You should Find out what do We mean by this title: A Day of Amazing Experiences from Wellbeing to Ethereal

Quoting from Shri Mataji – the founder of Sahaja Yoga Meditation:

“So the best thing is to get the experience and the light and then see for yourself. All of you have this possibility.” 

On This Day our Cultivators of Joy were invited to participate and Bring their Wellness expertise all over Burlington to two of its popular annual Outdoors Community Events

Our Sahaja Yoga Meditation Network of volunteers based in Halton region for the last twenty years in Burlington and nineteen years in Oakville – is always eager to help and actively be involved in any community related activities.

This year on Saturday, September 13 we were invited to be at the same time in two different places for two community events.

One of them was the Orchard Picnic where we traditionally go every year. The second one was a first for us: we were invited to the Community BBQ in an area of Burlington that we supported for many years with free wellness (meditation and yoga) programs offered at the Hayden Secondary school, or at the local library as well in the parks around. So, we had to say Yes!

We want to be aware of our subtle experiences that happen within us, such as the awakening of the Kundalini energy; as well of our connection with the whole wide world, that is always only at a glance distance.

That’s what we share and prove in this article.

Let’s learn about Paramchaitanya and ponder the Unawareness versus Awareness

“Why we are lost ..it is because of our own unawareness! This awareness has to come: that we are part and parcel of that Paramchaitanya. The whole thing is called as ChittaVilasa.. is the playful enjoyment of God’s Attention“.

The above is a quote from Shri Mataji – the founder of Sahaja Yoga Meditation – August 1989 in Switzerland

Understand the energy Kundalini rising through people can be felt and seen

Another quote from Shri Mataji’s explanations about the science of Kundalini energy rising

through Sahaja Yoga Meditation:

“You can see with your naked eyes the pulsation of this Kundalini when Sahaja Yoga takes place.

The awakening of the Kundalini also you can see as the rising of the energy you can see it.”

Join into this Story of Connection transcending time and space with Indigenous Messenger in Croatia

Did you know that the Founder of Burlington was a Mohawk Leader belonging to the Wolf clan?

Please, take an attentive look at the photo above?

Maybe you’ll see sketched in the Ether the detailed profile of a North-American Indigenous Man on the left side and on the right the profile of a Wolf?

That is what I saw on the sky while I was swimming in the Adriatic Sea while talking to the Creator about the beautiful wellness activities happening at the same time in Burlington Canada, involving simple meditation with the Earth’s intelligent energy being awakened within people and leading them to a 1:1 connection to the all pervading energy of life, and maybe to its Creator too :-). My words simply cannot describe the feeling witnessed outside and withing me: seeing (!!) how the Creator is responding to your own silent plea, in seconds, using the Sky for a what’sup display in which the emojis, are literally covering the sky and touching the earth in the same time?! I know my attempts of sharing are pale in comparison with my vivid out-of-this-world yet made-of-and-in-this-world experience. It is a gift that I have not fully processed it yet!!

We are returning to a Personal Experience of Connection that can manifest Extra-ordinarily

The image came just in a few seconds since I started my conversation with the One that connects us all, and the response came swiftly, covering the sky above me, I was swimming far away from the beach and somehow I felt that the Indigenous man’s lips were ready to speak softly in my ear: ‘ I am the messenger, your prayer was heard and answered”.

I don’t know if you ever experienced an image being loud and clear, but that’s what I felt, as I was within the soft embrace of the Water element and the indescribable clarity of the design projected by the Creator on the ethereal canvas.

In fact, I am sharing below the exact place where I was swimming and connecting with the all pervading energy.

We all know, how the clouds dissipate quickly, especially when it’s about a very elaborated design by The Artist; with this one, I felt the Messenger became itself a Message that must be shared; as I was away from the beach I rushed to get out through the rocks on the side, then rushed up to the top of the hill without even daring to look at the Sky, yet talking to Him …”You are important not only for me, please wait for me, allow me to share you with my friends, they are Cultivators of Joy from the Lands that worshipped Mother Earth and Father Sky … it’s no longer personal”. I had to run along the spine of the cliff, until I found the steps leading downwards towards the beach where I had my phone, resting from his busy daily/nightly job.

Only with my phone in my hands I had the courage to look up to the Sky again: the Messenger from the Ancestors of the North-American people was there, waiting for me, his Wolf was sent home into the past, yet he remained calm and detached with all his features intact, I could even see his face decorations and again I felt him being the closest being to me in that space.

I thanked him, for his acknowledgement that I truly respect the roots of that land and we, as sahaja yogis, we move with the essence of all natural elements, that become our Reality and that Param Chaitanya can manifest for us anywhere, everywhere and always at the right time.

More photos that you can explore and realize the amazing artistry of portraying such images

Let’s ponder for a bit these words from Shri Mataji’s Public Program at the Carrs Lane Church Centre, Birmingham, UK on August 8, 1980 to understand it better:

“But see in Nature, see Everywhere – the living work of God is so evident.

What a tremendous power is working it out.

After all, you have become a human being from amoeba. How have you become?

There must be some tremendous power that has done this. And what is that power? That is what we have to become.“

At the same time in Burlington, Canada, its residents were discovering the Sahaj Meditation as was offered by our wonderful friends: the Cultivators of Joy!

It gave me so much joy to have access through the Ether element to all the cool details of how our friends that volunteer with Sahaja Yoga Meditation Network were able to connect to so many people, especially with young people, families, elderly, from such a variety of backgrounds! That’s CANADA – such an amazing place to live, work, love and thrive as a human being.

It also touched my heart when I received the photos, to see the roses from our front yard providing their beauty and fragrance towards the success of our free meditation workshops at these two community events! 🙂

Make yourself a favor and WATCH and LISTEN Attentively the following video-clip!

