Stories by ashram members that share their knowledge and experiences in the ashram.
About five years ago, I was able to come down from Albuquerque to help serve again as I had for many years before.
The day before, as I was driving in to help with Thursday prep, I became excited as I saw the walkers along the highway, beginning their pilgrimage even from as far away as Albuquerque and Algodones.
Leah and John York are looking to support the community through the production of local, healthy foods and teaching participants in the Seva Sadhana program and community about their connection to health and nutrition through conscious connection to the land and growing their own food. Leah has planned a rotating organic crop cycle that should provide fresh fruit and vegetables throughout all seasons, utilizing vegetarian based composting methods to create vital healthy living soil and plants.

After the tragic events of 1984 Siri Singh Sahib ji instructed us to hold a wish-and-dish Gurdwara every 6th of the month and to sing the Narayan shabd. He said that “when we’ll perfect (the shabd), Akal Takht will appear by its own force.” In those early days, when Siri Singh Sahib ji gave a command it was (relatively!) easy for me to obey and serve, without questioning.

There are many reasons, at many levels, why we might resonate with this statement. However there is some new information that may help our yogic community with chronic inflammatory issues such as stiffness and pain, allergies, and auto immune issues connected with inflammation.

Our beloved teacher, the Siri Singh Sahib Yogi Bhajan, taught us many things. One of his favorite topics was DEATH. He taught us how to die consciously. He taught us that there was never a bad death, that it was always a blessing, and a completion of one’s karmas in life. He taught us that death was a celebration of the life lived and of the soul’s continued journey. I believed what he said because his words made sense to me and because of my love and trust in him.
