Dear Friends
Namaste !
I returned to my home country Nepal on Sunday, April 2 after a week long tour of South Africa (SA). It was a great opportunity for me to get a chance to visit SA at the invitation of UNICEF, ROSA and South Asia Inter-Religious Council on HIV/AIDS. Thanks a lot to Ian D.Macleod (Regoinal HIV/AIDS Advisor), Prof. A. Wassey (E. Secretary of the Council) UN-team in SA and all the wonderful members of the study tour.
As it was my first visit to SA, I naturally became excited. The progress and development the country has made seems so amazing. I had never thought that SA would be so well developed. Especially, the cities such as Johannesburg, Durban, Pretoria etc are not less developed than any other cities of the developed countries. Marvelous!!! It's the country which I feel like I have an inner connection with as Mahatma Gandhi had started his actual journey from this country. There is still the train station with an inscription along with the picture of Gandhi where he was thrown out of the train in charge of traveling in the first class. Fortunately, it's the country where the religious harmony seems to be flourishing and where the racial discrimination doesn't exist now any more. A long awaited dream has come true.
But, it is so sad to state that I was terribly shocked to have witnessed the devastation and panic caused by HIV/AIDS. Nearly 6 million people are detected to have got infected by this fatal disease. Poverty, and gap between haves and have nots are still grave problems that have so badly affected the country. Many innocent children are born with HIV positive; Grandparents are taking care of their grandchildren, as their parents have died or infected by AIDS. What a terrible scene. I was extremely shocked by this very terrifying and shocking play of death. Throughout my visit only a question kept banging on my head - WHY ? WHY ?? WHY ???
A few terrible questions have taken away my sleep. Can we stop our responsibility just by blaming upon the youths? Is it the failure only of the government? Is it only SA suffering by HIV/AIDS? What's the duty that the religious leaders should take very earnestly? What should the social workers do collectively? Can we leave these youngsters and children helpless just to await death? What do they really need? The spiritual awareness or moral classes? Financial support or physical comfort? The training of life or the opportunity of living? A sustainable and just society? Or, what else?
MY FRIENDS, LET'S THINK IN TIME NOT ONLY FOR SOUTH AFRICA BUT FOR OUR FUTURE, FOR OUR NEW HUMAN GENERATION, FOR OUR PLANET AND VERY ESPECIALLY FOR OUR TRUE DHARMA. CAN WE CLOSE OUR EYES AND LET PEOPLE DIE SO MISERABLY???
What terrifies me a lot these days is that may be Nepal is also going to face almost the same type of problem. May be in a small scale now, but there is a fear that the spark of this fatal disease has already lit which seems to be gutting the Nepalese society at an alarming rate. As we know that a small spark can destroy the entire forest in case the preventive measures are not taken cautiously and timely. Nepal is a very tiny Himalayan country with fascinating nature and soul touching culture which has to be protected for its own new generation and for those good people of the world who unconditionally love Nepal and want to experience her spiritual gorgeousness and flavor.
As I'm writing this, I'm missing the tiny pure eyes of the children who even don't know that they are here only for a few years more. No more years to laugh. So please let's listen the call of time and work hand-in-hand. Let's walk together for a healthy human society; let's create a friendly society – the society filled with love, trust and respect for each other. Never think that you are safe while the next house is burning. It may turn towards you at any time. SO ARISE, AWAKE, STOP NOT TILL THE GOAL IS REACHED.

Dear Dr. Yogi;
Namaste to you. God bless. Welcome back. You were sorely missed while you were away.
Your story is very interesting and also so so sad. It is just terrible to hear how the poor people of South Africa are suffering such awful torment at the hands of a disease which seems incurable. Is treatment available from the medical authorities? What is the current state of affairs in that area? I mean in terms of hospitals and community health programs. I am curious to learn more about that aspect of it, i.e. the country's institutions which are now established as a regular practice, I assume.
Of course we know that God has a plan and that man has a reason and a purpose and suffering is not without redeeming qualities to the soul of the individual and that dignity does not need to be compromised because one suffers and perhaps has died the way an AIDS victim happens to. WE might not all fully understand this but, perhaps you understand what I am trying to say here.
I have been very fortunate. Thankfully, through contacts which were initially inspired as a result of my connection to Heavenletters I managed to contact The Love Foundation and I, Johnny, am now the Chief Coordinator of the Mental Health Advocacy Council. With my enthusiasm, experience, knowledge, background, and expertise in the field I am the man for the job. The work is volunteer and I welcome questions. We promote "unconditional love" as a means to achieve the aim of empowering mental patients to advocate for themselves. Goal number one is to set up our Web Site.
Each person must do what they can do nowadays to help themselves and at the same time contribute to the community in general. What specifically one does, what 'level' of society one find oneself at is in actuality of no importance to the real self, because God takes notice of what is in one's heart; their intentions and how much they love.
Peace, my friend.

