Sister Vaishali of San Francisco Hoists Shiv Baba's Flag in Antarctica

31 March 2022

San Francisco (USA): BK Sister Vaishali from San Francisco made history by unfurling Shiv Baba's flag for this first time on the Earth's seventh and southmost continent, Antarctica.

She took off her coat, braving the snow, ice, and wind-chill to mark the event wearing the traditional, white BK sari - emblem of peace and purity.

According to Wikipedia, Antarctica is a polar desert with little precipitation and extreme sub-zero temperatures. In summer, temperatures rise to an average high of 10°C ( 50°F). The only humans living there are 5,000 people who reside at research stations during the summer months. During the winter this figure drops to around 1,000. The main inhabitants are the penguins. Recalling her once-in-a-lifetime experience, BK Vaishali shared how Baba helped her throughout the journey, and she was able to complete her mission. “Landing on the continent, where no humans reside, and being around marine animals was a magical experience in itself,” she said.

 

Sister Vaishali covered 21 islands of the continent on her 19-day long trip. With her on this expedition were 140 adventurers from 29 countries. “They were curious about what I wore and what I ate,” Vaishali mentioned. “They taught me environmental awareness, and in return, I shared the importance of spiritual awareness and meditation with them.” Now Baba's vibration and message truly has gone to every corner of the planet.

Here is a snippet [30 seconds] of Vaishali's message to the world, just to give you a taste of the experience.

Two Madhuban Experience Retreats Have Been Scheduled at Peace Village

18 March 2022

Om Shanti filled with Remembrance of the One, Protector of Hearts,

We are so happy to announce that Peace Village is awaiting your return to this oasis that Baba has created for His children. The vibrations of Peace Village have changed over the past year having had only Brahmins here and then the other specialness of being able to ‘ Live in Nature’ for a few days, moving all to the splendor of nurturing the outside and inside of souls. As Spring is right around the corner, it’s time for us to spring ourselves into gear and enjoy the best that Baba has to offer, a holy place where BK’s and/or BK families can meet, greet, and enjoy together in complete safety.

 
 Two Madhuban Experience Retreats retreats have been scheduled and here are the guidelines as to who can attend:
  • NOCHILDREN FOR THIS ONE ......apologies
  • We  encourage the firm BKs for both these retreats (old and new) - there will be other chances for the ones not following principles fully
  • Those attending the full retreat will be given preference.
  • For our convenience and that of the centers, we will split the weekends as follows  (allowing for few exceptions) with the following quotas:
FIRST GROUP
Arrival Friday, April 22nd, after 4:00 PM
Four days of the Madhuban Experience, Saturday-Tuesday
Departure Day, after breakfast, Wednesday, 27th
Quotas:
  • Toronto - 30
  • NJ (Edison & Cinnaminson) - 30
  • CT - 15
  • Other states   USA  - 25
 
SECOND GROUP

WEBSITE TRAINING Commences on 12th March for Those Who Wish to be Website Developers for Baba

4 March 2022

Om shanti One and All,

 

This is an exciting time in the Yagya as we are challenged and ready to take a lead of a new way of revealing Baba to the world.  I, personally, am thrilled with the idea of having a prestigeous website that attracts the seeker and more.

 

Having said that, Br Santiago has arranged with br Nanda to do this TRAINING FOR WEBSITES which would include:

Design

Uploading

Maintenance

SEO  (Search Engine Optimization) 

 

This training will prepare you to create a websitemake changes after it has been designed and published, and teach you how to optimize it so search engines like Google will position the website high during public searches. What this means, search optimization will help to increase traffic to the website and do more service.

 

The training will help whomever is interested in doing this type of service. No technical background is needed. You will be taught everything from scratch to semi-professional level. You just need to commit to attending all of the sessions because each session builds on the previous one. This is a unique opportunity  to learn and improve our digital service.

 

Br Nanda is available to start the training on Saturday, March 12th at 5 PM (EST) and continue for a total of 10 weeks. 

 

The sessions would be about 1 1/2 hours to 2 hours per session (may vary). Br Nanda is requiring all those interested to ATTEND ALL SESSIONSBr Nanda is being very generous with his time, his expertise and this is a golden opportunity for those that want to move forward and upward.  I feel that in the training all will find their special role in the scheme of things.

 

If you or anyone at your center would like to attend please contact Br Santiago at………shantipyar@yahoo.com

 

Warmest Regards,

Dorothy bk and Br Santiago

MARGATE

February Month

With Baba’s inspiration, and as the nation is resuming normalcy with mandates being removed, we have begun our search for a new commercial space for service for the public as well as BK sustenance.


In the interim, we will transition into live in-person sessions by sharing commercial space with the Shiva Mandir – details are being finalized with the temple board members.

 

 

Broward County Library

Two other Libraries (Pompano Beach, and Fort Lauderdale) will be scheduled for Meditation sessions in the coming months. Coral Springs and Coconut Creek library will also schedule live sessions later in the year. These sessions will be live, in-person sessions – the first for the year. The general theme of “Being at Peace in Chaotic Times” (Picture above)

 

Wellness sessions

The wellness sessions have resumed. Will plan programs as required by groups.