Read the transcript of the Live Feedback captured from somebody that just tried our Meditation

“My experience with this kind of meditation is that it’s the first and the best.

I was able to connect to myself,

I was able o detach myself with the rest of the place

and connect to myself so that was amazing.

It was really relaxing, and healing.

I’m definitely going to come back.

I feel like I came to this place just for this.

I just sat down, and I’m connecting with the Planet Earth.“

One can also read the Subtitles in this video, truly a beautiful gem of a Feedback for our Meditation Workshops offered on that special Day! It mentions the Connection to Planet Earth and much more!

Before, you listened to an Adult Woman who felt “That’s why I came to this Festival!“
Let’s see what Teens have to Say about our Meditation?! How did THEY Feel after trying it?!

We received even written Feedback from some participants who meditated there with us at the BBQ Community Event or at the Orchard Picnic Fest:

A great experience, one someone should definitely try it!

Felt very relieved.

Felt very calming.

Such an amazing experience and very inspiring. 

London – Felt the power of meditation when the loud music in the background faded and I felt a true sense of calm.

Lorna – I felt the energy flowing through me.

Abby – I feel like a weight has lifted off my shoulders.

Anjali is one of our volunteer instructors with Halton Sahaja Yoga Meditation Network and she is seen in the Photos above, teaching simple earth meditation techniques to some of the Organizers and Volunteers with this wonderful Orchard Community Event in Burlington

In the photo above you can enjoy more Cultivators of Joy from Sahaja Yoga Meditation Network that were present that day to support the two community events in Burlington

Our teams were able to help each other; especially our yogi brothers were the one ones that did a “back and forth” between the two locations, and even though you see more “feminine faces” in this article there a perfect balance in the ying and yang energies emitted from our booth.

Our Yogis and Yoginis that conducted mini-meditation workshops were able to collect feedback from a variety of people, of various ages and backgrounds; what they ALL had in common: complete positivity; mission accomplished, everyone felt Better.

You might want to listen to Anjali’s Recollection of this Event – Enjoy!

Not Even Taylor Swift’s catchy music could not deter Teens from Meditating with our Cultivators of Joy from Sahaja Yoga Meditation Network

“We had two teams to have the two events.

This was my second time volunteering at the annual Orchard Community picnic and it brought back all the cheer and joy I experienced the first time last year.

So many children eager to meditate...lining up waiting for their turn to join the small meditation sessions in clusters with their friends and even strangers.

So many young ones that visited us last year remembered us and their  unique experience.

This time they came with new friends they wanted them to try.. even if their friends were not up for it, they insisted and had their friends join. 

The new friends, to their surprise felt it…they were astonished . .they actually felt it!!!

The energy within, the stillness, they were able to ignore the loud catchy music even if it was Taylor Swift playing!

They were able to maintain the peace after opening their eyes and clearly describe.

Some felt something but couldn’t describe it.. but they knew the ignition kicked off .. no doubts our tent was the busiest. 🙂

People of all ages meditated.

Some exhibited such gratitude- the elderly lady who did different meditations said with such sincerity looking into my eyes  completely moved from inside in a profound way “it was really good”. 

Each meditation was customized to suit the group based on ages that attended.

We even lead meditations in different languages for those that couldn’t follow in English.

So many young ones were so happy to see us. They gave us a big hug.

We had a few event organizers coming by and trying our meditation and their feedback was also very positive, one of them wrote us later that “It was magic!” and one made a comment on the spot how amazing it is that we could lead mediation through loud music and that they were surprised they could follow the meditation and feel the energy afterwards.”

Nice story from Elizabeth – who started joining our Oakville Sahaja Yoga Meditation classes last year and is now participating everywhere she can to our events across all Halton region:

Elizabeth – one of the newest Cultivators of Joy, helped with the henna designs and besides her feedback notes she also shared photos from the event enjoy a few here above and below!

“Colours of the Orchard Community picnic – the sky was clearing the interesting clouds as we packed to leave and a grasshopper even came to check us out!

Notice the sign behind Kathleen’s head “kindness is contagious!!!” (around the same time the sun was breaking through the clouds ..”

The Cultivators of Joy (just naming a few: Kathleen, Kruti, Isabelle, Karan, Shivangna, Elizabeth, Isabelle, Sarah, Anjali and others) were also harvesting the beautiful moments experienced there!

We conclude the notes about the first event and we’re sharing just a few photos and Feedback notes from the second one because that one had a different vibe, also positive but mostly there were some great stories and unexpected “Romanian connections” that require time and space to see where they take us but they are very promising that our Cultivators of Joy will get more “work” in the nearest future!

Let’s allow every seed to sprout and grow..

You can literally hear such an Amazing Feedback from the BBQ Community Event from a lady who joined the Mother Earth meditation when our team was trying to wrap-up, yet we had other groups still waiting for their opportunity to meditate with us! Enjoy the Photos!

It is always wonderful when the event organizers have a few moments to come by and chat with our team, here there is MPP Effie with Isabelle and Shivangna – our Cultivators of Joy!

Of course, families joined and tried our meditation workshops here too, young people and adults, from a variety of backgrounds. However, if you want to say good bye in the best possible manner to this article, close your eyes, and listen to this live feedback from somebody who did not even know what to expect from this event, who came by chance to out booth, took the only vacant seat that she felt was “ready” for her, and was able to have her “first and best experience with meditation”, as well was able to connect not only with oneself, but to planet Earth as well. Share her experience!

Our thanks go to the many dedicated community partners that organized these lovely events in Burlington and invited our Cultivators of Joy to be there!