And I am, as always, so appreciative of C.M. Yogi’s posts as I am of everyone’s.
God bless you.

Dear Gloria ji and John ji
Namaste
First of all, thank you so much for your emails, it's always an encouragement..... so you people have read the report of my tour of South Africa . actually i have to do many more things back in Nepal as well because the circumstances are almost same in Nepal, so quite busy again.
i think you might know that now Nepal is going through the most destructive time of the history as the EGO of the king, political leaders and Maoist people have paralyzed the entire country.
i could see your deep concern also about HIV/AIDS, the situation is quite miserable.... but as you say the solution is - Educate, Educate, Educate! so let's pray, let's walk ....
The goverment and the medical authorities of SA is doing it's best, the budget for HIV/AIDS prevention and care is 1 billion US dollars, i think. But the problem is just like fire in the jungle. It's good to know about the Mental Health Advocacy Council, so if you want to do any good thing for SA that i can make a contact for you or if you want to do something for Nepal then i can plan for you.
Well, rest is fine here, all the teachers and students are fine, pls pass on my namaste to your good friends and family members .pls keep in touch . SMILE !!!!

Namaste, C.M. Yogi
I hold you and your country in my heart in these turbulent times. And I would like to quote these words from the Messages of God through Circle of Light (www.circleoflight.net):
It is a new phase of living the Vertical life in every area with diligence and joy, while you walk forth into the world in open-hearted service – seeing only the perfection of Love I Am, we are. Seeing only My heart in each precious person. Seeing only the streams of conscious Love that are every life expressing, and then trusting that these things you see will then manifest through your heart in the symbols of the world.
So rather than seeing lack or pain or problems, beloved ones, I ask you to see only the truth of each being, that they too are connected vertically forever and by your awareness, you are affirming it for each of them always, forever. This is a fundamental shift that will be unfolding in new ways. Just make a new commitment to seeing only the Real, speak only the Real. You could even think of the three monkeys, seeing only the Real, speaking only the Real, hearing only the Real about every precious one.
So, this is what I propose, beloved ones -- a minimum two week fast from speaking to each other about anyone’s illusions, even those who contact you for help. What I am doing here is breaking old habit patterns of the mind.
See only the Real, only Love - hear only the Real, only Love - speak only the Real, only Love.
Holding you in Love,
Paula

Dear Paula ji
Namaste.
Thank you SOOOO much for your positive words, the words from heart are always like prayers for me.
i'm sorry tot ell you that the situation of Nepal is getting worse day by day. The American embassy has recently announced it's citizen to leave Nepal if they want. likewise, it has stopped now issuing the visa for Nepalese going to USA for any reason. It means that now Nepal is not a safe country... !!!
i'm trying my best to continue my selfless service , my work is like my worship, i get up everyday with a hope and zeal to serve the society. i actually live only for the society, for the betterment of humanity because for me God is in every being, so serving my fellows means serving Him. But when i see that people are fighting and killing each other, and the economy of the country is getting collapsed... then i ask myself what have i done for the society ? where is my contribution to awaken my friends and save many innocent people's life ???
The political parties raise the voice for Democracy... the King also speaks about the Democracy... even the Maoist also speaks the same word - Democracy !!! what a terrible confusion in the name of democracy ??? what it is actually ? is it only game of getting the power ? is it only EGO to become HERO in front of others or it is only a revenge , hatred , jealous , prejudice ... i feel so ashamed that we have not understood , practiced and realized the values of democracy , it's actually values, a way of living but now it seems only POWER.... So far i have understood Dharma itself Democracy... betterment of all, happiness of all, love & respect for all and creating a Heaven for all. But now .... !!!
Well friends, i need to keep on walking..... and your prayers will encourage me to walk till the end of my last breath also.
May God bless all.

