April 2008 Dear Siddha Yogi, Greetings! My name is Swami Ishwarananda, and I offer seva as a Siddha Yoga Meditation Teacher. This year I have been championing the study of the Siddha Yoga Message for 2008, given to us by our Guru, Gurumayi: I am writing to let you know about two wonderful opportunities for you to deepen your study of the Siddha Yoga Message. In May and June, for Baba’s 100th birthday, we will come together for This satsang will take place in Siddha Yoga ashrams, meditation centers, chanting and meditation groups, and on the Siddha Yoga Website between May 16th and June 15th. As the Siddha Yoga Meditation Teacher for this event, I will be guiding you as we honor Babaʹs life, his teachings, and his great spiritual legacy to the world. We will study Gurumayiʹs teachings from the Siddha Yoga Message for 2008. The satsang will culminate in an extended chant and meditation. On October 18th, we will come together for I will be one of the Siddha Yoga teachers guiding you once again. The Siddha Yoga Shaktipat Intensive is a life‐ transforming event, a precious opportunity for seekers who are new to Siddha Yoga, as well as for those who have been on the path for many years. In the Intensive, seekers receive shaktipat initiation, the awakening of the Kundalini Shakti, through the Guruʹs sankalpa and the Guruʹs grace. I so look forward to being with you in May and October. To learn about these and other events and available study tools, you can visit the Siddha Yoga Website (www.siddhayoga.org).
