Namaste Swamiji,

 

Option number three would certainly be of interest to me. Regarding

option number two, I would need some additional information: how does

that work and what would I need (a webcam of course, and other

software?). If the technology required is within my means and usable

for a digitally challenged person like myself, I would also be very

interested in that option. To have visual contact can be very

important, as I found out when trying to follow the description on

tape of certain mudras without being able to see the demonstration. I

think option number two is the next best thing to physically coming to

Napa twice a week, which unfortunately is not possible for me.

 

with love,

Henny

Both audio and video versions of classes would be useful.

The MP3 files from previous classes available for podcast

at http://devnath.typepad.com/devnath/ are very handy.

MP3 audio files for podcasting would be useful for any

future classes as well.

Namaskara everyone, Jai Shree Matatji/Jai Sri Swamiji

I feel like a lost sheep...

I've been involved with my studies in Theology that I have lost my way

with the family, although from time to time, am able to check in for

short spells. I got scared, where did you go, don't leave without

me.

I understand there is a new website and I didn't receive a message

from Swamiji. [i'm phoning home, as it were, he, he, he!].

Sometimes, while I am studying and reading my Western text on

Theology, I feel I am missing out on the real good stuff...the

Chaniti-Path, which is the real homework I love and am missing.

Oh, a little bit of a tid-bit as to my studies, I got word that I

could graduate in one year from this coming fall, Instead of the two

year minimum that I had in mind, if I want! Dha! If I want...

According to my advisor, I would be finished with my studies in the

fall of 'o7. Then, my real work can begin, which is death and dying/

grief and loss issues, as a Chaplain to Hospice and as consultant to

developing a healing transitional factors into [Near Life

Experiences], I like to call it. rather than [near death experiences

NDEs.

So, please don't go anywhere without me. God, I feel very attached to

the Mandir; Mother and Swamiji and yo'al. Am I hitting the right

website?

Please advise,

Restless in Seattle,

Edward

ps/ what about photo gallery? are you going to put photo's of Mataji

and Swamiji (The Mandir), etc?. I love to have beautiful pictures.

I feel the blessings from Maa so wonderfully so, that I can't help but

to tear, thank you! It's really not ME who is crying, it's coming from

my heart...like a butterfly wanting to fly in the ocean of Love.

Beloved Swamiji,

Namaste.

 

In response to your questions - Option 3 is the only one which I can

say yes to at this time. Distance makes it impossible to visit the

Mandir weekly and I do not have a webcam .. not sure the pc can

support one.

Jai Maa!!!!

We are so blessed.

 

Nanda asked:

"We want your input as to how we might implement these classes."

 

"How many of you would be able to physically come to the Devi Mandir

one or two nights a week for sat sangha or a class?"

 

When the time is right and the invitation comes, I will move to be

closer to the Devi Mandir and would love to attend weekly classes or

sat sangha. Currenly, I live a long plane ride away.

 

How many of you would be interested to tune in to a live broadcast

via webcam one or two nights a week, and to ask questions in a live

chat or on the group forum?

 

Yes, I am interested and would very much value this opportunity. The

bhava at the Mandir is so amazing. It would be wonderful to have this

shared around the world with Shree Maa's devotees. It would be

wonderful to experience the focused sadhana of our Gurus and long

time devotees, Maa's generous love, the bhava of the Devi Mandir, the

dedication, and the wisdom and joy from Swamiji.

 

It will be pretty labor intensive to coordinate a live chat.

I am interested in this as well.

I would love to tune into a live broadcast, but I work most evenings,

so I would probably not be able to tune in when you all would be

having the webcast.

> How many of you would be interested in reading archived transcripts

> or listening to or viewing online classes from our website on a

> regular basis?

 

Yes! This would be great! I've already enjoyed the online material

that's available now, and would love to have more available for

study. I agree with Henny that it's invaluable to be able to see the

positions for such things as mudras without having to guess what to do

from a written description (even though it's a blessing even to have a

written description!!). It's always so exciting to see video of pujas

and homas at the Mandir, and I already have Swamiji's DVD and the

Shree Maa and Swami tour DVD. I would purchase any additional DVDs

immediately, and any future online video clips are a huge blessing to

have!

> Do any of you have other suggestions on how we can share the

> commentaries we wish to make about the books that we have written?

 

How about having the commentaries not only in a file format on the

website, but also as actual published and bound companion texts -- or,

for example, a puja and commentary or scripture and commentary

published together as one book?

 

Just as an aside about visits to the Mandir, for those of us who are

very far away, if there were one or two annual special events to which

out-of-towners were invited to attend -- possibly a three- or five-day

retreat combined with puja/homa -- I bet that many of us would attend,

if there was notice several months ahead of time, and we could plan

for it. So many people on this group would love to be able to have

Shree Maa and Swamiji's darshan, and a chance to learn from them in

person.

 

Thanks to Swamiji for asking for our input!

I would be interested in both of these options...thank you, Swamiji

for asking (and thank you, Nanda)...

 

All pranams to Shree Maa and to our Divine Mother Kali.

[Guest guest]

Jai Maa, Jai Kali, Jai Bhavani, Jai Shiva, Jai Swamiji,

 

Thank you Nandaji for conveying this message of Swamiji. Personally,

I would love to move out to California area, and be close to Maa &

Swamiji and the Devi Mandir Family. But with me, my parents would

have to move out as well, so this might take a year or two for it to

happen, if it's Maa's will. But until that time, I will take

advantage of the other options, if my computer is not capable of

tuning in live, the proper upgrades to the computer will be made, so

that I can participate in that medium.

 

I will think about other ways to share the commentaries, as I become

more involved in this process. Thank you to Maa and Swamiji for

offering us this opportunity, just like everyone else, if I lived

closer to the Devi Mandir, I would definitely LOVE to be part of the

sat sangha and the classes in person, but alas.... sigh.... Jai Maa..

I would come to the Mandir a couple of days a week whenever possible

and when not would listen to the classes on the website.

Dear Edward,

Your work in death/dying and chaplain to hospital is incredible.

Chandi will always be there with you in your work, if you ask Her

sincerely. She isn't going anywhere so no need to feel lost.

Dear Swamiji Maharaj

 

I think this is an excellent idea to listen to live broadcast via

webcam one or two nights a week. I will surely join this webcast and

ask questions in a live chat.

 

We will be blessed to hear Swamiji and Shreemaa as we have not

physically seen them.

 

With Pranams and Best regards

"How many of you would be interested in reading archived

transcripts"

 

Maha Pranams Swamiji ..

 

I would definately be interested in reading archived transcripts.

My internet connection is slow and my computer is fairly old..

 

Transcripts would be perfect for me as I could print them out and

save them.

 

I live in the Midwest..It might be neat to offer workshops at Devi

Mandir over a course of several days in a row making it possible for

out of town devotees to travel out on an extended stay to participate.

 

Love,

 

Kanti