Only Love is Real
Dear C.M. Yogi, Namaste
I've seen the news from your country on TV and I keep you and your country in my heart. Please, consider that all that is happening is not REAL, only LOVE is real and we must stay steadfast in it.
I think there is even in your religion a goddess of destruction (I don't remember her name), but I think she's now doing her work in your country, because the old must be destroyed before something new can be born. Keep your God Flame burning and be sure that from the ashes a new harmonious real democracy will be born. Your light is very important in this moment! Keep it positive.
See only the REAL.

This is so beautiful, Paula, the love you engender in your response to our beloved friend, C.M. Yogi.
Thank God C.M. Yogi is in Nepal. With every word, thought and deed of his, he is engendering God’s love.
When I read C.M. Yogi’s posting, I am grieved to read of dissonance in such a beautiful spiritual land. I do not understand how it can be. It is unbelievable. God tells us that anything that isn’t love is not true. And so, the dissonance is truly unbelievable and not to be believed.
Underneath and above the troubles of the world lies the beating heart of God. It beats in your heart, beloved Yogi-ji. What a representative of God you are. You are one who cares and who spreads God’s love out to the suffering world. It is through love that problems are solved. And so you are a great warrior for peace, Yogi-ji, on the silent levels that count. Keep looking up, dear friend.
May peace ascend to your beautiful country high in the mountains. Every one of us is responsible for Nepal’s well-being. And my we all contribute to peace and harmony now.
With love and blessings,
Gloria

cm yogi ji,
A time of intense turmoil. Paula's insight that the
Goddess Kali is destroying things in order to make
room for new creation is the same as my own perception
of what is happening right now. Christian imagery
speaks of the end-times in negative tones only;
apocalypse and armegeddon. But there is a positive
side to all of this. Like Paula said the world as we
know it requires cleansing, a process that we see as
destructive. Washing a dog is destructive from the
perspective of the fleas that live on that dog.
From my work with astrological ages we are in the
climax period of the end-times. Devastating climate
changes are part of the same process that affects
social and political groups. We are on the verge of
creating a totally new kind of earth experience, one
where fighting and power struggles will no longer be a
part of human awareness. It will be a golden age of
enlightenment. For that to happen much has to be
brought to the surface and let go of in a seemingly
chaotic display of human suffering and greed. One way
to see this is from the perspective of the new science
of Chaos theory, also called Complexity theory.
A stable system remains stable all the while small
changes in that system create small pressures that
slowly build up. At some point all the small changes
create an overload and the system slips into a period
of chaos. While this seems destructive small seeds of
a new harmony and stability are born that grow to a
point where the period of chaos then stops. These
seeds then flourish to create a new stability that is
actually of a higher order than what existed before.
We are in just such a period of chaos, an end-time.
Out od this will naturally grow a golden age of new
and loving achievement. Being a conduit of love at a
time like this is a very sacred duty. Do not ever
despair over what you see in front of you. As Paula
said, it is not real. It is the illusion of
destruction. The reality is that humanity is playing
out a final drama of love and compassion, clearing the
heart of old ways of thinking so that your seed of
love and compassion can find new soil there.
This prosess will take as long as it takes. We cannot
give up just because time wants to take the extra time
to do a deep cleaning. The more we see through the
rose colored glasses of love then the more effect that
we have on those around us.
Love and Blessings, as Gloria likes to say,
Robert
How to End All Wars
I have figured out how to end war, all wars, once and for all. This is guaranteed to succeed. The only thing is, we have to persuade the world to do it.
Instead of war -- a cooking contest!
Focusing on the Middle East right now, American, Afghani, Iraqi, Irani, and Israeli mothers and wives – not professional chefs -- would cook their native foods. Delicious rice and vegetable dishes, Southern fried chicken, homemade breads, incomparable desserts, cooked and served along with native wines. All guns would be put down. Instead of a negotiating table, everyone would sit down at a dining table. Toasts would be made.
Banners would be strewn across the world, and headlines would read: “May the best food win!”
The food would be judged on appearance, aroma, and taste. All would start equal.
A secret weapon might be a pinch of saffron, or a tablespoon of coffee, and the whole recipe not revealed, but there would be no committees to investigate. The food would be the thing.
Instead of a cry for more weapons or fewer weapons, the cry would be, “More food, please. Another slice of this, a morsel of that.”
I happen to prefer wonderful homemade ethnic food, so I am inclined to think that the U.S. might not win the cooking contest.
But, of course, at the end of the cooking war, no one would care who won! Everyone’s stomach would be full, and everyone would have broken bread together, and countries woven together like challah.

