March 28th Homa

This morning the mathavasi began their new phase. As usual we held our weekly homa. This will be a six day phase and includes several important events. Monks and local church members will be attending a short puja on Sun 3 in celebration of Yogaswami's Mahasamadhi. That same day begins Sadhu Paksha, a several week retreat for the entire monastery. During this time the monastics break their early morning routine and instead wonder and meditate in the sacred gardens. It is also a time free from tour days and in general, restrictive of excessive outside guests. On Sun 6 the monks will observe Guruthondu Day, banding together to make progress on a single project of the guru's choosing. And lastly, during the coming retreat, we observe a padapuja to Gurudeva during the chitra nakshatra. All in all it is a busy but blessed week. Aum Namah Sivaya.

"Life is a series of experiences, one after another. Each experience can be looked at as a classroom in the big university of life if we only approach it that way. Who is going to these classrooms? Who is the member of this university of life? It's not your instinctive mind. It's not your intellectual mind. It's the body of your soul, your superconscious self, that wonderful body of light. It's maturing under the stress and strain, as the intellect gives back its power to the soul, as the instinct gives back its power to the soul, as the physical elements give back their power to the soul, and all merge into a beautiful oneness." Gurudeva
