A Day of Mantrams for Peace and Healing: Sunday, June 28
Our 99th Birthday Gift for Christine Easwaran
We invite you to join us in a day dedicated to peace and healing in the world by keeping our mantrams going as much of the day as possible and if you care to even as you fall asleep. This will be our best possible gift to Christine for her 99th birthday.
On June 28, let’s all participate together in the BMCM Satsang Live. We will start writing the mantram at 9:40 before the program begins at 10 a.m. You can find your time zone here. We will make BMCM Satsang Live the centerpiece of our mantram day, and we invite you to join us.
On June 29, Christine’s actual birthday, feel free to write in here on the eSatsang if you would like to share reflections about your mantram day. We’ll share your impressions with her!
We hope studying the new special issue of the Blue Mountain Journal is lifting everyone’s spirits and reminding us all of our deep connection with Easwaran and his community. This week we examine Easwaran’s article “Two Paths” on pages 29-41 of the new digital-only issue, where he says, “These two paths, the self-centered and the selfless, open to us constantly, in a thousand little choices throughout the day. Any time we choose to give rather than get, we have taken a step on the path of true fulfillment.”
What is one statement that speaks to your heart in this reading? How will you put it into action this week?
Continue your effort to imitate Easwaran’s evening routine. Even if some nights you can’t do it, try again to build your routine of turning off other media, reading from Easwaran for a few minutes, and then going to bed repeating the mantram.
