Another chance arose to meet with a Native American Indian. The public television station of Penn state University interviewed Sonya French-Begay of the Three Rivers American Indian Center. She was trying to raise awareness to the desecration of Indian land by Mining companies strip mining for Uranium. Their methods have caused tremendous environmental and health hardships to the land and the

We just returned from a public meeting with one of the Native People's Grandmothers, Agnes Baker Pilgrim from the Takelma nation, who is touring the world with their message of peace and hope. She spoke about the Mother Earth and the need to respect her, and about water how we all come from it and that it is sacred and has a spirit. She stressed the importance of not only respecting our elders

It has long been the desire of many yogis in the Australian collective that the divine gift of realisation be shared with our Aboriginal brothers and sisters. This wish materialised last Friday at the Lilydale Showgrounds as Sahaja Yoga was invited to give realisation at the Yarra Valley Indigenous Health Expo.This unique opportunity was brought to fruition through the special efforts of Yarra

There are many things in maori culture and also of every culture, that are Truth, and it has been an interesting sometimes difficult journey sifting through the conditionings to find the truths of maori culture. I initially saw all the negative aspects of maoridom and it has only been through Sahaja meditation,that I have been able to learn the depth of knowledge and history of Maori culture. It

The Teton Sioux Chief Tashunca-Uitco (Crazy Horse) had a final vision in which He saw his people being driven into spiritual darkness and poverty while the white people prospered in a material way all around them. But even in the darkest times, he saw that the eyes of a few of his people kept the light of dawn and the wisdom of the earth, which they passed on to some of their grandchildren. He

The Kagaba (Kogi) people of Columbia in South America have a belief in Aluna, ‘my Mother’, as creator. The mother of our songs, the mother of our seed, bore us in the begining of things and so she is the mother of all types of men, the mother of all nations. She is mother of the thunder, the mother of the streams, the mother of the trees and of all things. She is the mother of the world and of

This is a kinship term of the Yolngu, a coastal people of the north-eastern part of the land now known as Australia. Mandawuy Yunupingu, a Yolngu elder, has written:Yolngu culture in north-east Arnhem Land is among the oldest living cultures on earth. We live by codes of behaviour laid down by our totemic ancestors at the beginning of time, laws that are embedded in the land itself. The main

Sahaja Yogis are very aware that restoring or uncovering the innocence and establishing the Ganesha Tattwa is of utmost importance for us all. Tattwa is a Sanskrit word from the eastern religious traditions meaning the essential element and qualities (and so Tattwa of Shri Ganesha would indicate the Earth element, innocence, purity, wisdom, discretion, joy, and complete surrender and obedience to

“The essence of love is concern.” – Shri Mataji Nirmala DeviLove is the bond between human beings and all of Creation. Love is not selective or relative – it’s absolute, so we either Love or don’t Love, no various shades of it can exist. Love is a power, not an emotion. Love is experiencing that interconnectedness of Spirit, the Oneness of Creation, that spark of the fire of God within

Union of Heaven and Earth - Part 2Truth : we are all connected – people and Mother Nature and the inborn energies present in each. That is why it is so easy to share the Sahaja Yoga meditation technique; why helping another person get their self-realization is as simple as one candle lighting another; why after self-realization the healing and balancing process is so dynamic and effective – once

Sahaja Yoga-Indigenous mandala-Liallyn Fitzpatrick, July 2006Hi LiallynTraditionally, mandalas have a purpose, a meaning. Each element of the mandala is there for a reason. Could you give us some background on yours?J*Dear all,Okay, well, the mandala was drawn spontaneously with the symbols just sort of expressing themselves as I progressed. I’ve been drawing mandalas for a number of years. I don

Hello warriors! My husband Miguel and I just went to Peru for vacation - and I wanted to share a few things with you. Through a maya that happened to us (too long to write here) we ended up staying with some wonderful Sahaja yoginis in Peru for longer than we expected. The extra time we spent there corresponded with their presidential election which was VERY dramatic - one of the candidates

Dear Warriors,Ever since Liallyn bought up the issue of bringing Sahaja to the indigenous peoples of the world, Bernard has been curious to find out who, what and where the indigenous British are?Well it has been interesting, but the bottom line is history is a highly ambiguous subject and you soon realise that unless you were there you will never really know. So whats new, we should all be in
