I am very excited about how Bhaktananda Ashram is unfolding. I have been called to create spiritual community all over the planet, but I did not know how this was to happen. This information is being revealed to me here in such a sweet way. Shanthi Nilayam and Bhaktananda Ashram are now in partnership, building a sustainable, spiritual community that is loosely based on http://www.sadhanaforest.org, with the exception that we are not vegan.
Shanthi Nilayam has the organic farm underway, employing biodynamic techniques and building sustainable earthships with solar power. Bhaktananda Ashram is offering the spiritual component with kirtan and other Sacred Sound practices, classes, and workshops. There are additional partnership potentials in South Africa and two other countries that I cannot remember at the moment. This is happening with such Grace and Ease that it is CLEARLY the Universe’s orchestration.
If anyone wants to be a part of the emerging social paradigm, one based on cooperation and sustainability, investing in Bhaktananda Ashram is one way to do that. I will be asking for support soon in bringing this vision into reality. We are committed to leaving the communities we operate in better off than when we arrived. I see Bhaktananda Ashram gaining valuable information on the construction and maintenance of such communities here in Thiruvannamalai and bringing that knowledge to a variety of places on the planet, including the US. I see these communities becoming shining examples of cooperative living in this new age of conscious awareness we are moving into as a species, and I am grateful for this opportunity to do my small part to herald it in.
Shanti OM! May the Peace of God be yours!
