Exciting new developments

While we were in Lugano a couple of months ago, I felt a certain amount of inward restlessness. It was hard to pin down and define. The best I could come up with was that I felt some sort of shift was trying to happen.

In fact, for some time I had been becoming aware of a subtle but gradually increasing sense that we needed to be doing something more to accomplish our mission in serving the music of Ananda.

Well, not too long after we got back from Europe, Ramesha made the decision to reduce his teaching schedule in order to serve the music ministry full time. This is a huge shift — for him and for me — which is rippling out and inspiring the exciting new developments which we’re sharing about in the letter that follows.

Dear friend,

We’d like to share some exciting new developments about our work in service to Ananda Music.

Starting in the next few months, Bhagavati and I will be focusing a lot more on traveling to Ananda centers and meditation groups to provide support with learning, singing, and more deeply understanding our music.

We’ve experienced again and again the transforming power of Ananda Music; we want to make it possible for more people to benefit from it.

Our goal is to support everyone who wants to learn and sing our wonderful music!

🎈 If this project inspires you and you feel to support our efforts and help with travel expenses, we invite you to join our Bhagavati & Ramesha Patreon.

As a thank you for your generous help you will receive an exclusive video from us every month. 🙏💫

Yay! The energy is definitely moving and we’re thrilled with the prospect of potentially visiting five different Ananda communities between now and the end of the year!

The power of seclusion

Seclusion has worked its magic on me once again.

Even though it wasn’t a totally strict seclusion, there was enough of a shift from my normal activity flow to allow me to open up and receive the blessings.

And blessings there were! One of the biggest is that I’m actually looking forward to tomorrow’s eight-hour Christmas meditation — for the first time in a while.

Looking for the shift

A good thought to ponder as I sit in our hotel room in Sacramento, preparing for tomorrow morning’s meeting with the bone marrow transplant doctor.

So many opportunities to shift my thinking and (hopefully) also shift my consciousness.