Hi Gloria,
Wonderful suggestion. When I was married we had a
cheesecake contest once with all our neighbors, each
professing the most delicious recipe. I don't remember
of someone actually was declared the winner. All I
remember is that they were ALL very good.
Yummy,
Robert

Hi Gloria ji, Robert ji, Paula ji, John ji
Namaste.
Hope you all don't mind replying you all in one email like this .
Friends, Your words are soooooo powerful for me and i have been talking to
my friends about it and also have been using it as references in my various
talks regularly... In fact, the positive words are source of inspiration for
all of us, nothing is more important than true words of spirituality which
are expressed by people like you who have understood and practiced the
words of wisdom themselves, thankssssssssss
You know, the HVP schools supposed to reopen from last Monday but the
political situation hasn't become better.... the future of innocent
children is affected very badly by this political turmoil.... So sad !!! We
are doing the programs ( regular Satsang etc ) in the Ashram and continuing
the
program for kids as well - Seeds Of Peace etc but i question myself time to
time
that how much i have become able to water to control fire ?
Yes, Paula ji, as you say - See only the Real, only Love - hear only the
Real, only Love
- speak only the Real, only Love....' i need to be in deep love to create
love for all.
Yes, Robert ji , you are right - The reality is that humanity is playing out
a final drama of
love and compassion, clearing the heart of old ways of thinking so that
your seed of
love and compassion can find new soil there." i'm trying my best to plant
the seeds of
love, peace and service... but to be honest, it's such a long way,
especially in a poor
country it's truly a longest way, however, we need to keep on walking......
Dear Freinds , thanks once again for yur prayers... true prayers of true
people will make
some change that i hope. Namaste.

Hi cmyogi ji,
It is easy for us to give you these directions while
we are not immersed in the struggle that confronts
you. And I am happy that you take so much strength
from them. I will add my prayers to yours for the
safety and education of the children in your care.
It seems that the sttruggle right now between good and
evil is really between the Love that is real versus
the fear that we have all come to feel is too real.
The only weapon that works against fear is love. And
one of the counter weapons that fear uses is the
emotion of despair that comes from feeling that we
cannot win out. See yourself as a warrior of the
heart, wielding the mighty Sword of Love. We all have
chosen the battles that we find ourselves in and we
have chosen these battles because somewhere deep
inside we come armed with the ability to win these
fights. Can we love during long periods of oppression?
My prayers of love go with you,
Robert

LETTER FROM C.M. YOGI
Dear Gloria ji, Robert ji, John ji and all other good friends Namaste from Nepal.
Friends, we are trying our best to hold our inner personality and spiritual vision..... but you know sometime it's quite challenging to control your self , when you see that the things are going on just opposite... especially when you know that your path is reforming the society through the light of spirituality ... but you see that the light of spirituality is not enough...
so the people are killing each other, the leaders are leading the public to satisfy only their false EGO, the king is not sincere and bold enough to give up his power, a material and military power.
i know spirituality is the only solution for any kind of problem, but when the power is based on only the politics, dirty politics and all are forced to follow it, that is the time we feel helpless... As you know that Nepal is one of the very poor countries of the world, the per capita income is only 270 US dollars, many are leaving the country to get the job and so on.... in such a disappointing case when political leaders loose the vision and forget the Dharma then whole country suffers, the innocent people loose their life, and the poor people die by hunger, it's now so miserable...
However , i have again realized more deeply that still a long journey to go, our duty has become now more challenging.... still we need to have a GREAT SADHANA to enlighten the souls, awaken the minds, purify the hearts, change the attitudes and build up the confidence and HOPE...
Therefore, Gloria ji, your words are now healing for me ; i know it , i feel it but i need more prayers from good friends like you. John ji, thanks a lot for lovely words of JESUS "those who live by the sword will die by the sword.". Likewise, i would like to thank to Robert ji for his words of wisdom -- 'See yourself as a warrior of the heart, wielding the mighty Sword of Love.'.
My dear friends, thank you soooo much for your positive words... i know that my spiritual strength and faith on Him will never be weakened, especially these are the time when i feel more close to Him, suppose He is listening to me and walking with me .But i don't want to close my eyes and sit in meditation and enjoy talking spiritual philosophy... i want to save my country , i want to serve my fellows who are now dying unnecessarily...
Therefore, i need your divine prayers and your true love.... so i could keep this Heaven always as a small Heaven. Namaste.
Love+peace+service

What again is Sadhana?
Do you need to be in an Ashram to do it?
Is Sadhana a State of Consciousness?
I know that you feel great compassion, empathy, and sympathy for those sick, hungry, homeless, persecuted and dying people. I wish there was something I could do. The Spirit will lead us. Jesus Said; Ask, Knock and Seek. Those are the keys. The doors open. Th answers are found. The discovery is made.
Darkness and ignorance are the problems as I see them. I think that accepting false teachers who promise to heal without testing the waters and feeling grounded is plain wrong. Wrong. One must know for oneself what is what. Then deal with it. Deal with the situation.

