Eternally Inspiring Recollections of Our Divine Mother Sahaja Yogis Eternally Inspiring Recollections of our Divine Mother Sahaja Yogis’ stories of Her Holiness Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi Volume 4 1987 - 1989 This book is humbly dedicated to our Divine Mother, Her Holiness Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi that Your name may be ever more glorified, praised and worshipped Thank You, Shri Mataji, for the warmth and simplicity and all the many ways in which You showered Your love upon us. And thank You for the great play of Shri Mahamaya that helped seekers to love and trust You, often without yet understanding the Truth that You were and are. The heart of this book is to remind us of the magic of Sahaja Yoga. The spirit of this book is to help our brothers and sisters all over the world, and also in the future, to know a small part of the beauty and glory of You, Shri Mataji, as a loving, caring Mother whose wonderful power of divine love dispelled and continues to dispel all our uncertainties. Sift now through the words that we found when we tried to remember. What follows is our collective memory, our story together. We ask Your forgiveness if our memories are less than perfect, but our desire is to share with others the love that You gave us, as best we can. Acknowledgements The editor would like to humbly thank all the people who have made this book possible. First and foremost we bow to Her Holiness Shri Mataji, who is the source and fulfilment of all, and who graciously encouraged the collection of these stories.

We arrived quite late, tired and hot as usual from the long journey. I had a desire to take a photo of our Mother and saw an appropriate opportunity, as Mother was approaching us towards the house, I quickly went ahead of Her and crouching on the ground in the garden I took this photo. Shri Mataji at Mr Dhumal’s farm All the yogis gathered in a big makeshift tent with a podium set up for the music programme. At first we were all expecting to have dinner, at least our stomachs were telling us logically that we were hungry. Instead the concert started with Indian classical music. After several performances, we were offered green sprigs of channas or chickpeas. Eating them was like manna from heaven, we truly enjoyed the offering, with the hope that dinner will be served soon. The music just continued and went on for hours as our attention sometimes got lost in the thought of the dinner. Meanwhile the vibrations was working and balancing us, we started enjoying the music and completely forgot about time and our hunger. Our Mother accompanied us in the concert and was aware of everything and nothing escaped Her attention. After several hours the music stopped. ‘You have enjoyed the beautiful music, at first your attention was on the dinner, but the vibrations took your attention away from the food – now the dinner is waiting for you,’ Shri Mataji said. We all had a gratifying smile on our faces. Joaquin Orús Around the villages We were in a village in Maharashtra on one of the India tours in the mid 1980’s and the electricity broke down when Shri Mataji was about to give an introductory talk. She had some of the Sahaja Yogis sing Adi Ma and Jogawa, and then just asked the people to put their hands out and feel the cool breeze, which they did. Also, at that village where there was a procession with Shri Mataji on a bullock cart, and She later told us what the driver had said to Her. He spoke so eloquently about Her; it was like the devotional poetry of Kabir, even though he was a simple countryman. She also said he had been a great king in a past lifetime. About Paithan – a village which was originally called Pratishthan and had been the capital of the Shalivahanas’ kingdom – or Satavahanas as they were sometimes called - Shri Mataji’s ancestors. We went there once on the tour in 1987, and there were a lot of ruins and it was a very poor village now. Shri Mataji gave a talk, a public programme to the villagers. They did not even have electricity and someone fanned Her with a folded up newspaper, and after the programme we went and had tea in the headman’s house. Mother told us this instructive story about the sort of misunderstandings created by Westerners. There was a missionary who went to an Indian village. He told the villagers they were sinful and guilty, but they would be saved if they confessed their sins. When the missionary came to leave, the village headman said: ‘Thank you, sir, for telling us something we did not know. You have told us that we are guilty. We did not know that before.’ Linda Williams Pasta for everyone In January 1987 Shri Mataji invited 300 Western yogis from the India Tour to stay at Pratishthan. She graciously enquired what they would like for lunch. The Italians, who were rather homesick, promptly responded, ‘Pasta!’ There were only ten packets of pasta in the kitchen and each packet should serve about six people. Shri Mataji started cooking. Everyone had the pasta, and the Italians ate several helpings, yet there was enough left for another meal. Yogi Mahajan It was done by silence My husband and I went to India to look at textiles in Gujarat, not for Sahaja Yoga. When we got back to Delhi we found there was going to be Shivaratri Puja. Shri Mataji asked to see my husband and I went along with him, thinking I would sit outside and wait for him. However we both went in and sat with Mother and somebody had brought the kind of fabrics that we had been looking at in Gujarat. Mother described much more to us and taught us about the symbolism of the designs that these simple fabrics had. I found that relaxed me a lot, looking at something that I had already seen. It was amazing the way Mother worked on me because I was much too shy to say anything. She took Her shawl off and it was very, very soft. She said it was so soft that it would pass through my wedding ring and yet it was as warm as a blanket. ‘Feel it,’ She said. My husband and I held it. Then Shri Mataji held it and it was as if the silence was complete. I just felt as if Shri Mataji was saying, ‘I’ve got you.’ I remember this complete feeling of peace and thinking, ‘I wish everybody could feel this idea that we really are just held by Mother.’ She didn’t say anything to me. It was just done by silence and holding Her shawl. Rosemary Maitland Hume So tuned in In 1987, when we were staying with Shri Mataji at a Sahaja Yogi’s house on Prabhat Rd, Pune, a lady called Mrs Bhikule was there and she was so tuned in to Shri Mataji that she would suddenly wake up in the night. ‘Ji, Shri Mataji,’ she would say, and would go to Shri Mataji’s room. ‘I was just about to call you,’ Shri Mataji would smile and say. Deepa Mahajan A cautionary tale In the eighties, Shri Mataji came to live in Pune. ‘Shri Mataji now that You have come to live here all will be well with Pune,’ I said to Her. ‘No, it does not happen like that. In My presence all the bhuts come out,’ She replied. ‘Shri Mataji, You must come to my house and have food,’ a Sahaja Yogi from Delhi would ask Shri Mataji daily. She would avoid by making some excuse or the other. One day he insisted. ‘Shri Mataji my house will be blessed by Your coming,’ he said. ‘No son, it is not like that. Sometimes skeletons in the cupboard come tumbling out. You must be careful never to insist on My coming. If I want to I will come,’ She told him. This fact was confirmed when Shri Mataji came to Pune before Pratishthan was built and stayed at the house of a Sahaja Yogi. She could not sleep and was very uncomfortable for two days. On the third day She told us there was something there that was disturbing Her. She told us to look around. Then She pointed to a picture of Her on the wall and said that something was not right with it.

