Winter Break 2009

Guruji gave us the dates for Winter Break 2009 just last night… Here they are:

December 26th 2009 to January 4th 2010

Reporting on December 25th or 26th anytime before 11:00 pm

Dec 28th 2009 to Jan 1st 2010: The Advance Course (YES!++)

Jan 1st to Jan 3rd: Sahaj Samadhi Meditation

Jan 4th: Rudra Pooja and departure

We will also run the YES!+ DSN from Jan 7th to 10th in Bangalore City (accommodation will be provided at the ashram if needed for people doing the DSN, there will however be some charge for this)

If you have any other queries for the Winter Break 2009 just write to wb2009@yesplus.org with all your questions. The course donations will be announced in a few days…

Also for this Winter Break, we are having something new:

Jan 2nd and 3rd: A Youth Festival (We need a name, so please send in ideas) … People from all over are welcome to come for the festival, regardless of whether they have done the course or not. There may be very limited accommodation on the ashram for these people, so they may need to arrange their own. There will be music, dance, drama and sports competitions. Details to be finalized, as well as many, many workshops from resume writing and how to give good job interviews to learning how to make earthen pots. Of course there will be lots and lots of (vegetarian) food :)

We want many ideas from all of you. Please write to wb2009@yesplus.org with subject festival for the Jan 2nd and 3rd event.

Jai Gurudeva!

love

bawa

  4. Prashant says:

    Will guruji himself be the teacher for the advance course?

    • Bawa says:

      Guruji is Himself the teacher for ALL Art of Living courses … but, if you are asking if He will be physically present during the course, then the answer is no… He won’t be physically there during the course. However, its very probable that on the last day He might come to see everyone
      Jai Gurudeva!

    Its amazing how Guruji listen to each n every prayer :)
    Yesterday only late in the evening I was thinking of writing you a mail asking you about the details of winter break and to write that I want to volunteer for it this time and get along looooootss of people from Delhi,and then only the next thought was that it is too soon to ask about the dates as it must have not been finalized yet and I smiled and let it go.
    And here it is :) He gave the dates last night only :) :)
    I’m in with a big group from Delhi :)
    Jai guru dev

  18. Neha says:

    i was toying with “JALSA” as a name for the cultural fest (not because of its connection with any film stars’s residence) coz it means CELEBRATION. But i guess we need a more global alternative, something that people from all cultures can understand!
    will be there for the cultural fest,
    jai gurudev!

    I just finished my DSN with Atika Di in Gurgaon. Had great fun. I met you last June at Advance course in Ashram and was watering your room plants as seva. I love reading your candid style of writing blogs. Your humor is classy.

    I have a problem in life, but am unsure if you will have the time to address it amidst soooo much fan following mails.Anyways, if Divine Grace feels that the time is right, it would happen some day. jgd :)
