Framed pictures of the Gurus
Dust is a Must
By Sat Bachan Kaur
My love has always been to frame photos and paintings of the Gurus, the Golden Temple and the Siri Singh Sahib Ji. What a joy to realize recently that I could add to these framed photos, precious specks of the "Dust of the Saints' Feet", "Santo Dur", along with little bits of the petals from garlands that have graced the Ramalas in our Gurdwara.

 New Ashram Member Mahandeep Kaur
I love living in Espanola for the group sadhana and live chanting in the amrit vela. It truly helps me stay disciplined in my practice, and in daily gurdwara service I have the opportunity to recommit my service to God and Guru. I find the benefits so profound that I often marvel at why people aren't flocking here to meditate within the company of the holy, in the home, noted by the Siri Singh Sahib, as the mailing address for God!

Yogi Bhajan, Tantric Necklace and Worthiness
by Hari Jiwan Singh

Photo from

I'll tell you something which has shocked me - people writing me, expressing deep, heartfelt appreciation for their Tantric Necklace. I'm starting to see many more benefits to the Tantric Necklace, that I had no idea about. Let me give you an example. As you know, I'm big on "worthiness" - the art of expecting more out of life. I believe and have experienced that everything is available, just waiting for us on this path. All we have to do is be willing to accept more. We've been truly blessed. Read entire article |

Ashram Gardens
Photo from Khalsa Greenhouses Facebook page |
There is a group of enthusiastic gardeners in our ashram community, dedicated to turning many of the ashram fields green and beginning the process of producing our own food supply of organic vegetables for langar and beyond. We have begun two plots for this year. One plot is at the Ranch along the back field near the existing garden plot, and one is the first part of the lower field, inside the walking track below the langar hall. The current process is to build the soil so it is ready for planting this spring. Read entire article |

Interview with Satya Kaur of Ram Das Puri, about her practice of NMT
by Kirpal Kaur
Sat Nam, Satya Kaur. Can you tell the sangat about what you do?
Satya Kaur: I am grateful to have the opportunity to share a bit about the healing work I practice. The protocol I use is called Neuro Modulation Technique, or NMT. It was co-founded by the late Dr. Pritam Singh Khalsa, of Yuba City. It is a healing modality consistant with Siri Singh Sahib's description of what healing is in the Aquarian Age - a method to establish a strong communication with the body, mind and soul to support the experience of self-healing.

Food for Health - Using Ginger, Onions & Garlic to stay healthy this winter
From the article, "The Trinity Roots: A Formula for Keeping Up!- Recipes for Healing with Onions, Garlic and Ginger Root" by Sat Jivan Kaur Kha lsa, NY
Yogi Bhajan said eat onions, garlic, and ginger. He taught us that these three foods would help us stay healthy, detoxify our internal organs, feed our glandular system, regenerate our creative and sexual energy, stimulate our immune system, help clean and rebuild our brain function and entire nervous system.

RECIPE FOR A GINGER 'BIG MAC' - Take a large amount of fresh ginger, peel it and grate it finely, discarding any knots of fiber. Lightly sauté grated ginger in ghee, until it softens and starts to stick. Pile a piece of buttered toast up with ˝ cup of cooked ginger, cover with a slice of cheese and bake in the oven, just until the cheese melts. (Editor's Note: Yum! - you can hardly believe how good this is!) |

Pratyahar - The Science of Dedicated Devotion
"Pratyahar is also called the science of dedicated devotion. It is not simple devotion. Simple devotion is, "Thank you, God." That's simple devotion. But pratyahar is also dedication: when anything comes, you say, "Thank You, God, for making me thank You."
- Yogi Bhajan, July 25, 1978. Excerpt from: I Am A Woman |
