Guest guest Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 Samarpana recently discovered two amazingly beautiful teachers: The first one is http://www.vishrant.com.au/recordings.htm <http://www.vishrant.com.au/recordings.htm> Vishrant's free internet video and audio extracts are short and great pointers to awakening to our true nature, totally consistent with Amma's universal teachings about selfless service, love, devotion, heart, advaita, etc. The second teacher is a pleasant surprise for both of us because of connection to a book we started to read at Amma's Ashram; we were there six months and totally into Amma and nothing much else except do our seva, stay healthy and alert; but last two weeks, Samarpana was guided( no doubt by inner Amma ) to check out some books at the Ashram Library, and then, an American living at the ashram as a renunciate( perhaps the most humble of Amma devotees that I met ) recommended " Daughter of Fire " as a book that Amma spoke favorably of. Llewellyn Vaughan Lee ~ a most impressive awakened Sufi teacher, disciple of Irina Tweedie( author of Chasm of Fire and Daughter of Fire: A Diary of a Spiritual Training with a Sufi Master ) who was a disciple of a Hindu Sufi Master Bhai Sahib of the Sufi order Naqshbandiyya-Mujadiddiya. Born in London in 1953, Llewellyn had an awakening at 16 and then followed the Naqshbandi Sufi path since he was 19. He and his wife lived for ten years in same house with Irina Tweedie, their spiritual teacher. Irina named Llewellyn Vaughan Lee as her successor. In 1991 he moved to Northern California. In recent years, the focus of his message is that the world wants to wake up and it's up to us to say Yes. He has lectured together with Adyashanti, Sandra Ingerman, Fr. Thomas Keating. There is a wealth of free video interviews & lectures on google, youtube, etc; here is a list to start off with; there is a lot more, all free; enjoy! Some of these are lengthy; be patient some of the best stuff is toward the end. For me initially there was some impatience because I wanted to see if advaita was included? It definitely is. Then I relaxed and found the rest very fascinating and inspiring. Llewellyn said that his nature was not new-agey at all, but more like Milerapa's, meditating in cave until he turned " green. " However, Llewellyn had a vision of an " Awakened World " and that drew him out to talk about it with groups, etc. We know that Amma, a few years ago, commented that the human race might not survive; just wondering if Amma had commented any further during Europe and America Tours last Oct, Nov? A 7 minute clip of Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee interviewed by his son, Emmanuel Vaughan-Lee. http://www.workingwithoneness.org/movies/clips/evl_w.html <http://www.workingwithoneness.org/movies/clips/evl_w.html> Emmanuel Vaughan-Lee is founder and director of the Global Oneness Project Several excellent lengthy videos @ http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=Llewellyn+Vaughan-Lee & emb=0 & aq=f# <http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=Llewellyn+Vaughan-Lee & emb=0 & aq=f> Llewellyn Vaughan Lee » Working with Light » Talk 11-05 <http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6464239516878550305 & ei=hkFxSbD\ bMIzGrgKGuqyqBQ & q=Llewellyn+Vaughan-Lee> 48:35 Llewellyn Vaughan Lee » Working with Light » Q & A 11-05 <http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=1964426314104045131 & ei=hkFxSbDb\ MIzGrgKGuqyqBQ & q=Llewellyn+Vaughan-Lee> 57:37 world wants to wake up Llewellyn Vaughan Lee » Weaving a Web of Light » Q & A 06-22-2006 <http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-309809335670271940 & ei=hkFxSbDb\ MIzGrgKGuqyqBQ & q=Llewellyn+Vaughan-Lee> 59:24 with Shaman Sandra Ingerman You Are Oneness http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OtMyqYVUD-c & NR=1 <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OtMyqYVUD-c & NR=1> Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee " Inner Work " + several others youtube videos < > http://www.workingwithoneness.org/VideoAudio.html <http://www.workingwithoneness.org/VideoAudio.html> http://www.goldensufi.org/ <http://www.goldensufi.org/> http://goldensufi.org/dvd.html <http://goldensufi.org/dvd.html> Irina Tweedie <http://goldensufi.org/dvd.html#irina> , Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee <http://goldensufi.org/dvd.html#llewellyn> , w/ Fr.
