Radiating Enlightenment Process (REP)

Sept. 5th,2010; 7:00pm (Bidadi)

Just came out of another sitting with the Master (ashramites meeting). More and more I am realizing why living around the Master is emphasized so much. For me living around the Master is like life with 'Zen Stick'. Constantly He burns the ignorance in us. Even better for the people who work closely with Him. Consciously or unconsciously we will imbibe His enlightened and graceful verbal and body language. He will penetrate us. Without His physical presence we may learn the techniques for life solutions and growth. In His presence it's constant breakthrough in our awareness.

Actually, Swamiji just put ashramites in Radiate Enlightenment Process (REP). Yogic body, Vedic mind and Zen Living. Yesterday afternoon, Swami called all the ashramites to be out of Living Enlightenment Process. I was so happy because I was not interested in levitating or floating above the water and so on.

Now, He has put us in REP. It's living quality. It's amazing. I tend to share my passion being around the physical presence of the Master. Many times, many people misinterpret my sharing about this in their own ways. Just now, it was clear to me, when we are in the presence of the Master, there is no room to escape. In the Living Space of the Master, He penetrates into our consciousness all the time. And when we practice His teachings, His community (sangga) will support and help us towards Master's teaching. It's not the same when we are in the society when majority of them are not aware of it.

Another sweet experience today for me was 'the smell of Master's presence'. Yesterday, I happened to be in the LA e-Kalpataru in Bidadi (from the Master's end). Today I had a chance to speak to Ma Mahati in LA. She said she asked Swamiji for help in the kitchen. Swami replied "I will help you in the kitchen. You see, you will smell my presence. The smell around me when I give energy darshan". I had no clue His presence has particular smell. I was wondering what smell is that! But today I experienced it. After the meeting, Swami passed by me, such a sweet smell. My god....now, I know what He meant.

Let's not judge the Master's action with our perception / senses. Even people around us we always make wrong judgement, what more judging the Living Enlightened Master, not to mention the Incarnation. mmm....are we going to use our senses to judge them and make the mistake again and again....? Let's help each other to grow not the other way....

Ashramites Meeting with Swamiji

Monday, Sept. 6,2010 (Bidadi)

Today is my first time attending ashramites meeting in Bidadi with Swamiji. He was very casual and funny. We all know how spontaneous He can be. He was emphasizing on healthy body and spiritual sadhanas for the ashramites. It appears to me as though He was playing the role of a Father. Checking with all His children how are we doing? Anything that He needs to know. Anything that we need His help. Solving and addressing our issues. Then He was giving us specific guidance for better quality of life in a very casual way.

Other than that Swami was stressing the importance of healthy yogic body. He was teasing Indian women by the time we are fourty we become like patti (grandmother). It was hilarious the way He said it. God...we had so much fun in the meeting.

I really feel so grateful to be trained by a Paramahamsa in the name called ashramites. It's amazing to see how much He is putting His time and energy to give us clarity and awareness. It's really great!

Yoga is efficiency in action!
