Also, we request each zone to send 5 to 10 volunteers one week before the celebration who can coordinate and plan activities with their respective zones.

PREPARING YOURSELF FOR THE CELEBRATIONS

We encourage you to practise intensely in preparation for attending the celebration. Please take regular sittings, be absorbed in the meditative state as much as possible, read the Mission literature, and make positive suggestions in your free time, including:

Everyone is developing correct thinking,
right understanding and an honest approach to life.
They are attaining rightness in action and perfection in character.

Everything surrounding us, the air particles, people, the birds, the trees…
everything around us is deeply absorbed in Godly remembrance.
All are in Osmosis with the Source developing increased peacefulness and moderation.

We are looking forward to working and being together in joy and gratitude to celebrate Pujya Lalaji Maharaj’s birth anniversary in a grand manner.
