November 7th, we celebrate the Day of Goodwill and the 80th anniversary of Master KPK, Sri K. Parvathi Kumar (1945-2022) – it is the 81st anniversary in Indian counting.
A cup of coffee on a journey to Mount Shasta, California, September 2014
Sri Kumar was born on 7th of November 1945 in Vijayawada, a Wednesday at 07:33 am in the month of Scorpio. He did not speak much about himself – he shared the birth date details seemingly casually in the book “Enlightening Encounters” (PDF), episode 10, about his encounter with Sadguru Sree Sivananda Murthy. See below his birth chart.
Master Kumar was a very magnetic person radiating a strong divine presence which was felt by all those who could tune in. For others, he remained a “by-passer” of a journey.
Many members cherish fond memories of encounters with the Master. He was an outstanding role model for them. At the 2019 Anniversary of Master KPK – Day of Goodwill celebration, he recounted several stories about great role models from his youth who had had a profound influence on him. We can learn much about the Master himself from his stories about others. Through such descriptions, he ignited the fire of aspiration in many Here is a short excerpt from his speech.
“I had a friend in childhood who introduced me to activities like Bhajans in praise of the Lord in a Shiva temple on the night of Shiva Rathri. That is also something which I enjoyed a lot. Then I got to stay in the house of my maternal grandfather for 3 years and study because my father used to get transferred regularly in his job. Those years passed away splendorously. I used to see that my grandfather used to lead his life as a ritual filled with Divine alignment and service. He used to worship Lord Dattatreya. He also used to write the name of Lord Rama daily and in 30 years he wrote it 30 million times. He also used to perform a ritual to the Divine within himself based on Sri Suktam. He used to run a furniture making and selling business. It used to export from his shop to many places in the country. He hardly gave any instructions in the shop. He used to just sit in his chair and write Rama’s name while everything happened just like that. I used to visit the shop sometimes by going with him. I closely witnessed his life for almost 3 years and I can never forget the discipline and ritualistic way of life. His vision and speech were also very powerful. They almost made the other person speak the truth even if the other person wanted to lie.
In this manner, I was graced by the Divine throughout my childhood and grew up in a Divine atmosphere. I realised that the Divine is all permeating and the Divine can be related to through different names and forms but it is ONE. This became clear to me at a very young age. I finished my education and was about to start my professional career. That is when I got in touch with Master EK. I told him “I learnt to live life of offering from my father and grandfather. I would like to continue leading such a life under your direction and move even closer to the Divine.” Master EK patted my shoulder and say “we will work together from today.” From then on, my association with Master EK kept growing and he introduced me to many other Masters who have been working on this planet with bodies of light. I came to know that anyone with sincere aspiration can attain a subtle body and keep working with it even after leaving the physical.”
May we follow the teachings Master KPK gave through his life by orienting our lives to the Master and the Great Ones he followed himself. Namaskarams Master KPK.

Scorpio is the eighth sign and is associated with the depths of darkness, secrecy and death, as well as the phoenix. Scorpio as the number eight stands for change. Change is usually feared by people, but it is inevitable. Our outer being (the personality), i.e. the mental, emotional and worldly aspects of our lives, is changeable. Death is simply a transformation, a disappearance of the physical for a reappearance of the spiritual. In the depths of our being, we are unchanging. As souls, we are eternal, and the light of the soul is also eternal. Scorpio can lead us into the depths of our being and help us to ignite our will and transform ourselves into light.
We were a little group of 7 members from Austria, South Germany and Switzerland who met at the ancient Roman Quarries of Würenlos in northern Switzerland on 12 October 25. It is the place of a huge limestone grotto where Emma Kunz (1893-1962) had discovered the healing qualities of the rock. It is available in Switzerland under the name of AION A (read more about it). Emma Kunz was a clairvoyant Swiss healer, researcher and artist. Since 1986, there exists the Emma Kunz Centre with a museum near the cave to preserve the collection of her artwork and the results of her research for posterity.

We first walked to a grill cabin in the nearby forest for our Sunday healing meditation. Afterwards, we visited the cave, for which we had a 30 minutes time-slot (you have to book in advance, see the regulations to keep the purity of the cave and allow experiencing the energy of the place).

