Sat Nam, Sangat,

Who would like to be on planning committee for a TT reunion event? (Ruby, I know you're in-  who else? )   I see 2 events - a practice session on the weekend and perhaps a mid week dinner another day.

First- we have a place for a practice gathering so let's plan this.

Dorothy has generously offered her space on 17th St.  which could hold us all  for a meditation/chanting session.  Not enough space for a full yoga session, but enough to sit.

Proposed date is Sunday December 4th from 2 PM to 5 PM.

(Note, Anthony is moving far away soon- but can make it on Sundays from 2 to 4 - so that is a reason for the timing. Also gives time to attend the Sunday class at KYE)


Suggested format-

Arrive on time or a bit early.
2 pm -3:45   We all say teachers oath together.  Tune in.  Maybe some simple warm ups in place.  Do 2  31 minute meditations or one 62 minute or some other combo  (need volunteers to choose and lead them. I just want to do some chanting - so maybe one silent and one mantra meditation. and maybe would be good for a few people to lead, get more experience for those of us not teaching yet.   )

3:345- 5 PM  Snacks and conversation (need volunteers to bring light snacks)

5 Pm Clean up and leave. - and those who want could move the gathering to a restaurant, maybe Zen Palate.

Also need volunteers to contact everyone, as not all are on this list .  Maybe we could do an Evite. 

So as not to bother this list with too many planning emails, please let me know if you want to be part of a planning committee.. 

Let me know your thoughts:)

Surjot (Lenore)

I could make it to a dinner monday or tuesday, or after 9 any day during the week, but again, my schedule is a litte hectic right now, so I understand if that won't work, though of course I would really love to be there :)

to kye, Lenore Lyons
Sat Nam Surjot,
Thank you for the detailed outline for the TT reunion event. Dec 4th works for me.
I would be happy to help. 

I have many DVD's with lectures and meditations led by Yogi Bhajan. Would you like 
me to find something relevant to us all. Let me know. OR

If you want to do two 31 min meditations...My suggestion is:

1. Healing with the Siri Gaitri Mantra ( Ra-Ma-Da-Sa Meditation) ( Pg 96, Instructors manual) ( 31min)
and
2. Meditation for Prosperity I ( Har Ha-Ray Ha-Ree Meditation) ( Pg 112, Instructors Manual) ( 31min)

Both of these are beautiful meditations and healing for everyone.
Take a look at them and see what you feel.

Lets keep the dialogue going.

Best,
Sujan ( Rachna)

Sat Nam 

This sounds great. Thank you Dharma & Surjot for planting the seed for all of us to get together. 

I would be happy to come up with an e-vite for this and can contribute some snacks for the 4th. 

Sujan, great suggestions. I would like to add:

Pran Bandha Mantra Meditation (p.21 TT Workbook)
Works with prana to merge the finite with the infinite.

Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving

Hi, Marian,

Not a problem to leave it open.  We'll have an Evite where you can note yes no or maybe.  (Daleep, would love to have you set this up) 

Note, I'm going to start a an off list thread  for organizing this event, as I well understand the too much email syndrome - will include Rachna- Sujan,  Felix -Daleep, Dorothy, me and let me know if anyone else would like to join. 

And Ruby- let's organize a weeknight dinner also -  best to have more than one reunion gathering, as we all have such diverse schedules.   I'll email off list. 

in love

Surjot (Lenore)

Sat Nam,

Here is a Kriya we can do, followed by the Pran Bandh Meditation:

WHO WOULD LIKE TO LEAD THIS KRIYA AND MEDITATION?
IF ANY OF YOU HAS NOT HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO TEACH.....
HERE IS YOUR CHANCE.             
( I have taught some classes....so its time for someone new).

If anyone has any other suggestions, please let me know.

Best,
Rachna

Hi Lenore,
 
Thank you so much for putting this together.  I regret I will not be able to attend.  I'm sure you will all have an amazing time!
