father Henry was sitting shy and happy in the back
while we were singing bhajans and during swamiji knowledge session too.
Few days later swamiji told us that during their first meeting Father Henry
shared with him his profund worry because he has 72 years old and he is not
doing his task, which is teaching people to be priest, this is his profession
and he dont have the courage to face God when he dies.. but the last day of the
course he meets swamiji and told him that the day before a gentleman came to
visit him and told him he would like to be a priest… and to his sorprise when
father Henry accepted him, the gentleman added that he was not alone, they were
5 more boys who wanted the same. Of couse for Father Henry, the joy was
complete.
God is taking care of his church too!!
Love to all and Jai Guru Dev,
Ivis

Subject: Rishiji Satsang In London - Write Up
Dear Art Of Living Family,
On the 27th March 2010, Rishiji Nitya Pragya had delivered a satsang in Central
London to a capacity crowd of over 700 devotees and non-devotees alike. Though
it seems an impossible task to try and capture so many heartfelt feelings and
emotions in mere words alone, below is an attempt to share some personal
thoughts about the special event.
The evening began with a simple guided meditation to quieten the collective
consciousness..... In the heart of Europe's busiest and most dynamic city, a
powerful and intense silence had dawned, as the audience were eased into
leaving their troubles behind and entering a relaxed state of bliss, peace and
unshakable love. Upon opening their eyes, everybody was treated to seeing
Rishiji sitting at the front of the stage in all his majestic splendour, in
front of a glaring and ever present picture of our beloved Guruji. Before a
single note had been sung, before a single word had been uttered, the entire
hall was mesmerised with the vision and presence of such an amazing sight.
Starting with a brief introduction to himself, the Art of Living organisation
and the phenomenon we have come to know as Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Rishiji
proceeded to deliver the most profound knowledge in such a simple and coherent
manner, where even the most lay of spiritual people were moved into absorbing
these pearls of wisdom. In the space of speaking just a couple of sentences,
everybody felt an instant connection to Rishiji, as he was now speaking to each
and every one of them on an individual basis.
Rishiji then asked if the people sitting at the back of the packed room would
like to come and sit on the floor at the front.....within a split second of
making the announcement, the entire back half of the room had raced of their
chairs to sit as closely as possible to this great presence. Rishiji continued
to charm, delight and engage every single person in the room, with his usual
mixture of laughter and wisdom. Even at this early stage, the satsang had
become an intimate setting for audience and the star attraction, with everyone
hanging on every word he spoke.
What astounded me the most was how quickly Rishiji could win over so many
hearts in what is normally a very conservative and reserved London society.....
Watching the whole spectacle unfold, I no longer viewed this as an Art Of
Living event...........this was very much my own personal Rishiji mesmerising
everybody in sight......I feel so proud and honoured to be able to call Rishiji
my Guru, my Krishna, my friend, my greatest inspiration.......he is unlike
anyone or anything I have ever come across in my life..........only a Guruji as
great as ours could create such a wonderful and complete human being........
and to have him performing in full splendour right on front of my very eyes,
well I have no idea how to convey such feelings in this mail..........sometimes
to speak with words alone, is not to speak at all.........you've just got to
experience a satsang with Rishiji to know what I am talking about....
Continuing to inspire minds with his thought provoking knowledge, Rishiji
proceeded to ask permission from the room to sing his first song for the
evening. Many of us would have heard Rishiji sing on his numerous CD's and TV
appearances, but seeing and hearing him live is a life changing experience in
itself. A unique vocal combination of sweetness, power, panache and style, no
one will ever be able to move your heart the same way Rishiji can. He sings
from a space of pure bhakti, pure devotion to his Guruji. I would challenge
even the most hard nosed of people not to become a Krishna Gopi for the
evening...Rishiji will consume your heart with complete love.....you will
become deliriously happy, and have absolutely no idea why!
Whilst singing it was not so much a case of Rishiji connecting to the divine,
he actually became the divine. I couldn't control the tears in my eyes whilst
listening to such an amazing performance. The divinity within me, was listening
to the divinity in front of me........
Seeing Rishiji on stage, I felt the presence of Guruji emanating right through
him. I felt Guruji in front, behind, to the sides, inside and outside of me.
How Rishiji was able to allow such grace to flow through him and consume the
room I will never know. Rishiji had not only become the divine flute for
Krishna to sing his grace through, but indeed had become an entire
orchestra.....allowing every facet of Guruji to come flooding through.
From this heightened state of intoxication, Rishiji continued to mix and match
his music and wisdom for the entire evening. Songs ranging from heartfelt
ballads to all out dance bhajans had everyone going crazy.... How one person
can have so many talents and attributes is beyond comprehension....Coming
towards the end of the satsang, Rishiji began to wind everything down, to
ensure everyone was conscious enough to drive home safely...From beginning to
end, Rishiji, handled the audience with such immense power, style and control.
As if all the wisdom, music, euphoria and masti wasn't enough, we were all also
privileged to witness Rishiji on behalf of the Art Of Living Foundation, accept
a Guinness World Record certificate for an official AOL event in Pune on 12th
Jan 2010, where inspired by H.H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, the world's largest
sing-along was organised involving 2750 professional musicians and 104,637
participants singing "Vande Mataram", India's national song.
Coming along to a Rishiji satsang is such a beautiful and complete
experience.........by the end of the evening, myself and everybody in the room
only had one thought running through our minds...when could Rishiji do this all
over again!!!!!
Well, our prayers were immediately answered......we have another satsang with
Rishiji this Thursday on 1st April!!!!!!!!!!!
However, the divine was not content with simply given us what we had
asked....Guruji decided to give us so much more.........and its with great
pleasure that we can also announce that Sachin Limaye (Rishiji's talented
brother) will also be making a guest appearance and singing on the
night.......we'll have two legends on the same stage!!!
Our last satsang got sold out within a few days, and this one will surely do
so, in no time at all. I would strongly urge everybody to book tickets online
straight away at www.uk.artofliving.org, to ensure you get an opportunity to
experience everything I have described above. Further details are listed
