Subject: Maha Sri Sri Yoga @ Trivandrum, Kerala....... with Ms. Kamaleshji

The Maha Sri Sri Yoga course with Kamaleshji concluded today in Trivandrum. It
was a new year gift from Guruji for Trivandrum.
The event was a grand success with the young and old participating with lots of
enthusiasm. The participants were swept off their feet by Kamaleshji's charm
and people were dancing with joy at the end.
Many people shared their wonderful experinces at the end of the course. But the
experience shared by one participant stands out. He came on stage and declared
openly that he is a comitted leftist and was opposed to AOL and other spirutal
organisations. When his friend tried to bring him for the course he said he was
very sceptical and came to the course only because of his friends persuasion.
He had not done any AOL course earlier and was under the impression that the
attempt was to convert his ideology and make him a follower of Sri Sri. He then
went on say that the course was an eye opener for him as he was convinced
that the attempt was to only help people realise their fullest potential
through Yoga and for that no ideological conversion was asked for. He
proclaimed that from today onwards he would go around telling his Leftist
comrades that all of them should do the AOL courses because he was convinced
that the sole motive of AOL courses was only to help people and not to enforce
any sort of beliefs on anyone. He was also effusive in his praise of the way
Kamelshji handled the course.
The Press conference by Kamaleshji at the Trivandrum Press club on Saturday was
also a brilliant show. Journalists who started the conference with grim faces
and sceptical questions were floored by Kamaleshji's way of handing the
questions.At the end many surrounded Kamaleshji with questions and were trying
to get more information on Yoga.
Thanks Kamaleshji for this wonderful course and once again a million pranams to
Guruji for giving all of us such wonderful things in life.
Jai Gurudev
Rajesh
