May 2012 Newsletter

23 May 2012

Namaste,

We invite you to our next event which will be Ecstatic Singing at Prema Drala Ashram, on Saturday the 26th of May. Following are some of the highlights from April, which was a month filled with celebrations.

On April 6th, Louix gave darshan at Prema Drala in honor of Good Friday. He offered a prayer to Jesus for all the sacrifices He made, and the example of Divine wisdom, selflessness, and perfect love He embodied. In His prayer, Louix spoke an illuminating discourse about how very few have discovered the vast richness of a life in service to God through surrender and selflessness, which ends all suffering, all confusion, and all searching. After the meditation, Pranam began playing as Louix starting receiving people for blessings.

On April 7th, in celebration of Easter, Louix hosted the Spring Garden Party at the Sanctuary. The gardens were singing from the countless hours of planting, pruning, and love they had received over the past few weeks. We had 37 adults and 9 children share the day with us. A very special playlist of love songs meticulously put together by Louix, spanning over four decades of classic love songs were playing in the background, as we all enjoyed dishes brought by the guests and made by the resident disciples. After everyone had finished eating, a few people began to ask Louix some questions, and slowly everyone gathered around under the tents to drink of the Master's wisdom. So many interesting and personal questions arose, such as “Why is my 4-year-old daughter waking me up every night for an hour or two?” “Why do I like to argue so much?” and “How do I know what God wants from me?” Louix filled our hearts and our minds while the kids enjoyed a lively game of hide-and-go-seek.

 

 On April 21st, Louix hosted a One-Day Retreat at the Center for Spiritual Living in Mission Viejo. Forty-one people attended, and the day began with Louix welcoming everyone before He started a powerful guided meditation, wherein He took us to Egypt and up to the summit of Mt. Sinai. Many shared afterwards that this meditation was one of the most powerful ever experienced.

After lunch, Louix began counseling those who asked questions. Some of the topics throughout the day included:  employment, death and the grieving process, how to deepen your relationship with God, spiritual partnerships, and why it is such a blessing to have a Guru to help us

After the Q&A, we spent the last hour singing along with Pranam and Louix.

 

On April 29th, Louix was invited to give darshan at Akasha Yoga in La Jolla, California. The studio is owned by Stephanie Pafford, and her family had come for darshan many times over the past year, as well as having attended the New Year's Eve Retreat in Sedona. She wanted to offer her studio in gratitude to Louix on this date (which was also her birthday). More than seventy people came to receive a blessing from Louix. So many new faces! The studio is on the 2nd floor, and there were windows behind Louix's chair and on the side of the room. Throughout the event, there were many seagulls swooping and dancing outside the second story window behind His chair . We hope to return to Akasha Yoga again soon. Thank you, Stephanie, for welcoming us into your studio.