Katong/Joo Chiat has its beginnings in the early 19th Century where coconut plantations stretching from Geylang River to Siglap Road and humble attap-roofed kampung (villages) dotted the landscape. Up to the 1950s, the area was an idyllic seaside retreat for the wealthy. Joo Chiat Road was a simple dirt track running through the plantations from Geylang Serai to the sea in the 1920s. It was named after Chew Joo Chiat, a wealthy land-owner and philanthropist, who bought over large plots of land in Katong and was known as the “King of Katong”. In the 1920s and 1930s, many communities moved eastward out of the city centre to make Katong/Joo Chiat their home. This resulted in bungalows, shophouses and places of worship being built, a reflection of the multi- cultural and varied Katong/Joo Chiat community. The rebuilding of the nation after World War II and the independence of Singapore, transformed the façade of Katong/Joo Chiat. To retain its rich architecture and heritage, over 800 buildings in the area have been conserved.

  • (Group 7) Kwan Yam Theng Buddhist Temple App Profile ID: 108
    GES1005: Everyday Life of Chinese Singaporeans (Past and Present) Tutorial Group D13 (Group 7) Kwan Yam Theng Buddhist Temple App Profile ID: 108 Temple Visit Report Name Yong Lixian Marilyn Puah Jia Hui Chen Kuan-Yu Submission Date: 2 November 2017 Introduction Our group was tasked to visit Kwan Yam Theng Buddhist Temple (观音亭佛寺) located at 245 Alexandra Road, Singapore 159933, for our temple visit assignment. This report examines the origins of the building, the features of the temple externally and internally, the traditions and customs practiced by the devotees, the unique characteristics or practices of the temple and also an introduction of the different gods that can be found within the temple. History and Background The site where Kwan Yam Theng Buddhist Temple currently resides has always been a place for religious practices. Since the location is a freehold property, there is no time limit to the owner’s period of ownership. The first religious building at this location in Alexandra Road originates in 1933, in which religious leaders and followers practiced their faiths in the one-storey temple (name of this temple is unknown). However, the temple faced many problems due to its architecture. Flooding was not uncommon when it was raining heavily. The temple was to be home to faithful Buddhists and inquisitive visitors all the way until 1994, when the religious building was to be rebuilt. The master is 96 years old and is bedridden (refer to Appendix A). He currently resides in the temple along with a female monk who is the sole caretaker of the building, carrying out religious ceremonies, administrative and operational matters of the temple.

