We are now one week away from our worldwide Celebration of Easwaran’s Life and Teachings on Sunday, October 29 – we hope you will join us! You can read details of how to participate at www.bmcm.org/celebration.
This week in the eSatsang, let’s study Easwaran’s article “The Good Student: Earnestness and Enthusiasm” on pages 46–53 of the 2017 Blue Mountain Journal Teacher and Student. Easwaran narrates, “I kept plugging. Every day my limitless love for Sri Krishna reassured me that someday, somehow, a door would open and let me through.” Let us keep plugging too this month and together move closer to our teacher and our goal.
What is Easwaran telling you about the workings of your own mind? This week, use this new understanding to get some cooperation from your mind when it is being uncooperative. Tell us how it goes!
Continuing our reflection for Easwaran’s Life Celebration, we have two prompts for you this week. If you’d like, you can use this reflection worksheet to keep your notes.
Think about your daily or weekly schedule. Think of one small way you could tweak that schedule to put meditation first in the upcoming year. Write it down in specific terms.
Choose a passage from God Makes the Rivers to Flow that speaks to you about the relationship you want to cultivate with Easwaran. Copy that passage.
When we all join together in BMCM Satsang Live to absorb Easwaran’s presence, followed by meditation, that is a powerful healing force that the world needs. Can you meet us there?
We hope you’ve been enjoying the excerpts from Quietly Changing the World. Here is the next excerpt for this week’s spiritual treat.
