Sat Nam,

 

what a traffic near the festival in this group! Wahe Guru!

 

I hope, we can meet again at the tea area, finding to meet informal or a little bit more formal, we will see.

It takes time to find a working structure and I hope we will find together, maybe to arrange influence  on the next year program as early as needed. I believe its our responsibility.

 

Love and blessings

 

Onkar Singh

 

P.S. Ich will bring 5 color-printed rainbow khanda  A4 Posters to the festival for the wall, if needed … guerilla advertising!

Sat Nam dear Rainbow Sangat,

So sorry to hear the EYF has not included any mention of the RS program proposals, this must be the third year the RS has sent forth a proposal so it is quiet odd it has been totally ommited.

As Raghurai points out, we as a group are also slow at coming forward ourselves and it would seem we need to be more visible and proactive as a group. Does the group need to be more cohesive within its self? if so how do we achive this?

That said unfortunately I myself  will not be at this years EYF.

I am based in London, and frequently work in Ireland and Germany and hoping to connect with the international RS on any level asap.

Wishing you all much courage and connection at this years EYF.

With love and blessings

Surinder Kaur

Sat Nam Carolyn,

My intuition tells that this is probably an unconscious homophobic communication and Satya Singh or whomever is responsible, forgot to include the Rainbow Sangat's proposal in the EYF's evening program scheduled. This has put me off presenting anything.

On another level, I think our 'community' is in some ways shy and this is also a wake up call for us to be more on the ball and 'come out' more prominent for next year at Chateau Anand 2013.

However, I agree with you that we should put up a notice at the camp and spread the word so we can at least meet up 2 or 3 times - depending on number of people attending. Any suggestions for the notice? Shall we include our photo? We could meet up at the tea lounge like last year. If the group is big then we move it somewhere else.

We also need to sort out our own communication website, because we hardly ever get any replies or hardly reaches anyone from the Rainbow Sangat.

Blessings

Raghurai Singh

Sat Nam,

I was surprised to see that it was not there. It is a strong step to take to ignore it…. unless you have heard something from him. 

 

I suggest making a notice and setting a time for a meeting, at least, which is open to the camp. 

 

Your thoughts?

Sat Nam dear Sohan and Carolyn,

I guess you have seen the program from the EYF with no information about the Rainbow Sangat. Why do you think we were left out or happened there?

What shall we do?

Dear Friends of the Festival,

1.

For months we worked on presenting to you an inspiring and uplifting program.

Now it is ready and we invite you to take a look…

2.

There are still a few work exchange possibilities (full and half discounts) available in childrens camp. For more information please see the attached file.

3.

Just a reminder for those, who did not receive the previous announcements:

the festival will take place this year in Fondjouan (like the last ten years) as the new land was not completely ready. For traveling instructions see:

 

Looking forward so see you soon, and wishing you a safe journey,

Satya Singh,

European 3HO

sat nam!

 

would it make sense to agree on a day for meeting already?

perhaps that would make it easier to find each other and also to get a concrete poster with a concrete invitation to the others on the bulletin board.

 

shall we already meet on Wednesday, august 1?

and if so, would you get a poster with date & time (afternoon workshop time?) on the bulletin board, onkar?

 

love & light,

sohan

I think that meeting up on Wed Aug 1 fat the tea lounge after meal during evening workshop about 5.30pm is a good idea.

I wonder who can print out a poster announcing Rainbow Sangat meeting for LGBT and their friends. I don't have access to colour photocopy.

I also think we should send a communication to Satya Singh asking him to let us know what happen or demanding an explanation. We can talk about this on Wed.

I look forward to see you all

Blessings

RS

Sat Nam,

See you the day after tomorrow

Sat Nam dear Rainbow Sangat

as mentioned in my previous mail, I cannot join you this year at the EYF.
If possible do please consider including in your meetings the option of organising further RS meetings at similar KY gatherings or seperate RS gatherings to enable us to become more cohesive, strong and focused as a group.

I look forward to hearing about your connections and comunications and wish you all strength and spirit for this years group activites.
Blessings 
Surinder Kaur.

Sat Nam

Thank you Onkar for offering to bring the A4 coulour posters. I think we could agree to meet up Wed at 5.30pm after mealtime at the tea lounge and go somewhere else if there is a large group.

We need to see if everyone is receiving the emails

We will in inform everyone after the festival and make sure we are included next year's program.

On another matter, If anyone arrives tomorrow at Blois between 7.00-7.30pm - perhaps earlier - and could give me a lift or share a taxi, I'd be grateful. Please send me a message 0044 7900544175. I'm actually arriving in Tour airport about 6pm.