  • The Cultural Characteristics in China's Official Online Tourism
    The Cultural Characteristics in China's Official Online Tourism Advertisements Two-year Master’s Thesis submitted to the Department of Informatics and Media, Uppsala University, May 2012, for obtaining the Two-year Master’s Degree of Social Science in the field of Media and Communication Studies Candidate: Chun Bi Supervisor: Lowe Hedman 1 Abstract Tourism advertising is an important approach in providing information about tourism destinations and in attracting potential customers, and in this process, particular cultural factors are usually conveyed. In this thesis, the main intention was to describe the cultural factors reflected in advertising and discover the role that Chinese cultural identity plays in China’s official Internet tourism advertisements to overseas markets using a theoretical framework of diverse cultural issues. The objects of this study are the official tourism advertisements from China National Tourist Office’s (CNTO) websites. The author researched Chinese cultural characteristics and tried to connect them with the expressional tendencies in tourism advertisements. Using a quantitative content analysis method, the most frequent cultural symbol in advertising was discovered as the basis and general image of the online tourism advertisements. Then the author discussed the external manifestations of cultural factors in tourism advertising in detail and analysed the internal cultural values behind them using the qualitative discourse analysis method. The main conclusions of this study indicated that the most representative cultural characteristic of Chinese culture in tourism advertising is a high-context cultural feature; in addition, at present traditional ideology in Chinese society, such as Confucianism and Taoism, was still being conveyed in tourism advertising.

Originally, stone lanterns and pagodas (jp. ishi-doro) were introduced into Japan from China in the 6th century (Asuka period) at the same time as Buddhism, primarily used to light the front of Buddhist temples. Made of metal and mainly used to light doorways to shrines and temples, they converted under the influence by Japanese tea-master Sen-no-Rikkyu in the late 1500s to really become a major garden element made out of granite stone. Japanese tea ceremonies were often held in the evenings and light was needed to guide guests to the tea room. Stone lanterns and pagodas come in many different sizes and shapes, but common to them all is a hollowed light chamber (hibukuro) made to hold any kind of light source such as electric lights, candles or oil lamps. Stone lanterns can be classified into four basic categories: - Yukimi-gata (snow-viewing lanterns) - Tachi-gata (pedestal lanterns) - Ikekomi-gata (buried lanterns) - Oki-gata (small lanterns) One last word regarding availability. We have a large selection of our products on stock in Switzerland. However, due to limited space, we do not always have all items on stock shown on our website.

Priyatna Dosen Program Studi Sastra Inggris Fakultas Komunikasi, Sastra dan Bahasa Universitas Islam “45” Bekasi Abstrak Kota Tua merupakan salah satu cagar budaya (cultural conservation zone) dan sejarah kota Jakarta. Di area ini, khususnya di area Taman Fatahillah dan Glodok, terdapat banyak peninggalan artefak budaya (cultural artifact) dan praktek budaya (cultural practices) yang memberikan penarasian aspek-aspek spatialitas (spatiality) dan etnisitas(ethnicity) kota Jakarta. Pusat dari penarasian ini adalah Museum Sejarah Kota Jakarta/ Museum Fatahillah yang didirikan di atas bekas balai kota Batavia, stadhuis. Posisi ini, menempatkan Museum Sejarah Kota Jakarta berada dalam dua posisi narasi; 1) posisi narasi yang mengacu pada spatialitas dan etnisitas masa lalu (Past Narrative) dan 2) posisi narasi yang mengacu pada konteks kekinian (Present Narrative). Hal ini memunculkan pertanyaan tentang narativitas (narrativity) penarasian sejarah kota Jakarta. Karena itu, penelitian difokuskan pada: 1) sudut pandang yang dipergunakan dalam penarasian melalui sequent koleksi museum dan kronologis sejarah (timeline) dan 2) konsep dan ideology yang berusaha dikonstruksi maupun yang mengkonstruksi narasi dalam narasi.
