Group Living Experiences
Since 10 days we are at the international group living of the World Teacher Trust (WTT) going on in Visakhapatnam, India. We had a very intense week, with the 3 days of the Guru Pooja festival followed by for days of a seminar with discourses of Sri Parvathi Kumar.
Last Sunday a marriage ritual for a young Spanish couple was done at the house of Sri Kumar, where about 20 media people came to report for different national TV and radio stations and some mayor Indian newspapers, where the event was published yesterday. Such a big publicity was strange, since the work of the WTT is normally done more in silence and with a minimum of publicity.
Sunday evening we had been invited to a very impressive Indian ballet presentation, “Tripadi Ganga”, on the story of the descent of Ganga, the cosmic energies of space coming doown to earth in the form of the sacred river Ganges.
Yesterday we were at the Planetary Healing Centre near Visakhapatnam, whereMaster Kumar gave a detailed explanation of the spiritual meaning of this story. Here are some short extracts from his discourse:
“The river Ganga is the Aquarian energies. When Jupiter is in Aquarius according to lunar calendar, the Kumbha Mela happens once in 12 years. Jupiter in Pisces according to solar calendar corresponds to Jupiter in Aquarius according to lunar calendar… From this month on there is a gathering of millions and millions in Hardwar, that is located at the very heart centre of Ganga. Even the Hierarchy comes and takes a dip. Many disciples experience Lord Maitreya and his team of adepts at Kumbha Mela, it is a great grand festival, and it is in this year…
The entire planet needed someone to receive the energy for the first descent. And no one is able to receive the powerful energy of Ganga. It is the energy of pure consciousness, which carries the energy of will, love and activity. The solar king prayed and the mother Ganga appeared and said, I am pleased with you, I will come down, but please find someone who can receive me. If I directly descend on earth, the earth will break, it will be destruction. So you have to find someone who is able to receive a thunderbolt on the head…
The solar king asked, who can do it, and the mother Ganga said, only Shiva can receive it, others cannot. He has the fire of will, he has the stability, he can receive me, and for that you have to pray for the Lord Shiva….
So the solar king worshipped Lord Shiva. He is very special, he could please the Mother Ganga and also get the clue from her how to get the energy down. And he could also win the favour of Lord Shiva…
The story of Ganga is the story of involution and evolution. Till date, if you follow the course of Ganga you get very inspired. There are so many ashrams and such a strong flow of water at all times, regardless all seasons. It carries the best flow of waters in India. Those who have done bath in Ganga even from our group they feel they cannot come out of the river, it is such an experience. When time permits, you may have a dip into Ganga, it is very useful.”
Master Kumar in the garden of the Planetary Healing Centre
After the discourse at noon we had a beautiful group meditation in the Planetary Healing Centre and then continued to Ramadri, a temple compound developed by the WTT. A that place the sound of Ram, representing the energies of Cosmic Fire is being continuously intonated and millions of written versions of the mantram have been installed in the earth so as to anchor the energies.
There were pupils of different Mithila schools run for free by the Circle of Good Will, India, for poor children at different places in Andhra Pradesh who had come to this site. In these schools children are educated, who normally don’t have access to regular classes due financial needs. Besides the normal education they are instructed in the ancient Indian values and principles of living.
Tthe teachers of the schools were presented to us and the heads of the schools were honoured by Master Kumar.
Then the children recited verses or songs. It was very impressive and touching to see the devotion with which the children presented their songs.
Today was the close of the seminar part, and tonight the whole group will go by train to Kumbhakonam in the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu. The meaning of the word is “Aquarian angle”, and in that town 100 years ago Master CVV received the energies of synthesis. It says that the name of the town indicates that when the last Aquarian age starte, one platonic year or 26000 years ago, it was in this place that the energies manifested.