For Heaven's Sake!
: Experience of South Africa
cmyogi, dear friend,
I know that it must be extremely frustrating for you
in times like these. I would like to give to you a
different perspective on history that illumines the
nature of the times we are all living through right
now. I have just published a book about a new model of
history based on astrological ages (western
astrological ages, not yugas) that is extremely
accurate covering the last 11,000 years. In the course
of my research I found the existence of an
astrological end-time cycle that is affecting us
today.
These ages contain smaller cycles within them with
time increments of 180 year and 15 year duration. At
this level I found that the last 2 centuries, the
Industrial Revolution and the genius of the 20th
Century were historical responses to the Aquarius Era
of the Age of Pisces. Since then the world has slipped
back into a muddy end-time world of Pisces dissolution
and Virgo-opposite disintegration and extinction. This
Pisces-Virgo astrological axis works as an end-time
period where the illusion of the world and culture is
dissolved and washed away in order to clear the table
for the creation of new energies. With these smaller
time periods I can accurately date the emergence of
the Age of Aquarius, the New Age or Age of
Enlightenment, at close to 2160, still 150 years in
our future.
The political violence that you are confronted with is
a part of this struggle, a struggle that includes the
dramatic and violent weather changes that are
affecting the rest of the world. Volcanic and
earthquake activity is 100 times greater than it was
in 1970. Viscious sandstorms in China. The immanent
shutdown of the North Atlantic Current or Conveyor
promises a return to an ice age in the very near
future. The rate of species extinctions today
indicates that we are on the verge of a possible Sixth
Big Extinction of close to all life on earth.
What lies ahead is the golden Age of Aquarius, and all
religions tell us that spiritual practice is the ONLY
way to survive into that future. Meditation is the
most positive expression of Pisces-Virgo energies.
Pulling back within the heart and expressing love to
its fullest out into the world is the most powerful
way to express the fact that Venus, the planet of
love, is exalted in Pisces. It has its highest and
most powerful expression here. Meditation is the
process of using a powerful Virgo mental technique to
dissolve the mental illusion and delusion that is a
negative Pisces quality, revealing positive Pisces
spirituality at the core of creation.
As the world dissolves it can either be a violent
descent into chaos, or a controlled descent with
violence kept to a minimum. These changes must occur
and from the foundation of meditation we remain on
solid ground while all around us dissolves. This must
be done because we are in the process of creating
something new, a world of light where our physical
bodies will become translucent, expressing only love
and compassion. Many of us have deep karmic residue
that needs to be burned off at this time. Maoist
rebels could be among them. Others of us are here to
help birth this new age into reality. Not an easy job.
So difficult that this is the War between Good and
Evil that religions speak of. Good is the world of
light coming into being and evil is the old paradigm
that is based in solid physicality and lesser
emotions.
The Chinese overran Tibet, an evil, that forced Tibet
to open up to the world, spreading her spiritual
teachings to a hungry West, a good. Perhaps this was
supposed to happen in order to help heal the world.
My prayers go with you my brother,
Robert

Dear C.M. Yogi,
I hope these words from the Guardians can comfort you: You can find the whole article at:
http://www3.telus.net/theguardians/l_gm_0042206.html
What you are really witnessing is the "Changing of the Guard", the "Reawakening" of many and the "Fear" based clinging to old energy and old ideas. Some sense the coming change (the new energy) on a subconscious or even conscious level and refuse to relinquish their "Power and Control over others."
This is absolute and dramatic proof that the Shift in Consciousness is in full swing! Whenever the energies of a society shift to a higher level there is always a strong resurgence of the old, negative energies as they battle to maintain the status quo. It is as you would say, "a last ditch effort" to maintain power and control over others, to keep society from learning the truth, and block the influx of the new energy Unity Consciousness from entering your world.
What is truly ironic is that the very people who are fighting so hard to maintain the old energy know, at least on a subconscious level, that it is impossible!
The most profound reality is that even some of those who used to be steeped in the old energy are now "reawakening" to the new and no longer are willing to be part of the "Great Deception". For these reasons you will see many people coming and going from your governments, as those who are no longer willing to be part of the old "power and control model" leave government and brave new souls who wish real change enter the game of politics. Unfortunately, this will also attract some others who are in fear of loosing there power into politics as well.
Take heart Dear Ones, there is a very bright light in all this turmoil. ..
Paula

