Sahaja Yoga School Programs in South Africa

March 31st, 2011

Grades 4 to 12 children

On 21 February 2011, Sahaja Yoga in South Africa held the first school realisation program for the year at Mount Edgecombe Private School in Phoenix, a suburb of Durban. Two programs were held: one for Grades 4 to 12 children and one for Grades R to 3 children.

The realisation session for Grade 4 to Grade 12 (200 children) was conducted in a cool enclosed area on the lawn.  The Deputy Principal and teachers were most accommodating and made the Sahaja yogis feel very welcome.  A student led the assembly with “Our Father” (The Lord’s Prayer).

At first, Lincoln spoke about the current problems students are exposed to, such as drugs, alcohol and peer pressure.  He also spoke about the benefits of Sahaja Yoga meditation.  Kasthurie conducted the realization session, after which everyone felt the Cool Breeze.

The children and teachers enjoyed the session and were very grateful for getting this information.

 The second session was for Grade R to Grade 3 (300 children). Because they were little ones Lincoln decided not to do his introduction bit. So after being introduced by the head of this section, the Self-realisation session was conducted by Kasthurie.  Rina did the concluding session.

 This was done under a huge beautiful old tree – a setting that made one feel like being in a village in India, where the saints gathered to share their knowledge with all who were interested in learning about God.

This was a wonderful start for the Sahaja Yoga School Programs in South Africa in 2011. These programs are being carried out by a dedicated band of Sahaja yogis who give freely of their time to help children and teachers in schools understand about Sahaja Yoga meditation.