For many years, the work of Emma Kunz was not recognized by the contemporaries. She did not intend for her works to be seen in a fine arts context, instead she recorded the medical meanings of her works in books. She stated that her work will be more understood in the 21st century. In the last decades, there were great international expositions showcasing her work.
In summer 2024, my friend Joan from Barcelona, from the Anima Channel, visited the Emma Kunz grotto and did a video presenting Emma Kunz, in English.
Scorpio represents the descent of spirit into matter. It is compared to the form of an inverted cone or a spiral path where the windings become smaller and smaller. Matter signifies the relative absence of spirit-consciousness. It is described as the spiritual death or a bottomless pit in which we can fall when we are disconnected with the thread of Light. For the soul, it is a situation of spiritual ignorance and the related suffering.
When we reverse our direction and consciously re-link to the thread of Light, the cone becomes wider and the path becomes white and radiant. The soul experiences liberation from the bondage of matter and joy. There are guides who are firmly linked to the Light helping us on the way up. And at a later stage, we will become such helpers ourselves assisting others on their way.
The inverted cone in the upper centre of the image is constructed with photos of two snail shells. The rim of the upper end of the cone is designed with elements of a transformed ring galaxy photo of Nasa indicating the macrocosmic and microcosmic dimensions of descent and ascent. In its centre there is a column of light leading at the bottom to a star, symbol of the soul falling into matter.
The multi-layered construction in the background is designed with a picture of a Saligrama (fossilized ammonite symbolising Vishnu, the Lord of Pervasion). Its fiery colours indicate the states of ignorance and suffering of the souls lost in matter.
A person in dark clothes is walking towards the abyss, unaware of the star-like lights on the path. A person clad in white is standing on the right side in the direction of ascent, ready to help. The figure, designed with a photo of Master Kumar, is in a column of Light. The column is directed from the heart via head towards the stars of the Great Bear, symbol of the cosmic White Brotherhood, and further beyond.
Libra is the third cardinal and second air sign of the zodiac. In the physical body, Libra is related to the navel – the quiescent centre around which the wheel of activity revolves. The symbol of the sign ♎︎ represents the scales of justice, the crisis of choice and the axis of the equinoxes of Aries and Libra.
The symbol of Libra alludes to a bird with wings spread wide, hovering above the horizontal plane of the earth, in a state of perfect balance. This represents the prana state of Samana Vayu, the balance point between inhalation and exhalation. Through this point, we can enter and ascend into the inner pillar of consciousness.
I was pondering on the next image of Libra and reading in the book “Spiritual Personality Development” by Master EK. I came across a quote from the poem “The Winds of Fate” by the American poetess Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1850 – 1919) written at the age of 15. It says,
“One ship sails East, And another West, By the self-same winds that blow, ‘Tis the set of the sails And not the gales, That tells the way we go.” It further goes on, “‘Tis the set of the soul that decides its goal And not the calm or the strife.”
Master EK explains that the angle of the sail we set is called reasoning (thinking logically and not as an emotional reaction). And as wind is more universal than our ship, the direction of creation and the planetary evolution are greater and more universal than our likes and dislikes. Once we align ourselves with the purpose of evolution, our likes and dislikes come into harmony with the universal direction of our nature.
Libra guides the path of choices. Right choices and right adjustments are to be made with responsibility, aligning ourselves with the greater purpose. It is the set of the sails.
I designed the image with photos of an Indian boat, a coastline in Scotland and sunrays shining through clouds in South Germany. The rays are like signs for elevating ourselves and the rocks indicate possible obstacles on the way. We steer our boat and set the sails as per the purpose we pursue.
At the moment, there is a tour of Guru Prasad, the President of WTT-Global, to several groups of the WTT in Argentina (I posted a news on Telegram with a link to a YouTube streaming of his talk given at the University of Posadas in the north of Argentina.) I had been in touch with the organisation and followed the tour via a WhatsApp chat with many photos and clips.
Yesterday ended the 4-days group living at Iguazu near the famous waterfalls. For me, it was like being again at the places which we had visited on a tour through Argentina with Master KPK and his wife Krishna Kumari in 2015. We also had been at the same hotel near the waterfalls.
This morning, Adriana, a member of the organisation team, contacted me. The Posadas group had created a little gift for the participants of the group life and had done a beautiful video about this teamwork.

Adriana asked me to share the video with Guru Prasad – which I did. And I would also like to share the video with you. It’s very well done. Enjoy.
Yesterday, Sunday 31 August 2025, we celebrated the anniversary “42 Years of The World Teacher Trust-Global”, with the motto “Wisdom is the skill of relating” – a statement of Master KPK. The last months, I was much involved with planning and organising this global event transmitted via Zoom, with physical and virtual meetings.
There were three presentations of inspiring projects and initiatives from different parts of the globe. First, about “Mithila Vidyalayam” – setting up schools and providing value based education to children in slum/rural areas, incl. a video presentation by B.R.K. Raju (Navaneetham), the secretary of WTT-India and the Circle of Goodwill, India.
Then there was a presentation y Gabi Pares, Spain of “Buena Voluntad en Acción“, or in Catalan, “Bona Voluntad en acció” (Good Will in Action) – a volunteer-based association in Barcelona, Spain, which promotes the inclusion of socially excluded people.
And finally of “ANIMA” – a supranational group and an open channel for sharing wisdom teachings via student-to-student videos, in Spanish and English. The presentation was done by Maxim Verbist, Montreal, and, in the background, by Joan de Bes form Barcelona – the video about Anima was done by Sandra Mabel from Olavarría, Southern Argentina. A very nice and inspired team.
Guru Prasad Kambhampati, the President of WTT-Global, from Visakhapatnam, India, gave an introduction and a closing talk. Frank Berger, a guitarist from Berlin, contributed the musical framework with little “Musical Precipitation of Master Messages”. And I spoke about “Developing the skill of relating”, presented the contributions and guided through the program. There were about 100 people participating from various parts of the globe.
Virgo is an earth sign and is related to matter. In its subtle state, matter is pure, but in its dense or gross state, it loses its purity and virginity and becomes worldly. The first half of the sign of Virgo is filled with subtle, pure nature, while the second half belongs to gross nature. In Eastern tradition, Ganesha is worshipped as the son of the World Mother, and his birthday is celebrated in the fourth waxing moon phase of Virgo. Ganesha, the cosmic Jupiter principle, symbolises wisdom or the subtle nature that can reflect God’s light, love and power. May the cosmic Jupiter principle help us to experience the golden light of the World Mother.