Subject: Some Good News!
Dear All,
Namaste!
We are extremely happy to share some good news with you, finally. The king has returned people's right, which was taken away by kings direct rule, by reinstating house of parliament after 4 years!
We are sure must of you are aware of the ongoing political development in Nepal, still let us give some background of the current happening.
Some three weeks ago seven political parties, the main political forces in Nepal, started peaceful street protest and called nationwide strike against king’s rule and they have peaceful support of maoist as well. The king led government responded with curfew and suppression of demonstration, killing of demonstrator- some 15 people have died so far and thousands of other were injured. The people were so courageous that even at the time of curfew, security force can shoot at the people on sight during the curfew, hundreds of thousands people took to the street in Kathmandu and all over the country.
The king bent by people's power invited seven political parties three days before to name prime minister and form government under this. But the political parties rejected it saying that this could not address their demand and address the maoist problem. Despite of the fact that the international community had welcomed king’s move, the parties decided to continue their struggle, which of course had left some worries on people that if the king do not hie to peoples’ demand and use excessive force to quell the movement the coutry could face towards the civil war.
BUT to every one's joy king announced reinstatement of house of parliament last night! This has opened door for new possibilities and this new governement which had signed 12 point pacts with maoist earlier shall be able for peaceful settlement to the moist problem. The official reaction of maoist has not come yet, but it is understood tht they are positive to this new development. Providing they were genuenly serious to the 12 point agreement they had signed with parties while they were fighting together against the direct rule of king the chance of permanent peace is very high.
The first house is sheduled on 28th of April. The house is expected to form an all party government, which will hold dialogue with maoist and bring them into a peaceful political process, and then the process for constituent assembly election will begun, this is one of the main demand maosit has put forward. This assembly will also decide the fate of monarchy along with taking many other important decisions.
So this has given all of us a new hope. After almost 12 years of conflict we are dreaming for a new morning with better hope and light in life. We take this opportunity to thank you all so much for praying for us and for all the valuable support you have extended to our family and the nation through out this period. We are so sorry we could not write an individul email and have not replied directly to those who have writtento us recently. But we just want to let you all know that we are safe and happy. With the mercy of almighty God and prayer from all our good friends let’s hope we will be able to see complete peace in this country soon. Please keep praying for us, the love and support of friends keeps even more value at the time of difficulties.
Thank you so much once again for all your love and support
With very best wishes and love
Om, Priti and family
A MESSAGE FROM C.M. YOGI
My dear friends
Namaste
i'm so thankful to you all for your very POSITIVE words which are full of wisdom and compassion....
Now the things are changing in Nepal, seems that it will go on positive direction... let's pray... at least i'm satisfied that the murder and violence of day to day life is stopped now , at least the poor will go to their work and feed their children at night and the children will go to school with a smile and hope... ; likewise, now the roads will be free for the vehilcles , no more burning tires with terrible smell... now the nights would be calmer, no more horrifying sounds of bombs...,now the youths will work in the fields & factories ... no more terrifying protest on the roads with heart breaking slogans....
How sad it is that every time in the name of political change only the poor people suffer, the children and mothers are harmed, the youths are used just like tools . However, now the time is turning towards a positive direction...., i want to see people happy... satisfied... working hard..., living together..., walking together , appreciating all... and praying God as the Upanishad say - " Saha Nau Awatu, Saha Nau Bhunaktu...."
My dear friends, i'm so thankful that you kept me in your thoughts and in prayers , actually we are blessed by having true friends like you all. i have forwarded your emails to many of my friends. in fact, when we feel each other deeply and pray for each other heartily the Heaven appears itself, thanks a lot.
Once again, i want to thank to Robert ji, John ji, Paula ji and all other good friends , all are source of inspiration for me. there are many people in this world talking about the spirituality and philosophy but i think only few are lucky who live with spiritual philosophy , live in Heaven and create Heaven, so thank you SO MUCH.
Love+Peace+Service
